The SC480 is a practical choice when the original sensor has failed or when transmission speed signal issues point to the output shaft sensor.
What It Helps Fix
- Transmission speed signal loss
- Erratic or incorrect output shaft speed readings
- Transmission shifting concerns tied to sensor input
- Diagnostic trouble codes related to the output shaft speed sensor
- Intermittent transmission control communication issues
Installation Notes and Tips
Confirm connector shape, terminal count, and bolt-mount style before installation. Inspect the transmission connector and wiring harness for corrosion, damaged terminals, or broken insulation before fitting the new sensor. On Mini Cooper applications, verify the part number SC480 against the removed sensor and vehicle service information to ensure the correct transmission output shaft speed sensor is selected.
Quality Assurance
Standard Ignition supplies replacement electrical and engine management components for automotive service applications. This SC480 sensor is built to match the listed connector, terminal, and mounting configuration for the specified Mini Cooper fitment.
