This Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) Level Sensor is integral to the Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system, monitoring the quantity of DEF in the tank. It ensures the SCR system has sufficient DEF to effectively reduce harmful NOx emissions from the exhaust. A malfunctioning sensor can lead to inaccurate DEF level readings, potentially disabling the SCR system and causing the engine to derate or shut down due to emissions compliance requirements.

Inspect mating surfaces for wear before fitting. Use torque specs from service manual. Replace gaskets and seals as a set — reusing compressed gaskets causes oil leaks. Clean all oil passages with compressed air.
Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.
The most common symptom of a failing DEF level sensor is an incorrect or fluctuating DEF level displayed on the instrument panel. The system may also trigger a DEF level warning light or message, even if the tank is full. If the issue persists, the SCR system may become inactive, leading to engine power reduction (derate) to comply with emissions regulations.
Ensure the DEF tank is clean and free of any contaminants before installing the new sensor. Do not force the sensor into place; it should seat smoothly with proper alignment.
Inspect the DEF tank for sediment and clean the DEF lines if the sensor replacement is due to persistent DEF system faults.
