  1. Unplug accelerator switch connector. Connect ohmmeter to switch connector terminals and check continuity.
  2. With pedal released, continuity should exist (switch is on). With pedal depressed, no continuity should exist (switch is off). To adjust accelerator switch, ensure throttle valve is fully closed.
  3. Loosen switch adjusting screw completely. Now slowly tighten screw until continuity is made. Tighten screw and additional 1 1/2 turns. On GLC, models continuity should no longer exists past 3/4 depression of accelerator pedal.
