How to Test accelerator Position Sensor

[@robertmedina6875]

You guys are really smart I got to hand it to you. You probably sell tons of these tools to the DIY guy. Anyone who's been through technicial school knows how to test the stuff without these tools! Great videos!

What if you replace it and the fault still persists? The accelerator not responding when depressed the pedal

[@ADPTraining]

You need the Electrothrottle and blue voltage. www.autodiagnosticsandpublishing.com/etc_electrothrottle_electronic_throttle_tester.html

[@eurowerx4267]

Well then you know what’s not the problem!!😂😂😂

[@shockawha9]

Don’t forget to calibrate pedal. Tons of vids about pedal sensor n not one about calibration!

[@stephen8385]

Great explanation.. im trying to fit a blipper, it works by giving slight throttle voltage when i downshift.. device only have plus and ground, would it works if connect it to aps1? Will it trigger fail safe? Will aps2 follow the slight voltage increase from tps1 without actually touching the pedal?

[@ADPTraining]

Fail safe yes.

[@thecarwizz1906]

Great Information. Which wire will I need to disable in the Acc Pedal to prevent the car from accelerating. This is for a security system to prevent them from driving of. Thanks

[@ADPTraining]

Good question. Answer is the two signal wires.

[@cassiefountain1394]

Do you have to replace the whole pedal or just the sensor

[@diannabendure7333]

Supposibly the whole foot pedal is what I was told because it comes as one . Who knows with the Ford Focus . Love the car just don't like the mechanical side of the Ford Focus . Wish sometimes I could just put a simple engine in it and let it run forever . The car is a trip . 3 rd Ford I've ever owned. Very well could be the last . Wish Ford could make me believe they make good vehicles . And I know they do . But the mechanical side of this Focus is a freaking trip . Should just cut out the floor board and make it my Flintstone car . LOL. Drives great when it wants to and goes into LIMP Mode way too quick over the craziest things that can give off so many codes . Nobody knows !! Heck the car of mine is like brand new ,no scratches, no dents , everything including the engine parts look brand new but I guess the 2014 Ford Focus is just a shell and thats it . Please Ford make me a believer before I go straight up Coo- Coo !! LOL . Too late !!😂

[@ADPTraining]

Depends on the design. Usually it all comes together.

[@ADPTraining]

I hear you.

[@shockawha9]

And still no one is mentioning calibration!!!

[@CashApp-HelpMeStayAlive]

Do u have to PROGRAM OR CALIBRATE it. after the install ?

[@BellozeCountry]

I am wondering if this issue can cause a 2500hd silverado to lose power and acceleration?

[@victorapaliso9439]

Thank you for your precious informative vlog.

[@ADPTraining]

Thanks

[@suatkaleli5075]

hi,is it possible to apply dc 5 volts and check the outputs by oscilloscope to test the accelerator position sensor-thanks

[@ADPTraining]

Yes

[@Roshane-r8k]

Can this stop the car from starting if it's faulty?

[@ADPTraining]

If stuck in wide throttle maybe. ECM will go into fuel cut off.

[@panzerichi3837]

If in limp mode ,and app is replaced will it come out of mode or do you have to erase factoring codes?

[@ADPTraining]

Yes, and reset parameters.

[@dodgemagumhemikiller4326]

I've got a 2006 magnum with a 3.5 in it no codes on the dash but it surges at a constant speed or light throttle clears up when I give it more gas change the the electronic throttle body still doing it but it hooked up my scan tool did a live data with the ignition on car not running watched the "acc pedal e" chart slowly pressing the pedal down the percentage would increase but would go to 0 then back up and would hit zero a few more times till maxed out then went back to normal . Not throwing any codes either would it be the electric accelerator pedal?

[@ADPTraining]

Ok, I see your typical issue. This is exactly why I created the ELECTROTHROTTLE Tester. In the link below, look for the Blue-Voltage ELECTROTHROTTLE Bondle. That's exactly what you need to test this unit. Had you bought it before it would have paid for itself. www.autodiagnosticsandpublishing.com/etc_electrothrottle_electronic_throttle_tester.html

[@dodgemagumhemikiller4326]

@@ADPTraining thank you and i will check it out!

[@arivuazhagan442]

Thank you sir very good explain

[@panzerichi3837]

I think app caused limp mode in this dodge , now it has no compression in 4 cylinders two on each bank ,will limp mode cause miss timing leading to no compression? Please help

[@ADPTraining]

If it has cylinder deactivation, maybe. Normally no it won't.

[@rslubis3997]

Good info. My vehicle Toyota 100 Series 1HDFTE seems have problem with APP and throtle. OBD scan shows all ok. How to investigate which part need service? Sometimes run smooth and ok but randomly rpm drop or even engine was off. Restart ok. But problem comes again randomly. Thank you.

[@ADPTraining]

Ok, chances are throttle and APO are good. Your problem is something else, as in an air fuel issue, injectors, ignition, etc. autodiagnosticsandpublishing.com/

Here's also the Ebooks... www.autodiagnosticsandpublishing.com/Automotive_Diagnostic_Repair_Book_Catalog.htm

[@reefgratos2035]

In a jeep wrangler jku 16 i am getting etc error if i install a pedal commander (aftermarket throttle controller) inline and use a cb radio pointing toward the throttle sensor ! If i use a CB radio connected to the vehicle and the antenna connected to the vehicle ground,, with a pedal commander installed, the cb radio will also trigger an ETC error and check engine will light up. Idle will increase. If i remove the pedal commander and use the cb radio,,, no etc error light... What can be the cause of our problem?

[@ADPTraining]

Take the pedal commander and through it in the garbage. It's picking up EMI or electromagnetic interference from the CB. This is a sure sign of bad design. Good luck. autodiagnosticsandpublishing.com

[@reefgratos2035]

​@@ADPTraining yes i have removed the pedal commander but i need to understand why it was working before but not anymore.. maybe i have damaged the ECU , or the throttle sensor.. if a layer redundancy in the pedal throttle is damaged, maybe i will need to replace the pedal throttle just in case .. but it is $200

[@theslimdavylp23]

I took it apart and cleaned it and put it back but now the pedal is loose and has no resistance? What did I do wrong? Your help is appreciated 🙏🏽

[@ADPTraining]

You probably missed a spring. You're supposed to replace these. Cleaning won't do you good. I have a tool to test APP Sensors here www.autodiagnosticsandpublishing.com/ecm_reference_voltage.html

my Vito cuts out completely when accelerating hard and only when the engine is warmed up can this be the app sensor fault ?

You find the problem end you hunday I have the same problem

[@adon2424]

@ 2:00 you have 5v & ground pins identified and @ 3:10 you have 5v & ground pins identified in a different position. What gives? Are you working with two different models for the video? SUBSCRIBED

[@ADPTraining]

Watch carefully, on the second take the second ground is interchanged. The reason is obvious, one POT tracks inversely to the other, which is the idea for redundancy and reject IMI or interference.

Odd that you do not show your device or any other actually connected to the pedal you are testing.

[@ADPTraining]

??? Device

[@muhammadadeem3199]

Vauxhall adma p2122 2014

[@ADPTraining]

The P2122 OBD-II trouble, or fault, code means that the vehicle's on-board computer has detected low voltage in the throttle position sensor (TPS), which is usually below 0.17 volts. You can test this TPS by using my ELECTROTHROTTLE and the BLUE VOLTAGE found here. autodiagnosticsandpublishing.com/
