Still having trouble getting the power to it. Mine is the Japanese version without the alarm (as far as I know). Someone posted on this forum a month or so ago (when I thought I had myproblems solved)  that they had an SPI wiring harness available.

If anyone has one, please let me know so I can see if it will work. I'll be in the states at the end of the month.

Richard:

All I have pictures of are MPi, but this is on theminiforum:

Some diagrams that may be of help.

Any chance someone can snap a picture of their connector to show what wires go in which part of the connector?

I've ordered the relay from the UK. Can anyone send a picture like this one that shows the wire colors in their correct positions. ( yes, I have the diagram, but a color picture will be much safer)

I figured out what I'm missing, and I'm afraid it is a big delay. They did not send the Engine Relay Module, so no way to connect the power to the computer. According to the chat operator here, Minimania does not stock them, so I'll have to get it from the UK.

What exactly it does - I cant not advise

But is seen in This picture- On fire wall - Above the Fuel HOses (with the green tag) beside the two relays.

 and it does come off the "engine harness " up to a body harness that runs under the cowel and wiper assembly- looks like into the cabin.

Is this the main connector that connects the engine compartment to the cabin power, dash, etc? I;m at the point of trying to get power to the computer and all.
