Stock Problems/IssuesDiscussions related to warranty related issues and repairs, or other problems with the OEM parts and software for MINI Clubman (R55), Cooper and Cooper S(R56), and Cabrio (R57).
Greetings Mini folks. I'm in the middle of an engine swap in my R56 (2009 Base). I'm going to a Honda 2.4L. I need to identify what's needed, or worth keeping, in the OE engine harness. I'm looking at the 3 connectors on the DME/ECU; X60004 - should be left alone since it's the connection to the BCM(?), and then I've found 2 different connector numbers for the other 2. X60231 or X60211(brown) and X60232 or X60212(gray). Possibly, the 211 / 212 are for the Base and 231 / 232 are for the S? Regardless they are the standard USDM configuration of 53 pin, 53 pin and 32 pin.
I've seen a few forum posts that show the 3 connectors, but never with a matchup of either numbering or color coding. I can't find a drawing that gives me 100% certainty that it is, in fact, a match. Does anyone have a pinout chart/drawing/diagram for those 2 connectors in bold above, pictured below?
Thank you for your time!

Reason: more info
Thanks Maybe!
The connector diagram is the same that I've seen elsewhere. Based on the blank pin locations, pin 1 is A1? I'm believing it, except that I don't have a wire in pin 1, where the attached chart shows a "Intake VANOS solenoid signal" output. Any thoughts?
Your X60212 connector image below seems to match perfectly with my DME connector pin out attachment because the N12 is unlikely to have the friction wheel signal at pin 8.
