Accelerator Pedal (AP), Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) (Via The Electronic Throttle Module)

Measurement range 0-100 %.

The pulse width modulation (PWM) signal is transmitted from the accelerator pedal (AP) position sensor to the throttle unit (via the engine control module (ECM)). The signal then goes on to the Control area network (CAN) from the throttle unit to the engine control module (ECM).

The value indicates how the throttle unit interprets the accelerator pedal (AP) position.

Approximately 6 % = the accelerator pedal (AP) completely released.

Approximately 88 % = the accelerator pedal (AP) completely depressed.
