Changing the thermostat on my 07' 2500 6.7 and broke the sensor (I think that's what it is). I know this question has probably been asked a bunch but I couldn't locate anything definitive. Could someone tell me what it is (see the picture - TStat_BrokeSensor.jpg)? Thanks in advance.

 

looks like possibly a coolant temp sensor. It's in the tstat housing going to coolant yes?

 

Jigabop, thanks for the reply. I got a couple of other replies from other forums. A couple of folks state the item in question is a exhaust pressure (or drive pressure) or exhaust psi sensor 1.

From LNaugle on http://www.cumminsforum.com - "I think its the exhaust psi sensor or equivalent. I think it helps the exhaust brake work? I'll have to look it up... Yeah that's what it is... exhaust psi sensor 1." and he later confirmed thats what it was and recommended Geno's Garage.

Spoke with Scott at Geno's and he stated they don't have this part and recommended I go back to Cummins and or Dodge for it. I went by Southern Plains Cummins - San Antonio yesterday and they couldn't locate it via the engine SN and an engine tech looking at it. Heading to Dodge today to attempt to locate. Thanks again for the assist.

 

Thanks for the assist. It's much appreciated.

08cumminsWV on cumminsforum spotted one on ebay from shotofgas (OEM CUMMINS SENSOR, PRESSURE, Exhaust Gas (EGR) 4928594). Purchased it today.
