I finally got around to coding out the error codes that show up when upgrading the tail lights on y 2016 F56 MINI Cooper JCW from the circle lights to the Union Jack ones.
I use bimmercode (you should buy the full version of this app to support the developer on his awesome work!) and a vgate bluetooth ODB connector with my smartphone. Below are the steps needed:
1. Plug in ODB connector and connect via bluetooth to your phone
2. Launch the Bimmercode app
3. Go into the Front Electronic Module/Car Access System category in basic mode
4. In the voltage monitoring section, make sure the Tail Light Monitoring is set to LED and not monitoring
5. Change into expert mode
6. Go to the 3061 LcxOutputChannels2 section
7. Find and set BL_R_IS_LED = aktiv
8. Find and set BL_R_WARMUEBERWACHUNG = nicht_aktiv
9. Find and set BL_R_KALTUEBERWACHUNG = nicht_aktiv
10. Find and set BL_L_IS_LED = aktiv
11. Find and set BL_L_WARMUEBERWACHUNG = nicht_aktiv
12. Find and set BL_L_KALTUEBERWACHUN = nicht_aktiv
13. Now tap the code button in the app.
14. Your ECU may restart and your engine will shut off.
15. Power off the car.
16. Power back on the car and you should not see any errors!

Just to say that the latest version of BimmerCode ver. 3.0 (9401) is a lot different than described by The Mini Vlog. It is in English not German. Select 'Body Domain Controller'/Voltage Monitoring/Adaptive Brake/Brake/Indicators Rear, then choose LED and NON-Active monitoring. The new version appears to adjust both LH and RH lights together. Also in this version, these settings do not require to go into expert mode. Depending on latest Pre 2018 facelift model you have, the Tail Lights may already be set for LED.

Thanks for this it was huge help and appreciate its a few years old now but still really useful. Share my experience with uk 2017 cooper s 5 door 67 reg. I think the model was near a big update so already has some rear led lights but not brakes and reverse. Used the latest version of bimmercode and as previous poster it is a lot easier now. Some of my rear light settings were already set to led but i went via BODY DOMAIN CONTROLLER and then there is a long list including LED CONVERSION. I had to change the brake lights and brake force display and reversing lights all to active. The other tail light settings were already active. Coded and the car reset. That was it all working. Thanks again.

Nice work 👍🏻 My lights are still showing errors, and BMW here in uk, are suggesting additional wires may be required. I’ve been told by my dealership that electrical current is pulled, so the error isn’t the only problem they are having. I still love my mini I just wish I’d known about it before I installed, I’ll put up with it for now and see what they say in future.

I've installed the UJ lights today on my UK 2017 F56 JCW and made the code changes suggested here and everything has worked fine. I did read in a couple of places that you need to already have LED lights to replace with UJ LED's, but I've not explored this any further as mine seem to work ok. I used an iPhone XS Max with Bimmercode and vgate WiFi OBD2 adapter to make the changes. I think there is maybe a typo in step 6 above, as I found the expert settings in 3061 not 3016. Not sure if this is specific to a UK Mini. Also for step 3 had to go to "Body Domain Controller" ECU and the section was "Voltage Monitoring", but this was easy to find and again not sure this is UK specific or affected by some other software version onboard.

One thing people should know about aftermarket tail lights is if you previously programmed your rear reflectors to be brake lights, this will mess with a lot of aftermarket lights and the brakes won't work which will cause the same error. You must code the rear reflectors to the original: 3065 in Body Domain Controller - MAPPING_BREMSL_2_L_OUTPUT/MAPPING_BREMSL_2_R_OUTPUT must be set to "bfd_L"

I have a 2022 Countryman with all red plastic union jack rear lights. When turn signals used, following cars see right light lit but image of red arrow pointing left; when left rear light for turn used, following cars see red arrow pointing right. Can the steps shown here correct these errors so a yellow sideways T has the long end of the T flashing in the direction of the turn? Please let me know and where in the Washington, DC or New York City area I can go to have the process using BDO connector done on my car.

Today I randomly got chatting to a guy from Munich who owns a mini, turns out he works for BMW, he says it’s BS what I’ve been told, and that I should go ahead and just get the error removed. I trust what he says as he is a project manager and seemed very knowledgeable. I’ll go back once again to “Dick Lovett - BMW dealership here in uk” and insist they do it. Ps.. yes that’s actually their name.. no jokes

Hey there! I successfully added and coded the new LEDs to my 2016s but when I got the JCW tuning kit, the dealership reset the code, tried their own LED conversion code and now they don't work. They light up but do not work when stepping on the brake or for indicators or hazards. I have tried all the settings in Bimmer Code and can't seem to get them going... Any ideas are greatly appreciated. If I can't figure it out, I'll have to go back to the dealer to get them to reset my coding, allow me to code the LEDS with the app and then have them re-apply the JCW tuning... Not ideal. Please help. :)

That one is compatible with bimmercode and Android. I do have an issue with mine where I connect it via Bluetooth to the phone but it never shows a Bluetooth device is connected in the toolbar at the top. Despite that it will be available to bimmercode when I launch that. Are you using Android? Does it connect to your phone in Bluetooth and not show up?

Hi there I have just had my mini at the BMW dealership to have the Union Jack lights installed on my Mini Cooper S 2017. They keep telling me they can't code the brake lights to work due to my after market apple carplay installed. Have you heard this or should I just try coding this myself?

Hi ! I have a Mini Cooper F55 (5 doors Hatch) from April 2018, and I just swapped the originals taillights to UJ lights. I've succeded in fixing the blinking light, using your tips and Bimmercode app. But unfortunately, I always have the same error message on the control panel : "left brake lamp and right brake lamp malfunction".

There's an issue where the brake light overrides the blinker here in the US market with full red led uj lights (the UK/EU uj lights have the amber horizontal bar for blinker and narrow vertical bar closest to the license plate for brake lights so they don't have the issue). Please have someone in the car while you record the video and have them turn on the blinker annd leave it blinking and then apply brakes and hold the brakes. In my case that caused the brake light to light up and stop blinking which could cause serious issues in traffic. As soon as the brake is released the blinker starts blinking again. There's is a code for that too on one of the forums so I was able to change it and now it works as intended but everyone please confirm that you don't have this issue and if you do please change it - I forgot the exact code since I did it like 6-8 months ago but if you guys need it let me know and I'll find it and post it. Stay safe all.

1. Go into Body Domain Controller and stay in basic mode 2. Set the following to Not Active in the voltage monitoring section: Reversing light left warm monitoring Reversing light left cold monitoring Reversing light right warm monitoring Reversing light right cold monitoring 3. Code and test I think maybe just warm monitoring would do it but set both cold and warm to cover all the bases here. Give it a try for a couple days and let me know. My next step would be to set it from bulb to LED but I'm not sure that is correct as I think the reverse is actually a bulb.

What is it that the error is showing? I’m guessing i still have brake lights but something looks different in the back
