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 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, 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 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.

DPF regeneration requires controlled exhaust heat to remove accumulated soot. The Cummins X12 Temp Sensor 2021–2026, OEM 5654175, provides temperature information used to monitor aftertreatment operating conditions, making dependable readings important during the regeneration process.
-
Tracks exhaust heat: The sensing element measures temperature at its installation point as exhaust conditions change.
-
Provides electronic feedback: Temperature signals allow the engine control module to assess conditions within the aftertreatment system.
-
Helps evaluate regeneration: Technicians review temperature changes to determine whether the system is developing the heat needed for soot oxidation.
-
Reveals abnormal readings: A signal that stays fixed, changes erratically, or falls outside expected limits can prompt sensor and circuit checks.
-
Works alongside other sensors: Comparing readings across the exhaust system helps distinguish a sensing problem from an actual heating issue.
-
Requires correct placement: Matching OEM 5654175, connector configuration, and installation position helps ensure the replacement measures the intended location.
For customers purchasing from TamerX Diesel Parts, confirming engine compatibility and diagnosing temperature-related faults helps identify the correct Cummins X12 Temp Sensor for aftertreatment service.
A Temp Sensor can fail due to excessive heat exposure, electrical problems, contamination, or gradual component deterioration. In diesel engines and aftertreatment systems, temperature sensors monitor operating conditions and provide important data to the Engine Control Module (ECM). When a sensor becomes damaged or unreliable, it can produce incorrect temperature readings and trigger engine or emissions-related fault codes.
-
Excessive heat exposure: Prolonged exposure to temperatures beyond the sensor's operating limits can damage internal components and reduce measurement reliability.
-
Repeated temperature changes: Continuous heating and cooling cycles can weaken sensor materials, electrical connections, and internal sensing elements over time.
-
Damaged wiring: Frayed wires, melted insulation, or broken electrical connections can interrupt sensor signals and cause inaccurate temperature readings.
-
Corroded connectors: Moisture, road contaminants, and corrosion can affect electrical terminals, resulting in intermittent signals or complete sensor failure.
-
Soot and contaminant buildup: Exhaust soot, oil residue, and other deposits can accumulate on certain temperature sensors, potentially affecting response time and measurement accuracy.
-
Physical damage: Improper installation, excessive vibration, or accidental impact during maintenance can damage the sensor housing, probe, or wiring.
-
Natural component wear: Extended operation and aging can gradually deteriorate internal sensing elements, causing slow responses, inconsistent readings, or complete failure.
A failing Temp Sensor can contribute to check engine lights, incorrect temperature readings, DPF regeneration problems, and recurring aftertreatment fault codes. Inspecting the sensor, checking electrical connections, and comparing live temperature readings with manufacturer specifications can help determine whether the Temp Sensor needs replacement.
Incorrect temperature readings can interfere with the engine control system's ability to monitor Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) regeneration. Depending on the sensor's location and system configuration, a faulty sensor may prevent regeneration from starting or completing properly.
Unusually high readings may result from actual exhaust overheating, electrical faults, or sensor deterioration. Technicians should compare the readings with other available temperature measurements and engine operating conditions.
Yes. An incorrect temperature signal, electrical circuit problem, or sensor communication fault may trigger diagnostic trouble codes and illuminate the check engine light. Diagnostic testing helps determine whether the sensor or another exhaust component is responsible.
The engine control system may lose important temperature data needed for exhaust monitoring and certain aftertreatment operations. Depending on the fault, the system may activate warning indicators or restrict temperature-dependent functions.
