Dynamic Test

  1. Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the 5-volt reference terminal of the applicable APP sensor and 5 volts. Install a jumper wire between the low reference terminal and a ground.
  2. Sweep the sensor through the entire range while monitoring the voltage between the signal terminal and the low reference terminal with a DMM. The voltage should vary between 0.30-4.98 volts without any spikes or dropouts.
    • If the voltage is not within the specified range or is erratic, replace the accelerator pedal assembly.
