The CI Air Intake Temperature Sensor (XEMS252) is an essential diagnostic component designed for automotive enthusiasts and technicians looking to restore or maintain optimal engine performance in Hyundai, Kia, Daewoo, and Chevrolet vehicles. This sensor delivers precise thermal data to the engine control unit to regulate air-fuel ratios, ensuring efficient combustion and consistent power delivery. While this sensor is engineered for high reliability, users must verify their vehicle's specific OEM part number compatibility before purchase to ensure proper installation and electrical communication with the engine management system.

It is designed for various models from Hyundai, Kia, Daewoo, and Chevrolet. Always cross-reference your OEM number.
No, a standard 21mm wrench or deep-well socket is typically sufficient for installation.
Yes, an incorrect temperature signal can cause the engine to run too rich, which may increase tailpipe emissions.
While you can gently clean the external housing, it is recommended to replace the sensor if the internal element is contaminated or damaged.
No, this specific model features an M14 x 1.5 thread; ensure this matches your intake manifold port.
Clear the fault codes using an OBD-II scanner after installation to reset the ECU learning parameters.
Ensure the 2-pin connector is fully seated and clicked into place to prevent poor electrical contact.
To install, ensure the engine is completely cool to avoid thermal injury. Locate the existing intake temperature sensor on the air intake tract or manifold. Disconnect the 2-pin wiring harness, use a 21mm wrench to carefully unscrew the old sensor, and thread the new XEMS252 into place. Do not over-tighten, as the thread pitch of M14 x 1.5 is designed to seal without excessive force.
Compatibility Note: This part replaces various OEM references including 392302F000 and 96508200. Always check your vehicle owner's manual or scan tool data to verify that your specific engine trim requires this exact sensor. Keep the sensor tip clean from oil or debris during installation, as contaminants can cause inaccurate temperature readings.
