Replacing a faulty CMP sensor with a genuine Mopar OEM component helps restore proper engine timing communication and overall drivability.
Designed specifically for 1998.5-2002 Dodge Ram Cummins applications, this direct-fit OEM replacement sensor provides factory-quality electrical connections, correct resistance values, and reliable long-term operation. Unlike lower-quality aftermarket sensors, genuine Mopar engine management components are built to meet strict Cummins and Chrysler performance standards.
This sensor replaces several older OEM and Cummins reference numbers while maintaining complete compatibility with 24V ISB Cummins-equipped Ram trucks.
