Description
Bosch accelerator pedal for Citroën and Peugeot vehicles.
High-quality Bosch electronic accelerator pedal assembly designed for drive-by-wire throttle systems on select Citroën and Peugeot models. This replacement unit is intended for professional workshops and experienced DIY mechanics who require a reliable pedal sensor with original-style fitment. Commonly searched by part numbers 0280755103 and 9681990080, this pedal delivers precise throttle position feedback to the engine control system for smooth acceleration and accurate idling behavior.
The pedal features an integrated position sensor (potentiometer/Hall effect sensor depending on production version) and a sealed electrical connector to reduce ingress of dirt and moisture. It is suitable where the original part has failed or developed intermittent faults, restoring proper throttle response and eliminating limp-home modes caused by faulty pedal signals.
Technical Information
- Manufacturer: Bosch
- Model: Citroën Berlingo, Citroën C4 Picasso, Peugeot Partner
- Product Codes: 0280755103, 9681990080
- Other Numbers: 1601AG, 1601EA
Compatibility
This pedal is used on a range of Stellantis Citroën and Peugeot models, notably Berlingo, C4 Picasso and Partner variants. Fitment can depend on engine type and production version, so verify the replacement against the original part numbers stamped on the old pedal or the vehicle’s service documentation before installation.
Installation Recommendations
- Disconnect the negative battery terminal before starting work to prevent short circuits and protect vehicle electronics.
- Access the pedal assembly from the driver footwell—remove any lower trim panels as required to reach the mounting bolts and electrical connector.
- Unplug the electrical connector carefully, avoiding damage to the locking tab. Remove the mounting bolts and extract the pedal module.
- Fit the new pedal in the reverse order: secure mounting bolts to the manufacturer torque specification, connect the electrical plug, and reinstall trim panels.
- After installation perform an ignition cycle (key on/off) and test throttle response. Some vehicles may require adaptation or calibration of the accelerator pedal using a diagnostic tool; if uncertain, complete adaptation with appropriate diagnostic equipment.
- Avoid forcing connectors or over-tightening fasteners. Inspect wiring and connector pins for corrosion or damage and repair if necessary before finalizing the installation.
Most Common Failure Causes
- Wear or degradation of the internal position sensor (potentiometer or Hall sensor) leading to erratic signals.
- Contamination from dust, moisture or salt causing connector corrosion or sensor malfunction.
- Mechanical damage to the pedal lever or mounting points from impact or excessive force.
- Wiring harness damage or poor grounding creating intermittent faults and triggering engine management warnings or limp mode.
- Electrical failures within the sensor electronics resulting in loss of accurate throttle position data.
Replacing a faulty accelerator pedal typically restores correct throttle control and removes related fault codes. Always compare part numbers (0280755103 / 9681990080 / 1601AG / 1601EA) to ensure correct selection for your vehicle.
Ideal for professional mechanics and competent DIY enthusiasts seeking a direct-fit Bosch replacement pedal for Citroën and Peugeot models where the original throttle pedal has failed or become unreliable.
