NOx Sensor 2429861 SNS0344F

BG 990515 (OE 2429861 SNS0344F): function on the vehicle

NOx Sensor 2429861 SNS0344F is supplied by BEST GROWTH under part number 990515, cross-referenced to OE 2429861 SNS0344F, as a direct-fit aftermarket nox sensors. In service it supplies the emissions-monitoring value the OBD system uses to decide whether the SCR stage is still working within its legal window. A drifting cell triggers inducement long before the catalyst itself is worn out.

BG 990515 is built to the position defined by its OE application on a 24V electrical system in truck service on the platform from DAF. Position, calibration and connector layout are part of the specification, so a part that physically fits is not automatically the correct part.

Fitting position matters as much as the part number: upstream and downstream references often share a housing but carry different calibration data and cable lengths.

Fitment for DAF and OE cross reference

BG 990515 replaces 1 OE reference: 2429861 SNS0344F. Always confirm the number printed on the removed part, including any supersession issued by the vehicle manufacturer.

Recorded vehicle coverage for 990515 includes DAF, typically on CF / XF Euro 6. Coverage lists are a starting point for identification, not a substitute for checking the OE number on the vehicle.

Quote the number printed on your part with the engine code when you enquire; a single-reference part is the most common source of ordering errors when a platform received a mid-life update.

Symptoms that lead to replacing 2429861 SNS0344F

These complaints bring a vehicle in with the DAF nox sensors under suspicion. None of them prove BG 990515 has failed on its own, which is why the checks below matter before a replacement is ordered.

• SCR efficiency below threshold or NOx-signal-implausible fault codes
• DEF over-consumption with no visible leak
• torque derate or speed inducement with a full, in-spec DEF tank
• no communication with the sensor control module after a cold start
• sensor value frozen at a fixed number once the exhaust warms up

Checks before fitting BG 990515

Aftertreatment faults are usually system faults. Working through these checks prevents a repeat failure after the new nox sensors is fitted.

• Check for exhaust leaks ahead of the sensor boss; a diluted sample reads low NOx.
• Read the sensor's own dew-point release time — a cell that never heats is a supply or module fault.
• Verify DEF concentration with a refractometer before blaming the measuring cell.
• Check for a pending software or parameter update for the sensor control module on that platform.
• After fitting, run the manufacturer's adaptation or relearn so stored efficiency counters reset.

Quality, packaging and ordering 990515

BG 990515 is manufactured and tested to aftermarket replacement standards, with electrical, leakage and functional testing carried out before packing on the 24V specification. Bulk and retail packaging, private-label cartons and customer-specific labelling are available for distributors and workshop groups.

Frequently asked questions

Does BG 990515 replace OE 2429861 SNS0344F?

Yes. BG 990515 is listed against 2429861 SNS0344F. Confirm the number printed on the removed part and any manufacturer supersession before ordering.

Which vehicles does BG 990515 fit?

Recorded coverage includes DAF. It is supplied as a direct-fit aftermarket nox sensors on 24V systems. Adaptation, reset or relearn procedures required by the vehicle manufacturer still apply after installation.

Does this fault code always mean the nox sensors has failed?

No. Exhaust leaks, wiring and connector damage, reductant quality, dosing performance and upstream engine faults can all produce the same codes. Validate those inputs before replacing BG 990515.
