A bunch of electrical problems...
Hi all,
The other day I got a red warning light of a MINI on a jack, and noticed the following issues on my R56:
-Background lights on the speedo and tach gone
-Turn signals sound is gone when engaged
-Both windows do not open (they do dip and go back up when I open/close the doors)
-Sport button has no effect on the throttle anymore (the steering still becomes heavier)
-Hill start assist gone
-Light on the ceiling does not light up when the doors are opened (it still lights up if I turn it on with the light switch)
Everything else works 100%. Any idea how I can fix these issues? I checked all the fuses and they are all good.
Thanks!!

There a few posts on here that have assorted electrical issues and the fix turned out that the battery was in need of replacement. I see that you have an '08.
I'm told the battery lasts 4-5 years. If you have your original battery, I would replace it.
Try searching this forum for more information.
