Electric Steering Column Adjustment Issue

I had a similar adjustment issue with my Mini's electric steering column. Couldn't adjust it at all. Does the error memory mention anything specific, or just a general fault? Have you checked the fuses related to the electric adjustment? It could be something simple.

The error memory just says 'electric steering column adjustment defective'. I haven't checked the fuses yet, but where exactly are the fuses located that control the electric adjustment? I'll try to check it as soon as possible.

Yeah, mine was the same, just a general error message. I didn't check the fuses myself, I just took it straight to the workshop. Given the error message and your suspicion about the cable, it's probably worth getting it checked out professionally. Could save you a lot of time and frustration.

Just wanted to give a quick update. Took the Mini to the workshop as suggested. They confirmed it was a cable issue with the electric steering column adjustment. Thankfully, they were able to fix the defective cable/plug connection for 95€. Thanks for the heads-up!
