Component Inspection
■ Accelerator Pedal Rod Inspection
- Verify that the accelerator pedal operate freely without binding between full closed and wide open position by operating the accelerator pedal.
- Check for poor carpet fit under the accelerator controls pedal.
- Repair or replace as necessary and go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure. If OK, go to next step below.
■ Accelerator Pedal Voltage Inspection
- Connect APS connector.
- IG "ON".
- Check sensor data (Fig 1).
- Data Analysis
Condition GDS Sensor Data APS 1 APS 2 G Key "ON" & Engine "OFF" "Output voltages of APS 1 and APS 2 are in proportion to accelerating. APS 2 output voltage is half of APS 1 output voltage." Release a pedal fully 0.58~0.93V 0.29~0.47V Depress a pedal fully 3.85~4.35V 1.93~2.18V - Is data in accordance with "Data Analysis"?
YES
- Check for poor connection between PCM and component: backed out terminal, improper mating, broken locks or poor terminal to wire connection. Repair as necessary and go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.
NO
- Substitute with a known-good component and check for proper operation. If the problem is corrected, replace component and then go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.
