Standard Ignition PC997 Engine Crankshaft Position Sensor

Engine Crankshaft Position Sensor for Jeep and Ram

Standard Ignition PC997 is an engine crankshaft position sensor built for accurate crankshaft timing signal input on select Jeep Wrangler, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Ram 1500, and Ram 1500 Classic applications. It uses integrated analog-to-digital conversion and digital signal processing to improve signal accuracy and stable operation.

Key Features

• Engine crankshaft position sensor, sensor only
• Female rectangular plug-in connector with 3 male blade terminals
• Advanced circuitry helps protect against stray electromagnetic fields and power spikes
• Custom magnetic circuit programming supports calibration and timing accuracy
• Endurance, environmental, and end-of-line testing for timing, pulse width, and signal amplitude
• No mounting bracket and no wire lead included

Detailed Description

PC997 is engineered to deliver a clean crankshaft position signal for engine management systems that rely on precise timing input. Standard Ignition calibrates the sensor during manufacturing and verifies performance against target wheel output to help maintain consistent signal quality. This makes it a direct-fit choice for Jeep Wrangler and Jeep Grand Cherokee as well as Ram 1500 and Ram 1500 Classic models listed below.

This part cross-references Delphi SS12016 for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Crank no-start conditions caused by a failed crankshaft position sensor
• Intermittent stalling or rough running from unstable engine speed input
• Check engine lights related to crankshaft position signal faults
• Hard starting after heat soak or during extended cranking
• Erratic ignition timing or misfire symptoms tied to sensor signal loss

Installation Notes and Tips

• Fits 2020-2023 Jeep Wrangler, N/A
• Fits 2014-2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee, N/A
• Fits 2014-2018 Ram 1500, N/A
• Fits 2019 Ram 1500 Classic, N/A
• Fits 2020-2023 Ram 1500, N/A
• Inspect the connector, terminals, and target wheel condition before installation
• Sensor-only design means existing mounting provisions and harness routing should be verified on the vehicle

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition subjects this crankshaft position sensor to environmental, endurance, and end-of-line testing for timing, pulse width, and signal amplitude to support consistent output and reliable operation.
