What's Included

This is a genuine BMW flat spring contact microtimer w/ cable, part number 12 52 0 007 251. The number stamped on the part is 12520007251; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 0007251. You will find it on our Electrical shelf, under Other Engine Electrical System parts. It supersedes the older numbers 0141124 and 1732175, so a part carrying any of them is the same part.

It fits every E36 body style (318i, 318ti, 320i, 323i and 325i, 1992–1999), with the M40, M42, M43, M44, M50 or M52 engines — and the European-market versions.

BMW draws it on 10 diagrams, among them Laminated contacts/spring contacts (12_1043) and Laminated contacts/spring contacts (12_1150). BMW lists the quantity used as “as required”. It weighs about 4 g (under 0.1 lb). It also comes in BMW kits Repair kit (0492917) and Repair cable ABS (9061686).

We have not had one on the shelf yet. Request it and we will tell you when one comes off a car.
