Throttle Cable

A repair or service of accelerator pedal cable requires removal of engine air cleaner intake tube and duct before removing the bolt. The next step requires removing the splash shield retaining pin together with the accelerator control splash shield. After disconnecting the accelerator cable from the throttle body prepare tabs for releasing the cable from its accelerator cable bracket. The accelerator cable requires removal from its retainer positioned on the battery tray after taking off the tie wrap which stabilizes the cable to the brake master cylinder. The first step requires uncrossing the bolts that fasten the accelerator cable to the dash panel until complete removal of the instrument panel steering column cover. Reposition the accelerator cable from the dash panel before extracting it from the accelerator pedal and shaft together with the accelerator cable retainer. Execution of installation involves performing the steps in backward order.

The service process for throttle cable and linkage repair starts with removal of the engine air cleaner intake tube and duct followed by bolt and splash shield retaining pin to discard the accelerator control splash shield. Start by disconnecting the accelerator cable from the throttle body followed by depressing the tabs to break the connection of the accelerator cable from its bracket. After that remove the cable from the battery tray retainer. The transition starts by undoing the tie wrap that restrains the accelerator cable to the brake master cylinder then removing the bolts which anchor the accelerator cable to the dash panel. First remove the instrument panel steering column cover before detaching the accelerator cable from the dash panel and subsequently removing it from the accelerator pedal and shaft. Remove the accelerator cable retainer before taking out the cable from the dashboard panel. To reinstall the part use backward steps of removal.
