Accelerator pedal position sensor
APP sensor (accelerator pedal position) built into the pedal assembly. The sensor is a rotary potentiometer with two tracks.
APP sensor (accelerator pedal position) located in a plastic housing, which is integrated with the accelerator pedal. The body is injection molded and allows for the installation of an APP sensor (accelerator pedal position) . The sensor is mounted on the housing and secured with two cap screws "Torx". On the outer case of the sensor there is a six-pin connector for connecting to the general electrical network of the car.
The sensor is provided with a centering collar that protrudes into the housing and provides a pivot point for the pedal mechanism. The centering collar has a slot that allows the pin connected to the sensor potentiometers to rotate 90°when the pedal is moved. By means of a rod, the pedal is connected to the drum, which is engaged with the sensor pin, converting the rectilinear movement of the pedal into a rotational movement. 2 steel cables are connected to the drum. The cables are attached to 2 return springs, which are mounted at opposite ends of the housing. The springs register pedal movement and force the rider to apply a force similar to that of a cable-actuated throttle. In front of the body there is a locking mechanism, which is driven by a ball located on the drum. Near the end of the accelerator pedal stroke, the ball comes into contact with the detent mechanism. The spring in the mechanism is compressed, as a result of which, at the end of the pedal travel, the driver feels the pressure on the downshift switch.
Electronic Throttle
The electronic throttle body is located in the intake tract up to the point where the tract splits into 2 separate intake manifolds. The electronic throttle is driven by a DC motor and regulates the amount of air entering the intake manifold. This is done in accordance with the signals from the engine management system.
EGR valve/cooler lines immediately downstream of the throttle (exhaust gas recirculation systems) combined into one node.
