Before installation, inspect the air filter, intake tract, connectors, and wiring for dirt, debris, looseness, cracks, or moisture intrusion. Over-voltage, shorted wiring, cracked circuit boards, and air intake obstructions are common causes of sensor failure, so correcting those issues helps protect the replacement unit.

Quality Assurance

Each sensor is tested with automated computer equipment, and Cardone validates fit and performance through on-car routines. The remanufacturing process also reduces energy and raw material use compared with producing a new part.
