Body control unit

hello guys,

i was wondering, is the FRM in mini cooper S 2007 is the same as the BCU or BCM? i was looking online for the location of BCU in my mini but I did not get anything, all what i found is that BCM should be on the passenger side footwell but all what i have is fuses box.
could it be BCM and FRM are the same for Gen 2 mini?

thanks

The footwell module is located in the footwell on the driver's side,not passenger side.

The following components deliver signals for the footwell module:
  • Height sensors
  • Reversing light switch
  • Brake light switch
  • Hazard warning flasher switch
  • Light switch
  • Driver’s door switch block
  • Door contacts in front doors
  • Driver’s door lock

thsnk you,
so they are the same in R56.
my mini's hatch is opening by itself, i find oline that it can be a problem with the body control unit but I have a new one and the footwell is not responsible for the hatch i think.
