MINI CAS / FRM / DME Clone (Mail-In)

MINI R50/R52/R53 BCM Clone
$250

MINI R50/R52/R53 BCM Clone

Dead BCM on a first-generation MINI, or a used one you plugged in that the car flat-out refuses? Mail in your original plus a matched donor and we clone the config, coding, and immobilizer data across on the bench so the replacement drops in and works.

MINI FAQ

Brand-specific questions.

Why is MINI the same as BMW for this?
BMW owns MINI and the R55-R61 and F-series cars use the same CAS, FRM3 and DME hardware, so the same bench procedures apply.
My MINI windows and lights died — is that the FRM?
Almost always. The FRM3 controls windows, turn signals, hazards, exterior lighting and wipers. We clone or repair it so the donor is plug-and-play.
Do I need a donor module?
Send a same-generation donor (FRM3 to FRM3, CAS3 to CAS3) or ask us to source one. The clone copies your data onto it.
Will the cloned module need dealer coding?
No. The clone preserves VIN and coding, so it drops in plug-and-play without ISTA.
