Specification: 12 - 97 %
- Check specification of Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor 2 G185 in field 4, while engine is idling.
Specification: 4 - 49 %
NOTE:
- The engine control module converts the voltage of the angle transmitter in percent, based on 5 volts, and displays it (5 volts represents 100 %).
- Slowly actuate accelerator to wide open throttle and simultaneously observe percentages displayed in fields 3 and 4:
- The percentage in field 3 should increase steadily. Here, the range of tolerances 12 - 97 % is not totally utilized.
- The percentage in field 4 should increase steadily. Here, the range of tolerances 4 - 49 % is not totally utilized.
