Checking Pedal sensor [EB7]



Checking Pedal Sensor





- Ignition off.
- Disconnect pedal sensor.





Connect an ohmmeter between pedal sensor terminals 1 and 2.





With the pedal sensor tip released (position 1), the ohmmeter should read 224-274 Ohms. When the tip is pushed in, the ohmmeter should read 7 stable resistances, see table. Move tip both ways as far as it will go. Only spring resistance should be felt, no jerking or sticking should occur. Push tip sideways slightly to see if there is any open circuit in the sensor.

If readings are OK:
- Check signal lead EB8. Checking Signal Lead [EB8]

If readings are incorrect or pedal sensor tip is sticking:
- Try another pedal sensor as per LF. Pedal sensor, replacement. Service and Repair
