- Durable Construction — Hella Manufacturing Standards For Long-Term Reliability.
- Suitable For Common Citroën And Peugeot Models Where Part Number Matches.
Compatibility
Typical Fitment Includes: Citroën C2, Citroën C3, Citroën C3 Pluriel, Peugeot 1007, Peugeot 207, Peugeot 307. Always match the part number (see Technical Information) with the vehicle parts list or existing component before ordering.
Symptoms Of A Faulty Throttle Pedal
- Intermittent Or Erratic Throttle Response.
- Engine Reduced Power Or Limp Mode Activated.
- Throttle Warning Light Or Engine Management Light On.
- Hesitation On Acceleration, Sticking Pedal, Or Unstable Idle.
Why The Part Most Commonly Fails
Electronic throttle pedals normally fail due to wear of the internal position sensor (potentiometer or Hall sensors), contamination from moisture or dirt, connector corrosion, or damage to the wiring harness. Prolonged exposure to heat and vibration can accelerate wear and give rise to intermittent faults or complete sensor failure.
Installation Recommendations
- Disconnect The Battery Before Starting Work To Avoid Short Circuits And Protect The Vehicle Electronics.
- Remove Interior Trim Panels As Required To Access The Pedal Assembly. Keep Fasteners Organized For Reinstallation.
- Unplug The Electrical Connector And Unbolt The Pedal Assembly From Its Mounting Points. Inspect Wiring And Connector For Damage Or Corrosion.
- Fit The New Pedal Assembly In Reverse Order. Ensure Correct Alignment And Secure Fastening To Manufacturer Torque Recommendations.
- After Installation, Clear Any Stored Fault Codes With A Diagnostic Tool And Perform Throttle Adaptation/Calibration If Required. Use A Diagnostic Tool That Supports Stellantis Adaptation Procedures For Best Results.
- If The Vehicle Exhibits Drive-By-Wire Faults After Replacement, Recheck Connector Pins, Wiring Continuity, And Perform Full System Diagnostics.
