Mopar 56027870 Crankshaft Position Sensor

Fit perfectly

I had the sensor go haywire in my 2001 Dodge Ram 1500. The DTC told us, my son and I it was the cam position or the crank position sensor. We performed the test as laid out in a repair manual and found it to be the crankshaft sensor. We bought a aftermarket Borg Warner sensor for it, install and the truck ran for about 6-7 miles and shut down on the road. We installed the old one which with it,it ran rough but got us back to the house. We went to the Amazon website and found the factory Mopar sensor, ordered it, it was delivered in 3 days, installed it drove truck 20-25 miles it ran great with no problems and still is. The aftermarket sensor when reading with ammeter on ohms setting reads through 5 volt supply wire and ground wire. The Mopar factory sensor reads through the computer signal wire and the ground wire, not the 5 volt supply wire and the ground wire. Amazon came to the rescue with the factory sensor with a $66 price when the dealerships get around $100. Awesome job Amazon, Thanks.

This is the cure for the random misfires on bank 1 135 over and over it is the only thing that will solve the problem when nothing else is broken and you keep getting the misfires on the 135 or any of those One Bank only misfire random multiple misfires I will do this crap for three months I went through five different crank sensors including Adelphi and the Mopar is the only one that you ordered the problem you have to spend the money and you have to buy Mopar this part the crank sensor cannot be substituted by any other manufacturer they will not work it is hit and miss if you get lucky with one by chance but I did I finally bought this one

Destroyed the original sensor in my 97 Dodge Dakota during some transmission work and had to replace it with an afterarket part. Worked fine for a day, then started causing serious misfire and stalling problems along with a Missing Cam/Crankshaft sensor code. Read over the reviews here and ponied up the money for the more expensive part and it does the trick! This is probably the only OE part you will have to purchase, the sensor spec is very strict and aftermarket won't cut it. The difference in part quality is very apparent. So if you need this for either a Dakota or Durango, get it. The aftermarket parts don't work.

If you have a 3.9L, 5.2L, or 5.9L with the intermittent sputtering and bucking then more than likely your Crankshaft Position Sensor is going bad. First off, this isn't a easy plug-n-play job. This sensor is tucked away behind the passenger side valve cover above the transmission bell housing. The pigtail goes over the trans and the wiring harness is above drivers side valve cover. This job took me nearly 2 hours due to its odd and tight location. I strongly recommend staying away from all aftermarket sensors for your Mopar, as they don't meet the voltage parameters that Chrysler has set.
