NEW GUY! Help... Water in BTTY CMPT
Hello all... I am new to this forum and been searching for answers the last couple of days and haven't been able to locate it. Forgive me if it somewhere in here and just over looked. I have a 2002 Mini Cooper S that I recently found water in the battery compartment. I did not realize this until it was too late. Long story short, car died while driving. Started to clean up area and notice 4 wires broken going to 2 small connectors below the battery cable. I cannot open the hatch due to not having a manual release. I attempted putting a charger up front under the hood and an extra battery to get some type of power to be able to open the hatch to no success. Does anyone have any thoughts? Second question is does anyone have a wiring diagram so I can fix the four broken wires?

There is a manual release cable below the rear seat cushion. It pops up. It is held down with spring clips. That will get you into the back. I drilled a drain hole in mine when I discovered this on mine. I would go to the wrecking yard and buy the piece of wire and plugs and splice it in. Solder and shrinkwrap.

Also if you're interested I found the leak in my trunk to be coming from the seams in the corner of the floor.
(Passenger side floor corner of the trunk behind the trim) water came from here.

Get a code reader and clear the codes and see which ones remain after starting/driving. Or get an auto parts store to clear them for you. (Write them down before you clear them) and the ones that come back are the only important ones.

He's not going to be able to clear that DSC/ASC TPMS lights with a generic reset tool.
