Replacing the neutral sensor

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2016 MINI Cooper Countryman, 2015 MINI Cooper Countryman, 2014 MINI Cooper Countryman, 2013 MINI Cooper, and 2012 MINI Cooper. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Always follow the instructions in the "Learn/write neutral sensor" service function when replacing the neutral sensor. Unless the sensor is installed correctly its functionality will be either absent or inaccurate.

Be sure to comply with safety precautions for work on vehicles with MSA! 

Always ensure that the MSA has been switched off in order to prevent an automatic engine start during work in the engine compartment!
