That information is critical for ignition timing and engine management on Mazda rotary and four-cylinder applications. Compatible vehicle coverage includes Fits 2004-2011 Mazda RX-8, N\/A with rotor housing location notes, Fits 1995 Mazda RX-7, N\/A, Fits 1993-1994 Mazda RX-7, N\/A with 2-pin connector notes, Fits 1999-2003 Mazda Protege, N\/A with 2-pin connector notes, and Fits 2002-2003 Mazda Protege5, N\/A with 2-pin connector notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis HELLA crankshaft position sensor is a practical replacement choice when servicing Mazda RX-8, RX-7, Protege, or Protege5 engine management systems. Part number 013122571 is also referenced by ACI 81052 and Dayco 87744 for the same application.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Issues This Part Can Address\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrankshaft speed or position signal loss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHard starting or extended crank time related to timing input faults\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntermittent engine stalling from unstable sensor output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCheck engine light conditions tied to crankshaft position sensor faults\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRough running caused by incorrect engine timing data\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eVerify the connector style, pole count, and engine application before installation. This sensor uses a 2-pin configuration and inductive sensing, so matching the original connector and mounting location is important for proper operation. On Mazda RX-8 applications, confirm the rotor housing location noted in the fitment data. Always inspect the harness, connector terminals, and surrounding engine area for damage or contamination before replacing the sensor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eHELLA tests this sensor for durability under temperature variation, vibration, and exposure to engine fluids. The design also focuses on reducing signal drift for stable engine control input across the listed Mazda applications.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hella","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52415122702517,"sku":"BFDP-013122571","price":45.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0628\/1442\/1173\/files\/HL_013122571_Fro.jpg?v=1777801638","url":"https:\/\/www.partcatalog.com\/products\/hella-013122571-engine-crankshaft-position-sensor","provider":"PartCatalog","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
