MINI Cooper R60 Engine Control Unit ECU DME 7619332 - Used Original Parts

Quick Answer

A replacement DME is the right fix once the basics are ruled out (battery voltage, main relay, grounds, wiring) and the MINI Cooper R60 still shows no-start, random stalling, or an unresolved communication fault with the engine computer. A tested Genuine used unit makes sense in Malaysia because the dealer-new route is slow and costly for a computer that is matched to the car anyway, while a verified used original gives the same factory hardware and software architecture. Always have the unit synchronised to the car's immobilizer and VIN by a qualified workshop.

Diagnosis and Common Symptoms

The DME (Digital Motor Electronics) is the engine brain of the MINI Cooper R60. It controls injection, ignition timing, throttle, boost or VANOS strategy (depending on engine variant), fuel pump relay, and immobilizer authentication. DME failures are less common than sensor or wiring faults, so diagnose before replacing.

Typical symptoms:

• Engine cranks but never starts, with no injector or ignition activity
• Engine starts then cuts out immediately (immobilizer handshake failure)
• Random stalling or misfire on all cylinders with no mechanical cause
• Engine warning light, EPC or limp mode with reduced throttle response
• Scanner cannot communicate with the DME, or it drops off the bus intermittently
• Fuel pump or main relay not being driven

Fault codes often seen when the DME itself is suspect:

• P0601, P0602, P0606 (internal memory, programming or processor fault)
• P062F (EEPROM error)
• P0641, P0651 (sensor supply voltage faults, check wiring first)
• U0100 (lost communication with the engine control module)
• Immobilizer or key-authorisation errors logged by the CAS/DME pair

Check these before condemning the DME:

1. Battery condition and charging voltage. Low voltage creates false DME faults on the R60.
2. DME main relay, fuses, and the engine ground points.
3. Water or moisture in the connectors. Malaysian heat, humidity, and heavy rain can cause corrosion at the pins and in the plenum area.
4. Wiring harness damage from rodents or previous repairs.

If the power, grounds, and CAN bus lines test good and the DME still fails to respond or reports internal errors, the module is the confirmed fault.

Introduction

This is a Genuine used MINI Cooper R60 Engine Control Unit (DME), removed from a running vehicle and bench-tested before listing. It is a factory original module, not a rebuilt or aftermarket clone, so the hardware matches what your car was built with. Each unit is physically inspected for corrosion, burnt components, and pin damage. The label is checked against the part number so you receive the correct unit.

Product Details

• Brand: MINI (BMW Group)
• Model Compatibility: MINI Cooper R60 (verify by part number 7619332 on the DME label)
• Part Name: Engine Control Unit ECU DME
• Condition: Genuine Used (Tested Working)
• Notes: The DME is tied to the vehicle's immobilizer and VIN. After installation it normally needs ISN/key synchronisation, VIN and coding adaptation with the correct diagnostic tools. Match the full part number on the label, not only the model name. Check the connector pins and the sealing area before installing. Fix any water leak or wiring fault that caused the original failure, or the replacement can be damaged too.
