Spectra EM1104URH Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) Heater
Spectra EM1104URH DEF Heater Overview
The Spectra EM1104URH diesel exhaust fluid heater is built for diesel emissions systems that need reliable DEF temperature control and fluid level sensing. It is a direct-fit emission control component for select Volkswagen Touareg models and helps maintain normal vehicle operation in cold conditions.
Compatible With 2011-2016 Volkswagen Touareg applications, this DEF heater supports accurate tank monitoring and OE-style emissions system performance.
Key Features
- Precisely calibrated heater helps keep diesel exhaust fluid from freezing during normal operation
- Integrated temperature sensor supports stable DEF system performance
- Fluid level sensing helps prevent low-DEF conditions that can trigger warning lights
- Validated by Spectra Premium engineering staff to meet OE requirements
- Direct replacement for select Volkswagen Touareg diesel emissions applications
Detailed Description
Built for diesel exhaust fluid system service, the Spectra EM1104URH combines heating and sensing functions in one emission control component. It is engineered to help maintain DEF flow in cold weather while also providing accurate fluid level feedback to the vehicle’s emissions management system. This matters because low DEF levels can illuminate the check engine light and reduce operating speed on affected diesel vehicles. This part cross-references 5D9006L and 7P6198970 for the same application.
Fits 2011-2016 Volkswagen Touareg, N/A. The EM1104URH is a practical replacement choice when servicing DEF heater faults on Volkswagen Touareg diesel models.
What It Helps Address
- DEF freezing during cold-weather operation
- Incorrect or unstable DEF temperature readings
- Low-fluid warnings caused by a failing level sensor
- Check engine light concerns related to DEF system faults
- Reduced vehicle speed caused by depleted DEF conditions
Installation Notes and Tips
Confirm the part number and vehicle application before installation. Inspect the DEF tank, electrical connectors, and related wiring for corrosion or damage before replacing the heater assembly. Follow factory service procedures for emissions components and verify system operation after installation.
Quality Assurance
Spectra Premium validates these DEF heaters with in-house Canadian engineering review to help ensure OE requirement alignment for the intended application.
