The Hella 312437111 is an OE-quality accelerator pedal position sensor (APS), also known as a throttle position sensor or pedal travel transmitter, engineered to restore precise throttle control to your vehicle.
In modern drive-by-wire vehicles, the accelerator pedal no longer connects mechanically to the throttle. Instead, this sensor continuously monitors pedal position and transmits a direct-current voltage signal to the engine control unit (ECU), which then commands the throttle valve actuator or injection system accordingly. The result is immediate, accurate throttle response matched to driver input.
Key Features:
- OE-Level Precision: Delivers accurate pedal position data essential for smooth, consistent throttle response
- Dual-Signal Design: Utilizes the 6PV connector configuration for redundant signal output, supporting safe fault detection by the ECU
- High-Quality Construction: Built to withstand the mechanical stresses and thermal demands of continuous pedal operation
- Direct-Fit Replacement: Engineered to match original equipment specifications for straightforward installation
- Broad Application Coverage: Part of Hella's extensive APS sensor range with cross-references to numerous vehicle applications
- Hella CIPOS® or Potentiometer Technology: Hella accelerator pedal sensors are available in both contactless inductive (CIPOS®) and traditional potentiometer variants for application-specific accuracy
Common diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) associated with a failed accelerator pedal sensor include P0120, P0121, P0122, P0123, and P2135. If any of these codes are present, replacement with a quality sensor like the Hella 312437111 can restore proper engine management function.
