Detailed Product Description

The Vemo Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor V20-72-0566 is engineered with an oval connector shape and two poles, providing reliable electrical connections for accurate temperature readings. Measuring 51 mm in height, 30 mm in length, and 18 mm in width, this compact sensor fits precisely within the cooling system of Mini Cooper vehicles. The sensor uses a Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC) design, which means its resistance decreases as the temperature rises, allowing the engine control unit to monitor coolant temperature effectively.

This sensor is part of the VEMO product line, known for its focus on precision and durability in automotive sensors and components. The VEMO line ensures compatibility and performance tailored to specific vehicle models, including the Mini Cooper series, making it a suitable replacement part for maintaining engine temperature regulation.
