BW065381 | Genuine Bendix Electronic Accelerator Treadle Pedal ET-2

1. Precise Engine Power Control

• The pedal sends a signal to the ECM, which then controls the Electronic Throttle Body to let in the right amount of air for the requested power.

2. Enable Drive-by-Wire Systems

• Modern “drive-by-wire” systems rely on the pedal’s electronic signal instead of a cable, allowing smoother and faster throttle response.

3. Improve Fuel Efficiency

• The ECM can optimize fuel delivery based on precise pedal input, reducing unnecessary fuel consumption.

4. Reduce Emissions

• By controlling airflow and fuel electronically, the system ensures cleaner combustion.

5. Integrate With Safety and Assistance Systems

• Works with cruise control, traction control, stability control, and engine-limiting functions, allowing the car to automatically manage engine power when needed.

1. Delayed or No Acceleration

• Pressing the pedal results in slow or no engine response.

2. Inconsistent Throttle Response

• The vehicle may surge or hesitate unexpectedly even if the pedal is steady.

3. Engine Stalls or Rough Idle

• The engine may stall when stopping or at low speeds, or idle roughly.

4. Vehicle Goes Into Limp Mode

• The system limits power and speed to prevent damage.

5. Check Engine Light

• The Engine Control Module detects incorrect pedal signals and triggers a warning.

6. Cruise Control Malfunctions

• The cruise control may fail to engage or behave erratically.

7. Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs)

• Codes like P2120, P2121, P2138, P2139 often indicate pedal sensor or circuit problems.
