Detailed Description

Delphi brings OE heritage and more than a century of original-equipment experience to this crankshaft position sensor. The SS12005 is engineered for select 2002-2008 Mini Cooper models and is built to deliver the crankshaft position signal the engine control system relies on for timing and performance calculations. If you are replacing a failed Mini Cooper crankshaft sensor, this part number provides a direct-fit service option backed by Delphi’s OE-focused manufacturing background.

This part cross-references Standard Ignition PC797 for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Crankshaft position sensor fault codes
• Hard starting or no-start conditions
• Intermittent stalling or engine cut-out
• Rough running caused by an unstable crank signal
• Check engine light related to crankshaft position input

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector shape, terminal count, and sensor location before installation. Inspect the harness connector for corrosion, bent terminals, or damaged locking tabs, since electrical issues can mimic sensor failure. Clear diagnostic trouble codes after installation and confirm proper engine operation during a road test.

Quality Assurance

Delphi builds this sensor using OE experience and supplier knowledge developed through work with major automakers. The SS12005 reflects that OE heritage in an aftermarket replacement part for Mini Cooper applications.
