I need to replace the whole thing not just the bulb. Do you think it would be plug and play and the error message would go away? Should I disconnect the battery during?
It should go away if everything is installed properly and nothing is faulty. I had the same issue, error message was showing but then realized I didn’t have one of the bulbs was not installed properly. After fixing it, the message disappeared on its own
Hi Emmanuel, I do not know. I think if you call Mini service department they will be able to answer your question. Hope you can find the answer you are looking for :)
Hiii thank you for the helpful video, do you know where to buy the lamp holder ? i think mine is not working cuz i changed the lamp and its still not working :(
Hi, make sure the bulb and holder are tightened properly and there’s no issues there first before purchasing the holder. I’d suggest calling mini dealership and ask them for the part number and price and they should provide that info. Later you can search the part number online and find the best deals.
Hi! Thanks for sharing... do you mind sharing how to remove the bulb from the holder? tried to remove it but it is fitted quite snugged. dont dare to twist or pull the bulb out. 😅
Hi Ryan! To be honest I remember having a little bit of difficulty myself and even breaking a small piece off when I tried to remove the bulb and it’s housing. If I remember correctly there are like two claws holding the housing in place and you have to separate them but be very careful to not break them. It’s a pain in the back lol good luck!
The rear bumper actually has to be replaced on my mini and ordered the part but received the wrong bumper and I haven’t received the new bumper yet. Long story short I think I recorded the bumper removal on my phone but I have to dig in my archives to find it. I’ll post it as soon as I find the recordings.
Great video! Thank you! As others have said, these bulbs are incredibly expensive for what they are. Standard bulbs, you'd get change out of a couple of quid. Yet another money spinner from the car industry and overcomplicated something that used to be so simple!
I had replace the bulb and the socket, it was something else, took it the dealer and it was a circuit card and lucky me I had a CPO warranty. The bulb I kept for the next time.
No need to take it to dealership. You need to make sure all the light bulb housings have a bulb in them and they're tight in their place. I had the same issue and after playing with the bulbs, the error went away.
Thank you for this great info video! I am from Kyiv, Ukraine, and your video helped a lot 👍 I managed to solve the problem myself and saved time and money.
Bought 2 Phillips pw24w 24w 12v bulbs fitted them both correct but neither are working for some reason no idea why I’ve noticed the actual bulb shape is slightly different than the original one I’ve taken out maybe that’s the problem
Did you sort this? I have the same issue but I tried the working one on the none working side and it doesn’t work at all now. Only have my roof brake light
"Warning: This product may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer" is in the Mikasa Sports shop, the volleyballs of Mikasa cause cancer? Im a little bit confused
I think it’s just to avoid any possible future lawsuits. I’ve seen furniture and decorations with that warning. Personally I just ignore that warning if it’s something that I do not consume.
You can use a ball pressure gauge if that's available to you which is more scientific or you can hold the ball by your forehead and drop it when standing on a hard floor, it should bounce by your waist. if it bounces lower, add some air and if it bounces higher, release some air form the ball. That's the method I use :D
I’ve tried to do the left lightbulb it looks completely different. Not sure I’ve even looked at some of the comments I was in successful in finding the screw.
@@RACKITBALL the left tail light comes out the same as the right. The screw is upwards and difficult to get to or see. If you imagine it as if it is about 10/11 o’clock on a 12 hour clock and you’ll see a little hole. Stick a Phillips screw driver in there and you’ll feel it connect with the screw. Appreciate that your comment is 6 months old so hopefully you’ve sorted it now!
HI Jason, I believe these bulbs are called PW24W, you can find some on eBay. You can also swap the bulbs from the same taillight (that's what I did). There are two bulbs in the same taillight. Other one is there for situations when you have the trunk/boot open, which it will become the turn signal/indicator lights.
It look exactly the same, only angle of the hole which you find the screw is different. You really need to get low on the ground and look up with a flash light
@@peymanjo Yes, I experienced the same and found the screw at that angle. This video really helped me - I can't imagine going to a dealer to change a brake light bulb! The funny thing is that even Halfords took one look and gave up. Thank you!
There are two tiny black clamps (if I’m not wrong) that are holding the bulb. You need to spread them at the same time with a tool or someone’s help and remove the bulb. Be very gentle with it, it can break easily. I broke one of mine.
@@annettcornelison7976 i just went to our local shop and asked if they have an original bmw bulb they then proceeded to give me the phillips alternative
I would say Mikasa V200W is my favorite for a few reasons . It weighs less comparting to Molten, has better visibility and the grip is much better. If you apply the same power when hitting Mikasa and Molten, I can tell you by experience Mikasa will be faster and more accurate. same for when you're setting the ball. Hope this answered your question. please let me know if you have any other questions :)
The bulb will come out, just need to be gentle with it. Each taillight has two bulbs, one which is the break light and not sure why there's another one which doesn't do anything. you can just swap them and everything should work fine.
@@paulandrews5450 You're absolutely right. I believe for safety when the back doors (trunk-boot) are open, those bulbs/lights turn into blinkers. Otherwise they're not working. Thanks Paul!

I own both Mikasa and Molten and I have to say I personally like Mikasa more than it’s rival (Molten). The V200W is slightly lighter and it’s yellow color makes it a lot easier to see. Also I think Mikasa has better grip.
are there any legit online shops to buy this? ive seen some on amazon but their is some reviews that calls them defected and fake

Bulb is pw24w (you can call and confirm with Mini Service Center) You don’t need to replace the housing.

how to tell if the ball is perfectly inflated?
