Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector style, terminal count, and vehicle application before installation. The AU0156 uses a rectangular female connector with blade terminals and does not include a wiring harness or mounting hardware. For best results, inspect the connector, wiring, and transmission case area for damage or contamination before installing the new sensor.

Confirm the exact position listed for your vehicle, since this sensor is cataloged for Output applications on most fitments and one N/A listing for 2007 Dodge Nitro.

NTK manufactures this sensor to meet or exceed OE specifications and validates it through thermal shock, vibration, and OBD testing. That OE-based testing approach supports consistent signal performance for supported Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram, and Mitsubishi applications, including Jeep Wrangler, Dodge Dakota, and Ram 1500 models.
