Accelerator Controls Accelerator Cable
Removal Procedure
- Left sound insulator. Refer to Instrument Panel,
Gauges and Console
.
- Release the cable retainer from the lever assembly.
- Depress the cable tangs and push forward toward engine compartment.
- Remove the accelerator cam splash shield.
- Remove the engine accelerator control cable out of bracket.
- Depress tangs on cable through the cable throttle body bracket.
- Remove the cable from the vehicle.
Installation Procedure
- Route cable (1) through the cable bracket (4)
- Press cable upward through the bracket.
Ensure tangs expand and properly seat.
- Install the engine accelerator control cable to cam.
- Install the accelerator cam splash shield.
- Install the cable to the cowl, making sure tangs are fully expand
and seat.
- Slip the accelerator cable through slot in rod of the accelerator
pedal and install the retainer in rod, being sure it is seated.
- Ensure the cable is completely seated in the throttle cam past
the retaining clips.
Important: Flexible components (hoses, wires, conduits, etc.) must not be routed
within 50 mm (2.0 in) of moving parts of accelerator linkage
outboard of support unless routing is positively controlled.
- Check for correct opening and closing positions by operating the accelerator
pedal. Make sure that the throttle valve reaches wide-open throttle position.
If it does not, inspect for damaged or bent brackets and lever
- Install the left sound insulator. Refer to Instrument Panel, Gauges and Console
.

Removal Procedure
- Remove the cross slug (3) from the throttle body slot.
- Depress the tangs and remove the cable (1).
- Remove the bolts (1) to the throttle body (3).
- Remove the bracket (2).
Installation Procedure
- Install the bracket (2) to the throttle body (3).
- Install the bolts (1).
Tighten
Tighten the bolts to 6.5N·m (58 lb in)
Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners
must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring
replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant
are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or
corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified.
These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage
the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when
installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
- Install the cable (1) to bracket, making certain the tangs are fully
expand in the bracket.
- Install the cross slug (3) into the throttle body slot.
Important: Flexible components (hoses, wires, conduits, etc.) must not be routed
within 50 mm (2.0 in) of moving parts of accelerator linkage
outboard of support unless routing is positively controlled.
- Check for correct opening and closing positions by operating accelerator
pedal. Make sure that the throttle valve reaches wide-open throttle position.
If it does not, inspect for damaged or bent brackets, lever, or other components;
or, for poor carpet fit under the accelerator pedal.
Accelerator Controls Accelerator Pedal
Removal Procedure
- Remove left sound insulator.
- Remove the release cable (1) retainer from lever assembly.
- Remove the nuts to cowl.
- Remove the pedal assembly (2).
Installation Procedure
- Install the pedal assembly
(2) to cowl.

- Install the nuts to cowl.
Tighten
Tighten the nuts to 30 N·m (25 lb ft).
- Slip accelerator cable (1) through slot in rod and then install
retainer in rod, being sure it is seated.
- Install the left sound insulator.
Important: Flexible components (hoses, wires, conduits, etc.) must not be routed
within 50 mm (2.0 in) of moving parts of accelerator linkage
outboard of support unless routing is positively controlled.
- Check for correct opening and closing positions by operating accelerator
pedal. Make sure that the throttle valve reaches wide-open throttle position.
If it does not, inspect for damaged or bent brackets, levers, or other components;
or, for poor carpet in under the accelerator pedal.
