What is the lifespan of a NOx sensor?
Since the expected life expectancy of the NOx sensor is 2000 hours, it should be taken as a consumable item and any failure after 2000 hours of sensors cannot be claimed against us and MAN ES by our guarantee. The usage time of this sensor is the same as the operating time of the main engine. The NOx sensor may be mounted in different locations within different engines but is most commonly found after the SCR catalyst. This allows the SCR controller to check that NOx levels have dropped to the correct amounts. Some vehicles have pre- and post-SCR sensors, although one is more common.Can I drive with a bad/faulty NOx sensor? No. A faulty NOx sensor may prevent the engine from maintaining its emission standards at an acceptable level, or in more extreme circumstances prevent the engine from starting at all.
What happens if you remove the NOx sensor?
With the NOX sensor Delete, you prevent your car from going into limp mode, annoying fault codes, high maintenance costs when the sensor breaks and more benefits. To reset the NOx sensor, you can start by disconnecting the vehicle’s battery. This will clear the power to the sensor and reset the engine control unit (ECU). It’s important to disconnect both the positive and negative terminals and wait for about 15 minutes before reattaching them.
