Mini Countryman AC Issues
Summary of the thread
A 2013 Mini Countryman experienced issues with the AC not cooling, with an error indicating a fault in the rear ventilation flap. The problem was suspected to be a bad cable or plug. After consulting with others who had similar issues, it was suggested to check the flap actuator and run system diagnostics. The solution involved replacing a defective connection on the rear ventilation flap actuator, which resolved the AC cooling problem.

Diagnostics? What exactly did you check, and where is this flap actuator located?

Yes, the error code pointed to the flap actuator. I didn't do the repair myself. I took it to a workshop. They replaced the connector, and the air distribution was back to normal. I recommend getting it checked. It might be a simple fix.

Just wanted to update. You were spot on. Took my Mini Countryman to the shop and they found a defective connection on the rear ventilation flap actuator. 95€ later and the AC is working again. Thanks!

I had a similar problem with my Mini Countryman. The air distribution was off, and the AC wasn't cooling properly. Have you run any system diagnostics to check for error codes related to the car HVAC?
