2011 335i E92 N55 TMAP Swap
Hey folks I was wondering if it is possible to swap TMAP sensors on a 2011 E92 N55 from an "A" style to the "B" style.
I am asking because I have been on the search for a used JB4 G2 for the car and having a difficult time finding one with an "A" harness, it seems the "B" is more available on the second hand market. I thought it might just be easier to swap the TMAP sensor to the "B" style. Can this be done? Thanks in advance for your help Cheers |

The connector end from the car wiring would also require it to be Type B. So even if you have a B sensor, and a B jb4, u may need to cut off your OEM A connector and reconnect a B connector on it to be able to go into the jb4 wiring for the B type.
Hope that makes sense, instead of chopping any of the cars original wiring, I would just find the appropriate JB4 you need. On that note: I *think* Burger sells a A to B adapter for the wiring end, and if they do, then you can buy that and a B sensor and B jb4. At which point you may as well have bought it new? |

Or modify your connector like I did..... All you need is a Dremel... grind away a few tabs, and inside guides on the harness, and you're done. Took 8.3 minutes.

When u cut out the guides on the inside of the harness, does that let you flip the orientation of the plug so the wires match up properly? I have a 2013 335i with pwg and bought an A harness instead of the B harness I need. If it's just a dremel cut and removing the inner notch/tab I wouldn't mind giving it a shot.
