  Q: How to service and repair the throttle cable and linkage on Ford Crown Victoria?

  A:

  Start the throttle cable and linkage servicing by disconnecting the ground cable of the battery and the electrical connector of the accelerator pedal sensor except for fixed pedal assemblies that do not function properly and exist without connection. Stage one requires disconnecting the accelerator pedal motor electrical connector followed by disconnecting the accelerator pedal motor drive cable connector when the system includes adjustable features. Remove the three nuts from the accelerator pedal retainer bracket before taking out the assembly together with the bracket. Position the accelerator pedal and bracket assembly so it can be installed by applying three retainer nuts at 9 Nm (80 lb-in). The procedure to install an accelerator pedal motor drive cable connector applies to vehicles that utilize adjustable accelerator pedal and bracket components. The service unit for fixed pedal and bracket assemblies differs from original specifications while the non-working accelerator pedal motor electrical connector requires different connection points according to harness length. Play the electrical connector for the accelerator pedal motor before plugging in the accelerator pedal sensor electrical connector and completing the battery ground connection. A proper indexing procedure should be followed when working on adjustable accelerator pedal and bracket assemblies.
