A worn or failing sensor can lead to hard starting, stalling or a check engine light. Those signs alone do not prove the sensor is the problem, since a worn connector in the wiring can trigger some of them too.
Fits
The sensor is a direct replacement for OE applications and matches OE form, fit and function, including the strength of the magnet. The vehicles covered include the 2016-2023 Mazda CX-9 4-cylinder 2.5L, which takes one, and the 2012-2018 Mazda 3 4-cylinder 2.0L, the 2014-2026 3 4-cylinder 2.5L and the 2021-2022 3 4-cylinder 2.0L.
