Important: Electrical and electronic components should be fitted by a qualified auto-electrician after correct diagnosis. Confirm the fault is the sensor and not the wiring, connector, or a related circuit before replacing. Check the connector and harness condition and ensure the sensor air gap and mounting are correct. Failures caused by misdiagnosis, wiring or connector faults, incorrect fitment, or a related circuit problem are not manufacturing defects and are not covered under warranty.
Returns: Electrical parts are non-returnable once fitted or once the sealed packaging has been opened, unless an incorrect part was supplied and the item remains sealed, unused and in original condition.
