Review on πŸš€ Enhanced Exhaust Sensor by Ford - Exceptional Performance by Brandon Ball

Revainrating 5 out of 5

This part is crucial to keep your truck running.

This is a genuine Ford part that fits my 2012 F250 diesel truck perfectly. The company received it in a very short time. I have a 2012 Ford F250 diesel truck with 119,000 miles on it. This little sensor turned off my perfectly working truck and then the second one did it again (#1 and #4). . Apparently this is a problem with Ford diesel trucks. This sensor fails and reports a ridiculously high temperature. The computer will then give you about 2 minutes to stop and when you are under 8 km/h the truck will stop. You cannot start the charger again until the sensor has cooled down. The message center on the dashboard issues an ominous "Stop safely now" warning. The truck does not accelerate but only gradually decelerates. I hope you are somewhere where you can stop and get off the road safely. I now have 2 spare sensors in the truck, a pack of high temp EP grease and this 13mm wrench (https://smile.amazon.com). /gp/product/B00EFZQUG4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1). I'm monitoring the temperature of the first two pyrotechnics (there are 4 of them) with my Bully Dog Gauge Tuner so I can better understand which ones need replacing if it's working. again. Changing the sensor only takes about 10 minutes and can be done on the side of the road (I know this from experience). If you have a Ford diesel truck, you should always keep the above spares kit in your truck. .Without a doubt, this is the dumbest technical "feature" in my truck. Stop a properly working truck and leave it at the side of the road for an hour due to a sensor malfunction. Ford must program the computer to reject unreasonably high temperatures and warn which one is defective. (I think I'll make this suggestion to Ford.) :-)

Pros
  • Convenient item
Cons
  • Mostly good but...
