Accelerator Pedal Module - GX2-, CHECKING
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2015 Audi A4 Quattro, 2014 Audi A4 Quattro, and 2013 Audi A4. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
General Description
The Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor -G79- and Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor 2 -G185- are combined in one component and integrated into the Accelerator Pedal Module - GX2-. They are used to detect the position of the accelerator pedal throughout the entire adjustment range. The Engine Control Module - J623- detects the driver's request from these signals and uses them to calculate the injection quantity and EPC Throttle valve operation.
The Accelerator Pedal Module - GX2- contains the following components:
- Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor -G79-
- Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor 2 -G185-
The Accelerator Pedal Module - GX2- components cannot be serviced separately, and must be serviced as a unit.
