Product Overview
The DEF header carries tank-level and related sensor connections used by the aftertreatment system. Sensor failures can trigger DEF warnings or derate messages even when the tank still contains fluid.
Freightliner used several header generations and tank configurations. Confirm tank capacity, flange, bolt count, electrical connection and any revised sensor design before installation.
