To clean your DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid) quality sensor safely and effectively, follow these steps:
Prepare the Cleaning Solution: Use a high-purity isopropyl alcohol (IPA) solution (90% or higher concentration) to avoid leaving residues. Alternatively, a mild detergent diluted in distilled water can be used for less sensitive applications.
Power Off and Disconnect: Ensure the sensor is powered off and disconnected from any power source or vehicle system to prevent electrical hazards.
Gently Clean the Sensor Surface: Dip a lint-free microfiber cloth or a soft-bristled brush into the cleaning solution. Gently wipe the sensor surface to remove any deposits or contaminants. Avoid using abrasive materials that could scratch the sensor.
Dry Thoroughly: After cleaning, use a clean, dry microfiber cloth to pat the sensor dry. Ensure no moisture remains before reconnecting the sensor.
Reconnect and Test: Once completely dry, reconnect the sensor to the power source and test its functionality to ensure it is working correctly.
