Description

BOSCH throttle potentiometer For Citroen PEUGEOT cars

Part description

This Bosch gas pedal / throttle potentiometer is an electrical component designed for Citroën and Peugeot cars. It is used to convert the movement of the pedal into an electrical signal for the engine control system, so it has a direct effect on throttle response, smoothness of the ride and overall comfort of handling.

It is mainly searched for by the numbers 0280752251 and 9646702180, or also by the designation 1601K7 (NFP). If you are looking for a replacement for a non-functioning or irregularly functioning gas pedal, this is a practical choice for a quick repair without unnecessary compromises.

Installation recommendations

Generally/typically for gas pedal (potentiometer) replacement, it is an electronic part, where the key is the matching of the connector and the mounting. The exact steps may vary depending on the specific model and make of the car.

1) Before assembly

• Compare the new and original part: numbers 0280752251 / 9646702180, pedal body shape, mounting and connector type (number of pins and locking).
• Check for damage to the connector, connector latch, or nearby wiring.
• For the used part, check that the pedal mechanically moves smoothly and without stuttering.

2) Necessary tools and materials

• Normal set of hand tools (ratchet/extension or keys depending on the attachment in the car)
• Screwdriver/plastic pry bar for removing covers (if access is obstructed)
• Electrical contact cleaner (recommended) and a clean cloth
• Diagnostics to check values/any errors (recommended)

3) Step-by-step assembly procedure

1. Turn off the ignition and secure the vehicle against movement.
2. Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery (typically recommended for electrical parts).
3. Get access to the pedal (or remove the plastic covers in the footwell if they are in the way).
4. Disconnect the electrical connector of the pedal – release the fuse/latch first, don’t pull on the cables.
5. Undo the fasteners and remove the original pedal.
6. Compare the mount and connector again with the replacement part.
7. Place the replacement pedal in place and secure it with the original fasteners.
8. Connect the connector so that the fuse clicks clearly.
9. Put back any covers and check that nothing is restricting the movement of the pedal.
10. Connect the battery.
11. Turn the ignition on and check for any throttle/engine related warning lights.
• 4) Post-assembly checks and test drive/function verification
  • Verify smooth throttle response (no jerks or dropouts).
  • It is recommended to check with diagnostics that no faults are stored and that the value of the gas pedal changes smoothly.
  • Do a short test drive in safe conditions and observe the stable operation of the engine.

  5) The most common assembly mistakes + how to avoid them

  • Connector not clicked in → always check latch/safety lock.
  • Cabling damage during handling → do not pull the wires, work with the connector.
  • Confusion by appearance without checking numbers → verify the match against 0280752251 / 9646702180 / 1601K7.
  • Intrusion of dirt into the connector → clean the contacts and surroundings before connecting.

  Reasons why the part is damaged

  • Wear of the sensing part (potentiometer) due to long-term use – manifests itself in an irregular signal.
  • Moisture and oxidation of connectors or dirt in the footwell.
  • Mechanical damage (kicking the pedal, cracking of the attachment, deformation).
  • Problems in the wiring (broken wires, bad contact) that can cause an apparent “pedal failure”.
