Detailed Description

Delphi TS10538 is an engine sensor designed to report air charge temperature to the vehicle’s control system, helping maintain proper fuel and boost-related calibration. Built with OE heritage and application knowledge, this sensor uses a square male connector, pin terminals, and push-on mounting for a straightforward replacement on supported Ford applications. This part cross-references Standard Ignition AX254 for the same application. If you are replacing a Ford F-150, Ford F-250 Super Duty, or Ford F-350 Super Duty air charge temperature sensor, TS10538 provides a direct-fit option identified by part number TS10538.

What It Helps Solve

• Faulty intake air temperature readings
• Check engine lights related to sensor performance
• Driveability issues caused by incorrect air charge data
• Hard starting or rough running tied to inaccurate engine sensor input
• Reduced engine control accuracy in turbocharged Ford truck applications

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector shape, terminal count, and mounting style before installation. Confirm the vehicle application against the fitment list for your Ford F-150, Ford F-250 Super Duty, or Ford F-350 Super Duty. Inspect the harness connector for corrosion, bent pins, or damaged locking features before connecting the new sensor. Use the included instruction sheet during installation and clear any stored diagnostic trouble codes after replacement.
