It uses a 4-wire heated sensor element to reach operating temperature faster and provide reliable voltage readings to the engine control module (ECM). The part references include 250-24546, 234-4488 and 11787548961 for easy cross-checking against service parts lists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich Mini models and years does this sensor fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis sensor covers a range of Mini Cooper 1.6L engines across several model years, including Cooper, Countryman and Paceman variants. Fitment spans naturally aspirated and turbocharged N12\/N14\/N16\/N18 engine codes listed by the manufacturer. Always verify your vehicle’s part number or compare plug and threads before ordering to ensure compatibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with 2007–2010 Cooper L4 1.6L (N14B16A\/N12B16A)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFits 2009–2016 Cooper and Countryman variants with N14\/N16\/N18 engines\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlso listed for 2013–2015 Cooper Paceman L4 1.6L models\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCross-references: 250-24546, 234-4488, 11787548961\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the 4-wire heated design benefit performance?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe four-wire layout separates two heater leads from the signal and ground, allowing the sensor to warm up quickly and maintain correct operating temperature. Faster heating reduces the time the ECM runs in open-loop mode, helping fuel trims normalize sooner. The heated element also helps produce stable oxygen voltage under a wider range of exhaust temperatures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo wires for heater power and ground for rapid warm-up\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSignal and reference ground wires for accurate voltage output\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded mounting matches OEM spec for straightforward installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHeated design reduces cold-start inaccuracies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat are the physical and electrical specifications?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sensor ships as a single unit in a protective box and uses a male connector compatible with factory wiring. Its threaded mounting and heated ceramic sensing element follow typical OEM construction to ensure a secure, leak-free fit in the exhaust flange or bung.
