Replacement of the outside air temperature sensor of the Mini Cooper.

Model: Mini Mini R57, R55, R56 - Years 2007-2014

In this guide, we will see the steps that will allow us to disassemble and replace the external air temperature sensor of the Mini Cooper. First of all, we lift the car with the jack and remove the front right wheel by unscrewing the bolts; then we unscrew the fixing screws that we find under the front bumper, in order to remove the fender, as shown in the video. At this point, we find the air temperature sensor on the back; we disconnect the electrical connector and remove the sensor from the bumper, replacing it with the new original one, applying the reverse procedure for reassembly!
