O2 sensor heater

Mini Cooper 2007 Hatchback  151000 miles
The car will start, but only runs for about 5-10 seconds, then dies. Code says the heater for the upstream o2 sensor is faulty. I have tried 3 different and new sensors. Still same code and same results. Any ideas what might cause that?

Did you engage the water pump with the small pull strap has to be pushed in so the water pump pulley engages to the crank pulley

FRM module will cause this to happen as well as different lights to not work. There is a recall on Mini's (2010 and up) on the FRM module in the driver's side footwell. Eventually you'll have spent 1000's and the car won't start. I too changed my fan, battery, a few other components, and then found the recall. My car didn't even have brake lights from time to time. My rad fan wouldn't shut down, etc. I told mini my car was experiencing issues that involved safety and wouldn't start anymore. They gave me a loaner car and fixed it. Otherwise they will make you wait in an invisible line forever while they order parts for all the recalls brought in. You are having issues, you go first. Let them know.
