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.

The Cummins Temperature Sensor (OEM 6430122) plays a vital role in monitoring heat levels within the engine or exhaust system, ensuring everything operates within safe and controlled conditions. Designed for a wide range of applications from 2011 to 2024, this sensor provides real-time data that the engine relies on for proper operation.
At its core, the sensor tracks temperature changes and communicates that information to the engine control module (ECM). This allows the system to respond quickly to any fluctuations that could affect engine function.
Here’s a closer look at its main role:
- Monitors critical temperature levels
- The sensor continuously measures heat in key areas such as the exhaust or coolant system to ensure temperatures stay within acceptable ranges.
- Sends real-time data to the ECM
- It converts temperature readings into electrical signals that the ECM uses to make informed adjustments.
- Helps prevent overheating or system imbalance
- If temperatures rise too high or drop unexpectedly, the ECM can respond to protect the engine and related components.
- Supports proper emissions system operation
- Accurate temperature data is essential for aftertreatment components to function under the right conditions.
- Contributes to overall engine reliability
- By providing consistent and accurate readings, the sensor helps maintain stable operation across varying conditions.
In simple terms, the Cummins 6430122 temperature sensor acts as a monitoring device that keeps the engine informed about its thermal condition, allowing it to operate safely and efficiently.
Yes, you can still drive with a failing temperature sensor in the short term, but it’s not something you should ignore for long. This sensor plays a key role in monitoring engine temperature, and when it fails, it can send incorrect data to the system.
Without accurate temperature readings, the engine may not adjust properly, which can lead to a range of issues.
Here’s what can happen if you continue driving:
- Incorrect engine temperature readings
- The system may think the engine is hotter or cooler than it actually is, leading to improper adjustments.
- Poor fuel efficiency
- The engine may use more fuel than necessary if it receives inaccurate temperature data.
- Hard starting or rough operation
- A faulty sensor can affect how the engine starts and runs, especially when cold.
- Risk of overheating going unnoticed
- If the sensor fails to detect rising temperatures, you may not get a warning before serious damage occurs.
- Check engine light and fault codes
- The system may trigger alerts due to inconsistent or missing data from the sensor.
Driving a short distance may be manageable, but delaying repairs can lead to bigger problems. Replacing a faulty temperature sensor early helps ensure accurate monitoring and protects your engine from potential damage.
Incorrect data can lead to improper engine adjustments, triggering fault codes, affecting emissions system behavior, and potentially causing inconsistent engine operation.
The sensor is built with heat-resistant and durable materials designed to withstand high temperatures, vibration, and harsh engine environments over extended use.
Typical signs include warning lights, erratic temperature readings, or issues related to emissions system operation caused by inaccurate data.
Yes, inaccurate temperature signals can disrupt aftertreatment processes, leading to inefficient emissions control and potential system alerts.
