SKP SK907772 Engine Crankshaft Position Sensor

Engine Crankshaft Position Sensor Overview

The SKP SK907772 engine crankshaft position sensor is a direct-fit replacement for a wide range of GM vehicles. It is used in applications where the sensor mounts behind the balancer, including Buick Rendezvous, Chevrolet Venture, and Pontiac Grand Am fitments.

Key Features

• Direct-fit crankshaft position sensor for ignition system service.
• Fits applications with a behind-balancer mounting location.
• Supports accurate crankshaft signal input for engine management.
• Compatible with multiple Buick, Chevrolet, Oldsmobile, and Pontiac models.
• SKP SK907772 cross-references common OE and aftermarket part numbers for the same application.

Detailed Description

SKP SK907772 is an engine crankshaft position sensor built for vehicles that use a behind-balancer sensor location. This part is listed for 1993-2005 GM passenger cars and minivans, including Chevrolet Malibu, Pontiac Montana, and Oldsmobile Alero applications. When the crankshaft signal becomes inconsistent, the engine control system can lose the timing information it needs for proper operation. Replacing the sensor with the correct SKP SK907772 application helps restore the signal path used by the ignition and fuel management systems.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Issues This Part May Address

• Intermittent no-start or hard-start conditions related to crankshaft signal loss.
• Stalling caused by an unstable engine speed signal.
• Misfire or timing-related drivability concerns.
• Check engine light conditions tied to crankshaft position sensor faults.
• Rough running when the engine control module cannot read crankshaft position correctly.

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the mounting location and engine application before installation, since this sensor is listed for behind-balancer configurations only. Confirm connector style and routing against the original part on the vehicle. On fitments where access is limited, inspect the balancer area and surrounding components before beginning service.

Quality Assurance

SKP SK907772 is cataloged as a direct-fit replacement part for the listed applications. Use the vehicle fitment details to confirm compatibility before ordering.
