What kind of temperature sensor does a Mini Cooper have?

This ‘Angled Type’ Temperature Sensor fits the Thermostat Housing p/n G2NME1129. There are two different types of coolant temperature sensors, a ‘straight’ type sensor (MINIs produced between 2007-02/2013) and an ‘angled’ type for MINIs (produced early 2013 to 2016.)

Where does the coolant temperature ( ECT ) sensor go?

The readings from the engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor; are sent back to the engine control unit (ECU). The engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor is one of the most important; engine management sensors.

What should the coolant sensor resistance be in a cold engine?

In cold engine and an ambient temperature of 20 ºC the sensor resistance is between 2000Ω and 3000Ω. After the engine start, coolant temperature begins to rise. ECT gradually heats and its resistance reduces proportionately.
