Detailed Description

The Motorad 1KR102 is an engine crankshaft position sensor engineered for direct-fit service on select Dodge Dakota, Dodge Durango, Dodge Ram 1500, Dodge Ram 2500, Dodge Ram 3500, Dodge Ram van applications, Dodge B-series vans, and Jeep Grand Cherokee models.

The compact black sensor body measures 0.74 inches in diameter and mounts with two holes. Motorad also backs this engine management product with a limited lifetime warranty.

Common Problems This Sensor Can Address
