View of accelerator pedal module B37 Accelerator pedal sensor KdS Kick-down simulator Task The accelerator pedal sensor converts the mechanical operation input by the accelerator pedal into an electrical voltage corresponding to the accelerator pedal position.
		P30.20-2076-05

The kickdown simulator is not an electrical component. It is designed to make it easier for the driver to sense with his foot the point at which the accelerator pedal is fully depressed (full load position).

On models 215 and 220, up to MJ 02, the kick-down switch is fitted instead of the kick-down simulator (S16/6).

Function The accelerator pedal sensor operating on the Hall principle is integrated in the pedal lever shaft and consists of a shaft with a ring magnet. This rotates in a printed circuit board with stator in the fixed Hall elements. This produces a change in the voltage. Information on the accelerator pedal position is sent as two voltages at pin 4 (at around 0.2 to 2.25 V) and at pin 5 (at around 0.4 to 4.5 V) to the ME control unit (N3/10).

The accelerator pedal sensor is supplied with 5 V voltage through pin 1 by the ME control unit. Pin 3 and 6 are ground connections. The accelerator pedal sensor can only be replaced completely with an accelerator pedal module!
