Mazda CX-5 Service & Repair Manual: Accelerator Pedal Position (App) Sensor

Mazda CX-5 Service & Repair Manual / Engine / Control / Accelerator Pedal Position (App) Sensor

Purpose/Function

Detects the accelerator pedal depression amount as basic information for mainly determining the throttle valve opening.
Detects the accelerator pedal depression amount and inputs it to the PCM as an accelerator pedal opening angle signal.

Construction

Built into the accelerator pedal.
A hall element has been adopted as the detecting element for detecting the accelerator pedal depression amount.

Operation

Inputs the signal, which fluctuates according to the throttle valve opening/closing, to the PCM.

APP sensor characteristic

Fail-safe


DTC No.	Fail-safe function
P2122:00	Regulates the upper limit of the APP sensor output.
P2123:00	Regulates the upper limit of the APP sensor output.
P2127:00	Regulates the upper limit of the APP sensor output.
P2128:00	Regulates the upper limit of the APP sensor output.
P2138:00	Restricts the upper limit of the engine speed. Stops the drive-by-wire control (throttle valve is open at approx. 8° by return spring force).

Accelerator Pedal Position (App) Sensor Inspection

Voltage Inspection NOTE: Because the APP sensor is integrated in the accelerator pedal, replacing the APP sensor includes replacement of the accelerator pedal. 1. Connect the M-MDS t ...

Air Fuel Ratio (A/F) Sensor Heater Control
Outline Based on the control of the A/F sensor heater, a stabilized oxygen concentration is detected even at low exhaust temperatures, and feedback control of fuel injection even at cold engine start is made possible for improved cold temperature exhaust emission performance. ...

Exhaust System
Purpose, Outline A 4-2-1 exhaust system has been adopted which reduces residual gas in the cylinders using the scavenging effect and contributes to a high compression ratio. The loop structure of the exhaust pipes for the 4-2-1 system takes up less space. Structural Vie ...

One Way Clutch [Fw6 A EL, Fw6 Ax EL]
Purpose/Function The one-way clutch operates in 1GR and suppresses the counterclockwise rotation of the front internal gear (as viewed from torque converter side). Construction The one-way clutch consists of a mechanical diode-type one-way clutch, inner plate, and outer pla ...
