Description and operation
Accelerator Position Sensor (APS) is installed on the accelerator pedal module
and detects the rotation angle of the accelerator pedal. The APS is one of the most
important sensors in engine control system, so it consists of the two sensors which
adapt individual sensor power and ground line. The second sensor monitors the first
sensor and its output voltage is half of the first one. If the ratio of the sensor
1 and 2 is out of the range (approximately 1/2), the diagnostic system judges that
it is abnormal.
