ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION (APP) SENSOR INSPECTION [MZ-CD 1.6 (Y6)]


id0140b2803200


Visual Inspection

1.  Remove the APP. (See ACCELERATOR PEDAL (APP) REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [MZ-CD 1.6 (Y6)].)

2.  Verify that there are no metal shavings on the sensor.

3.  Visually inspect the APP sensor for the following:

•  Damage
•  Cracks
•  Rusted sensor terminal
•  Bent sensor terminal
―  If there is any malfunction, replace the APP sensor.

4.  Install the APP. (See ACCELERATOR PEDAL (APP) REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [MZ-CD 1.6 (Y6)].)


Voltage Inspection

1.  Connect the oscilloscope to the accelerator pedal connector terminal E and body ground.

2.  Turn the engine switch to the ON position (Engine off).

3.  Verify that the duty ratio at terminal E changes while operating the accelerator pedal as shown in the graph.
