NTK Throttle Position Sensor P/N:TH0056
NTK TH0238 throttle position sensor for the 1998-2004 Dodge Ram 2500 6-cylinder 5.9L and other vehicles reports the throttle plate angle to the ECM. The ECM uses that angle to track engine air intake under all engine load conditions.
Stalling, hesitation or a rough idle can mean this sensor is worn, though the wiring connector or the ECM can be behind the same signs, so find the cause before replacing it. This listing is one sensor, and each truck takes one.
It fits the 1998-2004 Dodge Ram 2500 6-cylinder 5.9L and is also a throttle position sensor for the 1998-2004 Dodge Ram 3500 6-cylinder 5.9L. It is made to operational performance standards that meet or exceed OE fit, form and function.
