Detailed Description

The Delphi SS10178 crankshaft position sensor is used to monitor crankshaft position and send the signal needed for engine timing and fuel control. For 1994-1996 Dodge Dakota and 1994-1996 Dodge Ram 1500, Ram 2500, and Ram 3500 models, this sensor supports accurate engine operation when the original unit is worn, damaged, or producing inconsistent readings. This part cross-references Standard Ignition PC39 for the same application.

Delphi draws on OE experience from supplying major automakers, and that background is reflected in the fit, connector design, and application-focused construction of SS10178. If you are searching for a 1994-1996 Dodge Dakota crankshaft position sensor or a 1994-1996 Dodge Ram crankshaft position sensor, this part number is a direct reference to verify against your vehicle’s original connector and sensor style.

What It Helps Address

• Hard starting caused by an inaccurate crankshaft signal
• Intermittent stalling or engine cut-out
• Misfire or timing-related drivability concerns
• Check engine light conditions tied to crankshaft position sensor faults
• Rough idle or inconsistent engine operation

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm connector shape, terminal count, and harness style before installation. Delphi SS10178 uses an oval female connector with 3 male terminals and includes a wiring harness, so matching the original configuration is important for proper installation. Inspect the mounting area and surrounding wiring for damage before replacing the sensor, and follow the included instruction sheet during service.

Quality Assurance

Delphi builds this crankshaft position sensor with OE heritage and application knowledge developed through decades of supplying original equipment to major automakers. That experience is carried into the aftermarket part design for consistent fitment and signal performance on the listed Dodge applications.
