Product Description

The OMIX 17220.13 is a direct-fit OE-replacement crankshaft position sensor designed for 1997-2004 Jeep Wrangler TJ, 2004 Wrangler Unlimited LJ, and 1997-2000 Cherokee XJ applications. The sensor continuously monitors the rotational speed and position of the crankshaft, sending precise signals to the ECM to control ignition timing and fuel injection. A failing sensor commonly triggers Check Engine codes, rough idling, misfires, or no-start conditions - all symptoms this replacement is engineered to resolve.

Fitment varies by engine and transmission: for 2.5L I4 applications, this sensor fits both automatic and manual transmissions across all supported years; for the 4.0L I6, it is compatible with manual transmissions only. Owners with a 4.0L automatic should reference an alternate part number. The assembly includes the sensor, bracket, and plug for a straightforward installation rated at intermediate skill level with an estimated 1-2 hour completion time.
