## Accelerator Controls Cable

### Removal Procedure

1. Remove the left instrument panel sound insulator. Refer to Insturment Panel, Gages And Console.
2. Remove the accelerator cable (1) from the accelerator pedal (2).
3. Remove the fuel injector sight shield.
4. Squeeze the accelerator cable cover tangs and push the accelerator cable through the bulkhead.
5. Remove the accelerator cable shield, if equipped.
6. Remove the accelerator cable (3) from the retaining clip (2).
7. Remove the accelerator cable from the throttle body lever.
8. Remove the accelerator cable from the accelerator cable bracket.

### Installation Procedure

Notice: Do not route flexible components (hoses, wires, conduits, etc.) within 50 mm (2 in) of moving parts unless flexible components can be securely fastened. This is necessary in order to prevent possible interference and damage to the component.

1. Install the accelerator cable through the bulkhead.
2. Install the snap retainer through the bulkhead.
3. Install the accelerator cable through the slot in the accelerator pedal lever.
4. Seat the snap retainer in the accelerator pedal lever.

Important: Check for complete throttle opening and closing positions by operating the accelerator pedal. Also check for poor carpet fit under the accelerator pedal.

The throttle should operate freely, without binding, between full closed and wide open throttle.
5. Install the accelerator cable to the throttle body lever.
6. Install the accelerator cable to the accelerator cable bracket.
7. Install the accelerator cable (3) into the retaining clip (2).
8. Install the left instrument panel sound insulator. Refer to Instrument Panel, Gages And Console.
9. Install the accelerator cable shield, if equipped.
10. Install the fuel injection sight shield.

Tighten
Tighten the bolt to 2 N·m (18 in lb) (VIN 1 Only).

## Accelerator Controls Pedal

### Removal Procedure

1. Remove the left instrument panel sound insulator. Refer to Insturment Panel, Gages And Console.
2. Remove the accelerator cable (1) from accelerator pedal (2).
3. Remove the accelerator pedal retainer (3).
4. Remove the accelerator pedal (2).

### Installation Procedure

1. Install the accelerator pedal (2).
2. Install the accelerator pedal retainer (3).
3. Install the accelerator cable (1) to accelerator pedal.
4. Install the left instrument panel sound insulator. Refer to Insturment Panel, Gages And Console.

Important: Check for complete throttle opening and closing positions by operating the accelerator pedal. Also check for poor carpet fit under the accelerator pedal.

The throttle should operate freely without binding between full closed and wide open throttle.

## Accelerator Controls Bracket

### Removal Procedure

1. Remove the fuel injector sight shield.
2. Rotate the throttle lever.
3. Disconnect the cruise control cable (1) from the bracket.
4. Disconnect the accelerator cable (3) from the bracket.
5. Remove wiring harness clip from bracket (2) (VIN K Only).
6. Remove the two bolts from the bracket.

### Installation Procedure

Notice: Do not route flexible components (hoses, wires, conduits, etc.) within 50 mm (2 in) of moving parts unless flexible components can be securely fastened. This is necessary in order to prevent possible interference and damage to the component.

1. Install the two brackets bolts.

Tighten
Tighten the bolts to 3 N·m (27 in lb)

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.

2. Install wiring harness clip (2) to bracket (VIN K Only).
3. Reconnect the accelerator cable (3) to the bracket.
4. Reconnect the cruise control cable (1) to the bracket.

Important: The throttle should operate freely, without binding, between full closed and wide open throttle.

5. Check for complete throttle opening and closing positions by operating the accelerator pedal. Also check for poor carpet fit under the accelerator pedal.
6. Install the fuel injection sight shield.

Tighten
Tighten the bolt to 2 N·m (18 in lb) (VIN 1 Only).
