Product Description

This Sebring SWITCH TEMP SENSOR 2PIN is designed for BMW vehicles and plays a crucial role in monitoring engine temperature. The sensor features a brass threaded body with a 2-pin rectangular connector, ensuring a secure fit and reliable electrical connection. It is installed in the engine cooling system to accurately detect temperature changes and relay this information to the vehicle's control unit.

This specific temperature switch is compatible with select BMW models. To ensure the correct fitment, please confirm your BMW's model, year, engine size, and engine code before placing an order.

A failing temperature switch can lead to inaccurate temperature readings, causing issues such as overheating, erratic gauge behaviour, or inefficient cooling fan operation. Common symptoms include fluctuating temperature readings, warning lights on the dashboard, or the radiator fan not activating when needed.

If you notice any of these symptoms, it is important to replace the switch promptly to prevent potential engine damage. Always disconnect the battery and allow the engine to cool before attempting replacement. Consult your vehicle's manual or a qualified technician for guidance if needed.

MiMi Auto Parts supplies reliable automotive components and offers nationwide delivery throughout South Africa. Shop with confidence knowing you are getting parts suited for your BMW's requirements.
