NTK TP0020 Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor

NTK MAP Sensor Overview

The NTK Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor, part number TP0020, is a direct-fit technical sensor for select Ram and Dodge heavy-duty applications. It uses a rectangular female connector with a 4-blade terminal layout and a single port for straightforward electrical and vacuum interface.

Built under NTK’s sensor-focused product line, TP0020 reflects OE-based engineering and coverage for import and domestic vehicles. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 68002434AA, 68282012AA) for the same application.

Key Features

• Manifold absolute pressure sensor for engine load and air pressure monitoring
• Rectangular connector with female terminals for a defined electrical connection
• 4-terminal blade design with one port
• NTK sensor line backed by OE application technology
• Part number TP0020 for application matching and catalog lookup

Detailed Description

TP0020 is an NTK manifold absolute pressure sensor engineered for 2010 Dodge Ram 3500, 2010 Dodge Ram 4500, 2010 Dodge Ram 5500, 2011 Ram 4500, and 2011 Ram 5500. In these Ram and Dodge Ram applications, the sensor supports the engine management system by reporting manifold pressure data used for fuel and load calculations. The connector and terminal configuration help ensure the replacement matches the original electrical interface.

NTK positions this sensor line around OE experience and validation. The brand states its technical sensors are tested under thermal shock, vibration, and OBD verification conditions, and manufactured to meet or exceed OE specifications. TP0020 is a fitment-specific replacement for buyers searching for a Ram 4500 MAP sensor, Dodge Ram 3500 MAP sensor, or Ram 5500 manifold absolute pressure sensor.

What It Helps Address

• Incorrect manifold pressure readings
• Engine performance issues tied to sensor signal loss
• Check engine light conditions related to MAP sensor faults
• Driveability problems caused by inaccurate air pressure data
• Electrical connection mismatch during sensor replacement

Installation Notes and Quality

Verify connector shape, terminal count, and port configuration against the original sensor before installation. Confirm fitment by year, make, and model, especially on Ram and Dodge Ram heavy-duty trucks. TP0020 is part of NTK’s sensor-focused lineup, and the manufacturer states these sensors are built to meet or exceed OE specifications after extensive validation testing.
