Spectra S10165 Crankshaft Position Sensor

The Spectra S10165 engine crankshaft position sensor is a direct-fit ignition sensor for select Honda Passport models. It monitors crankshaft position and engine speed data used by the ignition system to maintain proper timing and RPM signal input.

Key Features

• Engine crankshaft position sensor for ignition timing and RPM signal monitoring
• Direct-fit replacement for select 1996-1997 Honda Passport applications
• Supports distributor and ignition timing control through crankshaft signal input
• OE-style replacement for vehicles using the listed interchange references
• Part number S10165 for catalog and service lookup

Detailed Description

Use the Spectra S10165 when servicing a crankshaft position sensor on 1996-1997 Honda Passport models. This sensor provides the engine control system with crankshaft position and relative engine speed information, helping the ignition system maintain accurate timing without manual distributor adjustment. It is a practical replacement for drivability and ignition signal concerns on Honda Passport applications that call for this part number.

This part cross-references Standard Ignition PC198 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Intermittent no-start conditions related to crankshaft signal loss
• Rough running caused by incorrect ignition timing input
• Erratic engine RPM readings from a failing sensor
• Stalling or hesitation tied to weak crankshaft position data
• Check engine light concerns associated with crankshaft sensor faults

Installation Notes

Verify the connector style, mounting location, and engine application before installation. On Honda Passport vehicles, confirm the original sensor reference against the vehicle’s service information and compare the old unit to the replacement part number S10165. Clear diagnostic trouble codes after installation and confirm stable RPM and timing signal operation.

Quality Assurance

Spectra manufactures ignition and sensor components for service replacement use. The S10165 is listed for 1996-1997 Honda Passport fitment and is supported by the interchange references shown for catalog verification.
