P2608 ODB error code
Hello everyone!
I’m out here in Guam, USA & I have a 2013 Mini Cooper S R56 hatchback with 17.5k miles on it that I recently purchased a few months ago and I’m starting to have issues.
Last 7 of vin is T389350
Check engine light is on and…
I got an ODB code P2068 Fuel Level Sensor B Circuit High
Does anyone know if that code is for the fuel pump side or the fuel filter side?
I’ve read online that B circuit corresponds with fuel pump side not sure if there’s an A circuit and if so would that correspond to the fuel filter side?
Should I just change the entire fuel pump and/or the fuel filter (it seems they both have fuel level sensors on them)?
Also I have ODB code P0597 Thermostat Heater Control
Circuit / Open that I discovered a few weeks ago when check engine light came on but it went off by itself 2 days later (same day I brought it to mechanic…luck of the Irish I guess ) but it’s still there when the check engine light came on again this time and I ran my ODB to see what’s up…
Would it be recommend to just change the thermostat assembly to clear that code?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance
Scotty

Hello)
For the P2068 code - Fuel Level Sensor B Circuit High - you're correct that the "B" typically corresponds to the fuel pump side. If there's an "A" circuit, it would likely be related to the fuel filter side https://techbehindit.com/automotive/...trol-unveiled/. Since both the fuel pump and fuel filter have fuel level sensors, it might be worth considering changing both if you're uncertain.
Now, for the P0597 code - Thermostat Heater Control Circuit/Open - it's interesting that it cleared itself previously. However, if it's showing up again, changing the thermostat assembly might indeed be a good idea to prevent potential issues down the road. It's always better to address these things proactively.

17,000 miles and already having errors? ahhh BMW...
Check your circuit integrity first. Dont just throw parts at a barely used car. Guam = salt air. Check for corrosion at your grounds in the engine. (I just posted about that) Then do a load test on the fuel pump and thermostat power circuit. T
hat car barely moves if its only got 17k miles over 10 years which means it might have rodent damage to wires. It happens all the time.
