Detailed Description

Delphi SS10809 is an engine crankshaft position sensor engineered for direct replacement on select Cadillac CTS and Cadillac Catera vehicles. As a critical input sensor, it reports crankshaft position and speed data to the engine control system so ignition timing and fuel delivery can be managed correctly. Delphi builds OE heritage and supplier knowledge into its aftermarket parts, giving this sensor a specification-driven fit for the listed applications.

This part cross-references Standard Ignition PC294 for the same application. It also cross-references Walker Products 235-1178 for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Crankshaft signal loss or intermittent sensor output
• Hard starting or extended crank time
• Engine stalling or sudden shutdown
• Misfire or timing-related drivability concerns
• Check engine light conditions tied to crankshaft position sensor faults

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector shape, terminal count, and harness routing before installation. The Delphi SS10809 uses a female oval connector with three male terminals and includes a wiring harness, so confirm the vehicle-side connection matches the original layout on your Cadillac CTS or Cadillac Catera. Clear diagnostic trouble codes after installation and inspect the sensor mounting area for debris, oil contamination, or damaged wiring that could affect signal quality.

Quality Assurance

Delphi draws on OE experience and supplier knowledge developed over many years of original-equipment production. That background is reflected in the design and application coverage of this crankshaft position sensor for 2003-2004 Cadillac CTS and 1997-2001 Cadillac Catera models.
