New Mini Owner
Greetings everyone! I just wanted to introduce myself, and maybe get some help along the way. I have a Chili Red 2011 Mini Cooper S, with 6-Speed, and 74,000 miles on the clock, and N18 engine. I have had the car almost a year, and am in the middle of replacing the thermostat. I am having trouble remembering/figuring out where this green tabbed connection goes. It is on the same harness as the downstream O2 sensor connection (blue with red top). So far, the car has been a blast! Thank you in advance!! Happy motoring!

For the N18 engine, I was able to find eight different 2-pin sensor connectors with an orange wire and a white wire:
Volume control valve
Wastegate valve
Thrust air control valve
Engine breather heater 1
Oil pressure control valve
Map thermostat
VANOS solenoid valve, intake
VANOS solenoid valve, exhaustSome of these can likely be ruled out by location, but why did BMW want to make something so important so difficult?
