What It Helps Address

• Crankshaft signal loss or intermittent signal output
• Hard starting or no-start conditions related to engine position sensing
• Rough idle, stalling, or hesitation tied to timing input errors
• Check engine light concerns associated with crankshaft sensor faults
• Unstable ignition timing and inconsistent engine operation

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector style, terminal count, and mounting point before installation. The sensor uses a rectangular female connector with 3 male blade terminals and a single mounting hole, so matching the OE configuration is important for proper fit. Inspect the harness connector and surrounding wiring for corrosion, heat damage, or broken terminals before replacing the sensor.

For best results, clear diagnostic trouble codes after installation and confirm that the engine starts and idles normally. This part number, 1KR126, is commonly selected when replacing a failed crankshaft position sensor on Chrysler Neon, Dodge Caravan, and related applications.
