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 ISL Temperature Sensor (OEM 5461635) is a small but essential component that monitors temperature levels within the engine or exhaust system and relays that information to the engine control module (ECM). This data is critical for maintaining proper system operation and preventing overheating or imbalance.
The sensor works by detecting changes in temperature and converting those changes into electrical signals. These signals are then sent to the ECM, which uses the information to make real-time adjustments.
Here’s how it works step by step:
- Measures temperature at a specific location
- The sensor is installed in a key area—such as the exhaust or coolant system—where accurate temperature readings are needed.
- Uses internal resistance to detect changes
- As temperature increases or decreases, the sensor’s electrical resistance changes accordingly.
- Converts temperature into an electrical signal
- These resistance changes are translated into voltage signals that can be interpreted by the ECM.
- Sends data to the engine control module (ECM)
- The ECM continuously receives this data and monitors whether temperatures are within acceptable ranges.
- Triggers adjustments or alerts when needed
- If temperatures fall outside normal limits, the ECM can adjust system behavior or trigger warning indicators to prevent damage.
In simple terms, the Cummins 5461635 temperature sensor acts as the engine’s thermometer, constantly monitoring heat levels and communicating with the ECM to help keep the system running safely and efficiently.
Temperature sensors are essential for monitoring engine conditions, but they don’t follow a fixed replacement schedule. Instead, they should be replaced when they begin to provide inaccurate readings or fail completely.
Since the sensor sends critical data to the engine control unit, even small inaccuracies can affect how the engine operates.
Here are common signs that indicate it’s time for a replacement:
- Erratic or inaccurate temperature readings
- If the gauge fluctuates unexpectedly or shows incorrect temperatures, the sensor may be sending faulty data.
- Check engine light or related fault codes
- Diagnostic codes linked to temperature readings often point to a failing or malfunctioning sensor.
- Poor fuel efficiency
- Incorrect temperature data can cause improper fuel adjustments, leading to increased fuel consumption.
- Hard starting or rough operation
- The engine may struggle to start or run smoothly if it’s receiving incorrect temperature input.
- Overheating warnings without clear cause
- False alerts or inconsistent warnings can be a sign that the sensor is no longer reliable.
Regular inspection can help catch these issues early. Replacing a faulty temperature sensor at the right time ensures accurate readings and helps maintain proper engine operation.
A failing sensor can cause inaccurate readings, which may lead to fault codes, improper engine adjustments, and irregular behavior in emissions-related systems.
Yes, it is built to OEM specifications, ensuring proper fitment and seamless integration with the engine’s electrical and control systems.
Typical signs include warning lights, inconsistent temperature readings, or issues related to emissions system operation and diagnostics.
The sensor is designed to operate in a wide temperature range, typically from approximately -40°F to around 160°F or higher depending on the application.
