Accelerator Pedal or Lever Position Sensor Circuit
Circuit Description
The accelerator pedal or lever position sensor is attached to the accelerator pedal or lever.
The accelerator pedal or lever position sensor sends a signal to the electronic control
module (ECM) when the accelerator pedal or lever is depressed and released. The
accelerator pedal or lever position circuit contains three wires: Accelerator Pedal or Lever
Position Supply, Accelerator Pedal or Lever Position Return, and Accelerator Pedal or
Lever Position Signal.
Component Location
The accelerator pedal or lever position sensor is mounted to the accelerator pedal or lever
assembly. Refer to the OEM manual.
Shop Talk
If troubleshooting an intermittent accelerator problem:
The accelerator pedal or lever position sensor signal voltage can be monitored with the
INSITE™ electronic service tool, while flexing the harness to locate the intermittent
connection. Intermittent connections will show up as abrupt changes in signal voltage

displayed by INSITE™ electronic service tool.
Possible causes of this fault include:
z Accelerator pedal or lever position signal shorted to engine ground or return wires in
the OEM harness or sensor.
z Failed accelerator pedal or lever position sensor.
z Open circuit in the accelerator signal, supply, or return wire in the harness or
connectors.
NOTE: The three wires in the accelerator position sensor circuit must be twisted together.
Cautions and Warnings
CAUTION
To reduce the possibility of damaging a new ECM, all other active fault
codes must be investigated prior to replacing the ECM.
CAUTION
To reduce the possibility of pin and harness damage, use the following
test leads when taking a measurement:
Part Number 3823995 - male Weather-Pack test lead
Part Number 3823996 - female Weather-Pack test lead
Part Number 3822758 - male Deutsch/AMP/Metri-Pack test lead.
