Standard Ignition Accelerator Pedal Sensor P/N:APS599
Keep your throttle input reading true with the Standard Ignition Accelerator Pedal Sensor APS253. This accelerator pedal position sensor drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2005-2013 Chevrolet Corvette [All], translating how far you press the pedal into an electrical signal the engine control module uses to command the electronic throttle.
The accelerator pedal position sensor is the driver's link to a drive-by-wire throttle: there is no mechanical cable, so the module relies on this signal to open the throttle. A failing pedal sensor may show up as hesitation, erratic throttle response, reduced-power or limp-home mode, or an illuminated check engine light. Because those signs can have other causes, diagnose the fault first; if the original pedal sensor is confirmed faulty, this APS253 replaces it.
Interchange: Manufacturer part number APS253.
What does this part do?
