Part numbers for Suzuki Sidekick: years and engines
The years come from the manufacturer's list and do not mean one continuous compatibility range.
How to tell this is the part you need
It makes sense to check this unit when the engine cranks but will not start because the spark is gone; when a warm engine stalls and restarts once it cools; with unstable idle, jerking or flat spots under acceleration. These are possible signs, not proof: the coil, the wiring and the fuel system produce the same symptoms, so sourcing starts with checking the marking.
This is not a crankshaft position sensor (CKP) — that one mounts on the engine block near the pulley. This is a standalone ignition module with its own housing and connector.
What to check before ordering
- The marking stamped on the removed part: a J, RSB or OE number.
- The number on the complete distributor, if it is legible.
- The connector pin count and the mounting shape.
- The engine, model year and body code of the car.
