NOx Sensor 5WK96614J

BG 201007 (OE 5WK96614J): function on the vehicle

NOx Sensor 5WK96614J is supplied by BEST GROWTH under part number 201007, cross-referenced to OE 5WK96614J, as a direct-fit aftermarket nox sensors. In service it acts as the closed-loop feedback element of the SCR circuit: it tells the controller how much NOx is still leaving the catalyst, so dosing is trimmed up or down instead of running to a fixed map.

BG 201007 is built to the position defined by its OE application on a 24V electrical system on the platform from Cummins. Position, calibration and connector layout are part of the specification, so a part that physically fits is not automatically the correct part.

Cable length and connector keying are part of the specification. A cell with correct electrical output but the wrong lead length will not route to the OE bracket.

Fitment for Cummins and OE cross reference

BG 201007 replaces 1 OE reference: 5WK96614J. Always confirm the number printed on the removed part, including any supersession issued by the vehicle manufacturer.

Recorded vehicle coverage for 201007 includes Cummins, typically on ISX / QSX Engines (24V). 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 5WK96614J

These complaints bring a vehicle in with the Cummins nox sensors under suspicion. None of them prove BG 201007 has failed on its own, which is why the checks below matter before a replacement is ordered.

• no communication with the sensor control module after a cold start
• sensor value frozen at a fixed number once the exhaust warms up
• dosing shut-down after a few minutes of steady-state running
• upstream and downstream values reading almost identically under load
• intermittent fault that clears after the engine cools and returns when hot

Checks before fitting BG 201007

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

• 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.
• Compare upstream and downstream NOx readings warmed and under load — idle values prove nothing.
• Confirm supply voltage, ground quality and bus termination before condemning the sensor module.
• Inspect the harness for heat damage and the connector for moisture and green corrosion.

Quality, packaging and ordering 201007

BG 201007 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.

Send OE 5WK96614J or the number printed on your part, the engine code and the vehicle identification number with your enquiry, and our technical team will confirm the correct reference, current stock position and lead time before you commit to an order.

Frequently asked questions

Does BG 201007 replace OE 5WK96614J?

Yes. BG 201007 is listed against 5WK96614J. Confirm the number printed on the removed part and any manufacturer supersession before ordering.

Which vehicles does BG 201007 fit?

Recorded coverage includes Cummins. 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 201007.
