if the thermostat was replaced, it could be faulty again or the connector is the issue.

Make sure the connectors were plugged in correctly with the thermostat. If they're switched, it'll trigger a fault. I see this often when individuals replace the t-stat. You can also plug into the DME and see if your MINI is getting to operating temp, 220F.
