Does this Scanner work with MINI Cooper?

The scanner should work with ANY OBD-II system. It may not have "extended" codes for Minis, but you can always look those up on line.

I've never tried but, I would say no, this scanner is for 1996 and newer vehicles

As always, no guarantees, but if the car was manufactured AFTER 1996, it should have the CAN OBD-II protocol built into the computer, which means that any scantool would work just fine. Please search for my full review of this product in order to get a better idea of whether or not this is the right scantool for you. This one has some advanced features that most people don't need, and it also has some features that don't quite work as advertised, which effectively means this unit doesn't quite measure up to some of the other scantools out there in terms of "bang for your buck".

All OBDII compliant vehicles will work with the scanner. Look for the connector under the steering wheel that connects to the scanner. Also ask your dealer if your vehicle is compliant if you can't find an answer. Also try on-line.The scanner will guide you through the process and they have a great instruction guide.

I would recommend consulting directly with the manufacturer for this question, in case there are any differences in models of this vehicle anywhere other than the USA. That being said, the OBD-II protocol is the most widely used protocol for displaying diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs), so it "should" work. Please also see my full review as I have other thoughts and concerns about this particular scantool.

Yes, according to the user's manual: "The MaxiScan Code Reader is specially designed to work with all OBD II compliant vehicles, including those equipped with the nextgeneration protocol -- Control Area Network (CAN). It is required by EPA that all 1996 and newer vehicles (cars and light trucks) sold in the United States must be OBD II compliant and this includes all Domestic, Asian and European vehicles."

Yes. The unit wouldn't automatically sense the car I installed it in and did the same thing. I had to manually program every function.

I have never been in a Mini Cooper, I don't see why not but you might want to check with Britax directly.

It works with all US cars because ODBII interface is required by law. If you are in other country, check if your car has ODBII connector http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On-board_diagnostics

The scanner didn't come with a manual, but I downloaded a pdf of the 140 page manual from the manufacturer. I haven't tried it on any Hondas, but page 95 says it works on 1992-1995 Civics and Preludes, 1995 Odysseys, 1990-1991 Accords and 1994 Accords.

I just tried mine on a 2005 ford focus SE and I was able to read the codes, Check the OBDII Port on the Car, Sometimes they get loose and half push out of the socket, otherwise I would return the scanner for a new one, honestly I have had mine for years, dropped, kicked and pretty much abused it and it still works great?

It should work, we used one on my wife's 2013 mini. It worked fine but "broke" the second day we had it so it got returned. The cable still worked, the connector cover just came off. If I recall it was a snap together piece. We didn't buy another one.

i do not know. i used the disc that came with and could not get it work on either of my computers. I tried the online software and could not get it to work either. I was able to see the scanners control panel but the controls would not respond. I did not bother to research because my problem may have been the pin cord, I bought a cheap one. my recommendation is to use the high dollar pin connector to usb. Radio shack has one for around 60 bucks

This Scan Tool will work on MANY OBDII vehicles. OTC's web site should have the application info. I have used it on all my GM (Chevy and GMC Truck) vehicles as well asJeep and Ford with very good results.

Did you turn your ignition switch (key) to the on position. This will allow the scanner to connect to the cars computer.

It should work irs very universal, if not easy refund process...anyhow here's what I found in detail Compatible with OBDII and CAN vehicles 1996 and newer. Similar to high priced scan tools but half the price.
