Detailed Description

This Delphi crankshaft position sensor monitors crankshaft position data used by the engine management system for timing and fuel control. The SS12463 uses a rectangular connector, three terminals, and two mounting holes for a direct-fit style replacement in the applications shown. Delphi tests and calibrates its sensors to OE standards to help maintain accurate readings and reduce repeat repairs. This part cross-references Standard Ignition PC169 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Hard starting caused by an unreliable crankshaft signal.
• Intermittent stalling from inconsistent engine position data.
• Misfire or timing-related drivability concerns.
• Check engine light conditions tied to crankshaft sensor faults.
• Crank signal loss that affects engine control operation.

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector shape, terminal count, and mounting-hole layout before installation. Use the included instruction sheet during replacement and confirm the harness routing matches the original sensor location. For fitment, this part fits 1997-1998 Jeep Wrangler, N/A; fits 1999 Jeep Cherokee, N/A; fits 2001-2004 Jeep Wrangler, N/A; and fits 1998-2002 Dodge Dakota, N/A.
