SHIPPING POLICY
Tamerx Diesel Products ships via UPS Ground. Next day air shipping can be arranged for a reasonable price of anywhere from $50.00 - $100.00 depending on the weight of the product and your location. We will do everything we can to make sure that you get the service you need. We understand how important it is to receive your order as quickly as possible.
In most cases Tamerx Diesel Products only needs one address, as long as your product is shipping to the same location as your billing information. In order to eliminate credit card fraud, your billing information must match the credit card you provide.
The terms, conditions, and details of our warranty vary from product to product. Specific warranty details can be found below.
Tamerx Diesel Products provides a replacement warranty on all of our parts. The duration and mileage limitations of the warranty vary by product and are specified on the product's detail page/item listing.
Please note that the warranty covers replacement of the part and the cost of shipping the replacement part to you only. It does not cover any shop, labor, towing, or any similar or related costs. This is not a "money back guarantee".
If you experience a problem with your part or it is not functioning properly, the correct warranty procedure is to call us at (510) 257-1777 (8:00 AM - 5:00 PM ET Monday through Friday). Be sure to have your order number and/or other relevant order information ready so we can easily locate your order and resolve your issue as quickly as possible. From that point, we will review with you any troubleshooting steps that may need to be taken and other areas or systems that can be checked to rule out external problems contributing to your part's issue. If a replacement is determined to be necessary, we will then arrange for your replacement part to ship out ASAP and issue any necessary return shipping labels and/or documents.
As is the case for the majority of the diesel products sold on Tamerx Diesel Products, your part's warranty is active as soon as you install it. In some other cases, warranty activation is contingent upon you sending us your core (i.e., your old part). Tamerx Diesel Products will provide you a return shipping label for parts that have a warranty with a core return condition. When we have received your core return, the part's warranty coverage begins. We reserve the right to void the product warranty if your core is not received within the allotted time, or if it isn't received at all. If the warranty for the diesel part you are purchasing has a core return requirement, it will be clearly noted on the product detail page/item listing.
What is a Core Charge?
A core charge (also called "core deposit") is similar to the deposit you might pay for a can or bottle of soda and is a standard requirement in the auto parts industry. For example, in many states, to promote recycling, you pay a deposit when you purchase a can of soda and receive your deposit back when you return the empty can. Many automotive parts have a core charge, or core price, that works in essentially the same way as a soda can deposit.
30 Day Core Charge Hold
You authorize Tamerx Diesel Products, to hold your credit card for the specified core charge amount and that you agree to return your core with 30 days of receiving the purchased part. When we have received your core return, the hold is released and the core charge payment is canceled.
"This Product Doesn't Have a Core"
Monitoring temperature within the engine or exhaust system, the Cummins QSB 6.7L Temp Sensor 2013–2018 (OEM 5698557) is designed for compatibility with select Cummins QSB 6.7L diesel engines. This sensor provides critical temperature data to the engine control module, helping regulate system functions and maintain proper operation. Manufactured to meet original equipment specifications, it is engineered for accurate readings and reliable communication with the vehicle’s electronic systems. The durable construction is built to withstand the high heat and demanding conditions commonly found in diesel applications. Replacing a faulty or inaccurate sensor with the OEM 5698557 helps maintain proper system monitoring and supports consistent engine function.

The Cummins QSB 6.7L Temperature Sensor (OEM 5698557) is an important component that monitors temperature levels within the engine or exhaust system. It sends real-time data to the engine control module (ECM), allowing the system to make necessary adjustments to maintain proper operating conditions.
This sensor helps ensure that critical systems are working within safe temperature ranges.
How the Cummins QSB 6.7L Temp Sensor Works
- Measures temperature in real time
- The sensor detects temperature levels in a specific area, such as the exhaust or coolant system.
- Uses internal resistance changes
- As temperature increases or decreases, the sensor’s electrical resistance changes accordingly.
- Sends signals to the ECM
- These resistance changes are converted into signals that the engine control module can interpret.
- ECM adjusts system operations
- Based on the data received, the ECM can adjust fuel delivery, timing, or emissions system behavior.
- Monitors for abnormal conditions
- If temperatures go beyond normal ranges, the system may trigger warnings or protective actions.
The Cummins QSB 6.7L Temp Sensor OEM 5698557 plays a key role in maintaining safe and consistent engine operation. By providing accurate temperature data, it helps the ECM manage engine and emissions system functions, reducing the risk of overheating and ensuring proper system performance.
A temperature sensor plays an important role in monitoring engine and exhaust system temperatures. It sends data to the engine control module, helping regulate fuel delivery, emissions systems, and overall engine operation. Unlike regular maintenance items, temperature sensors are not replaced on a fixed schedule—they are typically replaced only when they fail or show signs of inaccuracy.
In many vehicles, a temperature sensor can last 100,000 miles or more, but its lifespan can vary depending on operating conditions and exposure to heat.
Several factors can affect how long a temperature sensor lasts, including:
- Constant exposure to high temperatures in the engine or exhaust system
- Electrical wear or corrosion in connectors and wiring
- Contamination from oil, coolant, or exhaust deposits
- Vibration and normal wear over time
Instead of replacing it at a set interval, it’s important to watch for signs that the sensor may be failing. These can include warning lights, incorrect temperature readings, or issues with engine or emissions system operation.
If a temperature sensor begins to fail, it should be replaced promptly to ensure accurate readings and proper system function. Regular diagnostics and inspections can help identify sensor issues early and prevent further complications.
It transmits electronic temperature data used by the engine control module for system management.
They confirm compatibility by matching OEM number 5698557 with the engine model and production years.
Cummins OEM 5698557 is a temperature sensor designed to monitor exhaust or aftertreatment temperatures in QSB 6.7L engines.
The engine control module relies on this sensor to receive accurate temperature readings for system adjustments.
