Description These Pressure Sensor Harnesses are a great cost saving addon to our bypass kits that will take care of problems caused a damaged pressure sensor. Comes in custom lengths depending on your vehicle’s Air Switching valve configuration, side by side or one on the top of each side of the engine. On the 2007 and newer vehicles that have two air switching valves, it is fairly common for one of the air injection pressure sensors which are built into the air switching valves to become damaged from exposure to hot exhaust gasses. In these vehicles the air injection pressure sensors are much closer to the hot exhaust gases. Damage to one of these sensors can happen when the vehicle is operated with an air switching valve this is stuck open or leaking which lets the hot exhaust to reach the pressure sensors. It is more common for this sort of damage to cause the pressure sensor to read incorrectly without being damaged bad enough to cause a Pressure Sensor Circuit Code. This can cause valve stuck open codes even after installing the bypass kit and block off plates. It is also the most common cause of a P016B code which compares the two air injection system pressure sensors and the evap pressure sensor to determine barometric pressure. Typically to fix a damaged pressure sensor you would have to replace one of the expensive air switching valve even after installing the bypass kit. This is still much less expensive than replacing the whole system but now you can just add a Pressure Sensor Harness to our bypass kit! A bypass kit must be installed to use this harness and all the wiring for the pressure sensors must be intact. If you are getting a pressure sensor circuit code it is important to verify the wiring to the ECM is good first. Sometimes rodents like to chew on wires which the bypass kit nor this Pressure Sensor Harness can fix. Typical Pressure Sensor Codes the Harness can take care of when added to a bypass kit. The valve stuck open codes which can also be the result of a damaged air pressure sensor are not listed here.

Warranty policy

All products are backed by unlimited mileage and one (1) Year, Limited Warranty. Please read terms and conditions for full description.

Before fitting the new part, you MUST find the reason why turbocharger FAILED and CORRECT it. Fitting a new turbo will only result the same failure. Less than 10% of turbocharger failures, are due to the turbo itself, in most cases failures are caused by outside influence. Most common causes of consequential failure (NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY) are listed below. All new Kott Turbo Works products are backed by a one (1) Year Limited Warranty. The one (1) Year Limited Warranty covers all manufacturer defects. Warranty does not cover labor recovery, accommodation, or any other costs. Turbochargers must be returned for a detailed warranty inspection. Any modification to the product voids the one (1) Year Limited Warranty. The one (1) Year Limited Warranty does not cover :

  • Failure to provide installation documents from repair facility. (Self/parking lot installs)
  • Failure to perform and document scheduled maintenance on time.
  • Seaping/leaking oil out of compression outlet, caused by excesive BLOW BY or clogged crankcase FILTER.
  • Failures due to Improper installation or maintenance, restricted oil feed pipe, damaged oil pump, low oil level, metal particles or carbon present, faulty DPF filters and/or EGR valves, contaminated lubricant, oil starvation.
  • Using liquid gasket or sealing compounds
  • White deposit present on exhaust parts due to excessive engine oil burn.
  • Over speeding, defective intercooler and or compression piping, stuck VGT, Remap
  • Foreign object and physical damage, defective or dirty air filter and supply pipes.

Due to the intricacies involved in warranty process and the industry standard protocol regarding the inspection of parts and turnaround time, we will not offer free replacements prior to full inspection and analysis. To minimize potential downtime for our customers, we strongly recommend the purchase of replacement parts as a proactive measure. We kindly request your understanding in this matter.

Core return

Cores must be returned in undamaged shipping conditions, if damage occurs during shipping, due to poor packaging or other reasons we reserve the right to prorate or forfeit core refund at our discretion.

Cores must be returned within 60 days for full core refund and it has to meet all criteria, after that core refund will be at KTW discretion. Upon receiving your good core, we will issue a refund within a 1 week period. All cores are subject to inspection upon arrival. Any returned item with physical damage will result in denial of return credit or refund. The Following are examples of Turbos that will NOT be refunded:

  • Turbochargers: Bent or broken anything except turbine shaft. Bent, broken or damaged housing.
  • Core has to be sent with copy of purchase order, in order to know for which turbo we have to issue the refund, KTW won’t know who returned it, without proper documentation.
  • Core must be like-for-like.

We provide free return shipping using a FREE FedEx return label to return the core back to us, from most of the locations in the US (excluding Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico).

Shipping and returns

We use FedEx ground for shipping, contact us for expedited service, or other special arrangements.

Returns are only allowed for 14 days from post marked day, after that only store credit can be allowed at our discretion, not guaranteed.

Installation tips

Most common misdiagnosis.

Oil leaks can be caused by a variety of factors, the main factor being incorrect pressure within the compressor and turbine housings, which is usually caused by:

  • Blockages to the air intake filter and/or hoses.
  • Excessive crank case pressure (blow-by from worn piston rings/bores)
  • Blockages in the exhaust system
  • Repeated hot engine shutdowns leading to carbon deposits (coke) in the centre housing
  • Dirty crankcase filter
  • Use of silicon sealant / incorrect gasket, twisted, bent or trapped oil return pipe

Most common turbocharger failure causes on semi trucks:

  • Foreign object damage – Broken off engine components, e.g. valves (D13), fragments of damaged pistons or injector tips, EGR block off plates.
  • Oil contamination – High carbon build up present in the engine can quickly contaminate new oil, contamination of new oil while servicing.
  • Degrading oil – excessive temperatures or extended service intervals.
  • Internal engine leaks – fuel or coolant mixing with oil supply.
  • Turbocharger overspeeding – Engine modifications including ‘chipping’ or ‘over-fuelling, bad program installed if EGR/DPF delete was performed, worn injectors. Tear in the air hose or the hose becoming completely detached. Restrictions in the air intake filter or pipe work. Air leaks between compressor and engine.
  • Lack of lubrication – 
    1. Engine left idle for long periods, especially during cold weather
    2. Oil feed pipes containing bends or kinks
    3. Lack of maintenance, oil change intervals should be shortened as engine gets old.
    4. Insufficient oil in the sump
    5. Incorrect oil inlet gasket used leading to restriction in oil supply
    6. Build-up (coking) / carbon deposits in the oil feed pipe
    7. Applying silicone to the oil inlet gasket causing blockages
    8. Sludge or coke build up in bearing housing from hot shutdowns
    9. Failure to prime the turbo with oil before initial run
