Description
Throttle pedal for Citroën and Peugeot vehicles. May be manufactured by Hella or Bosch.
High-quality replacement throttle (accelerator) pedal assembly designed for Citroën and Peugeot models. The unit integrates the pedal mechanism with an electronic position sensor that communicates the driver’s input to the engine control unit (ECU). Ideal for professional garages and experienced DIY mechanics who search by part number to ensure fast compatibility checks. Compatible with original-style electrical connectors and mounting points for straightforward swap-in replacement.
Features And Benefits
- Direct replacement for OE-style accelerator pedal assemblies.
- Integrated pedal position sensor for precise throttle response and smooth drivability.
- Compatible With Hella And Bosch Manufactured Units.
- Fits Vehicles Where Listed Part Numbers Are Used — common search by part number improves findability.
- Sturdy construction with OEM-style mounting points for reliable long-term fitment.
How The Part Works
The throttle pedal assembly measures the driver’s pedal travel and converts it to an electrical signal (throttle position) sent to the ECU. The ECU then adjusts the throttle body/motor or engine management accordingly. Modern systems use electronic sensors rather than mechanical cables, so accurate sensor output and good electrical connections are essential for proper engine response and safety systems.
Installation Guide
Recommended For Experienced Mechanics Or Competent DIYers. Basic Replacement Steps:
- Park the vehicle on a level surface, engage the parking brake, and remove the ignition key.
- Disconnect the vehicle battery to avoid electrical faults while working on the sensor and wiring.
- Access the pedal mounting area (typically under the dash on the driver side) and unplug the electrical connector from the pedal assembly.
- Remove mounting bolts or screws securing the pedal assembly to the bracket and carefully withdraw the old unit.
- Install the new pedal assembly, secure with fasteners to the correct torque, and reconnect the electrical connector.
- Reconnect the battery, start the vehicle and verify proper idle and throttle response. Clear any related fault codes if present.
