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"
Accurate emissions monitoring starts with dependable components like the Cummins ISL, QSB, QSL PM Sensor 2017–2024, OEM Part Number 5461628. Designed for compatibility with select Cummins ISL, QSB, and QSL engines, this particulate matter sensor measures soot levels within the aftertreatment system to support proper emissions control. Manufactured to meet OEM specifications, it provides precise fitment and consistent communication with the engine control module. A faulty PM sensor can trigger warning lights, fault codes, or incorrect soot readings, potentially affecting overall system operation. Tamerx Diesel Products LLC supplies trusted diesel components to help keep your Cummins engine operating cleanly and reliably.

Modern diesel engines rely on advanced aftertreatment monitoring, and the Cummins ISL, QSB, QSL PM Sensor OEM 5461628 plays a vital role in that system. The PM (Particulate Matter) sensor is designed to monitor soot levels in the exhaust stream and help ensure proper Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) function.
The sensor is typically installed downstream of the DPF. Its main purpose is to detect particulate matter levels and confirm that the filter is effectively capturing soot.
Here’s how the Cummins PM Sensor works step by step:
- Exhaust gases pass through the DPF
- Cleaned exhaust flows past the PM sensor
- The sensor detects any remaining soot particles
- Electrical signals are generated based on soot concentration
- Data is sent to the engine control module (ECM)
Inside the sensor, a sensing element measures changes in electrical conductivity caused by particulate accumulation. As soot particles contact the sensor element, resistance changes. The ECM interprets this data to determine whether the DPF is functioning properly.
If soot levels downstream are higher than expected, the system may trigger a regeneration cycle or set a diagnostic fault code. This helps prevent emissions system failures and ensures compliance with emissions standards.
The OEM 5461628 PM sensor is engineered specifically for compatible Cummins ISL, QSB, and QSL engines built between 2017 and 2024, ensuring accurate monitoring and proper integration with the aftertreatment system.
When functioning correctly, the PM sensor supports effective DPF operation, timely regeneration events, and reliable emissions control.
The Particulate Matter (PM) sensor monitors soot levels in the exhaust system and helps the aftertreatment system determine when regeneration is needed. Because it operates in a high-heat and high-soot environment, it can become contaminated over time.
Whether a PM sensor is serviceable depends on the type of failure.
In some cases, the PM sensor may be serviceable if the issue involves:
-
Soot buildup on the sensor probe
-
Clogged sensing lines (if equipped)
-
Loose or corroded electrical connectors
-
Damaged wiring outside the sensor housing
Cleaning external soot buildup or repairing wiring issues may restore proper function if the internal electronics are still operating correctly.
However, replacement is typically required if there is:
- Internal sensor circuit failure
- Persistent fault codes after cleaning
- Failed calibration or relearn procedures
- Cracked or heat-damaged sensor housing
- Water intrusion inside the unit
Because the PM sensor contains sensitive internal electronics, it is generally not repairable once internal components fail.
A professional diagnostic evaluation is important. A technician will scan for fault codes, review sensor readings, and verify proper communication with the engine control module to determine whether cleaning is possible or replacement is necessary.
Early diagnosis improves the chance that minor issues can be corrected before full sensor failure occurs.
