Accelerator Potentiometer Pedal HELLA for Citroën C2, C3 and Peugeot 1007, 207, 307, 308
This replacement accelerator pedal with integrated potentiometer is a direct-fit part for a range of Citroën and Peugeot models. Designed to deliver precise throttle position feedback to the engine management unit, the unit restores smooth throttle response and reliable drive-by-wire control. Ideal for professional workshops and experienced DIY mechanics who need a dependable, OE-cross-referenced pedal assembly (6PV009083-00 / 1601T5 / 9680756880).
Key Benefits
– Accurate Throttle Position Sensing: Integrated potentiometer provides a linear position signal for stable engine response.
– OE Cross References: Matches common Stellantis/PSA part numbers used on Citroën and Peugeot small cars.
– Direct Replacement: Designed for a straightforward swap with the original pedal assembly.
Applications And Compatibility
Fits The Following Models (Typical Applications): Citroën C2, Citroën C3, Citroën C3 Pluriel, Peugeot 1007, Peugeot 207, Peugeot 307, Peugeot 308. Often Searched By Part Numbers: 6PV009083-00, 9680756880, 9680756880-02, 9835904480, 1601T5.
How It Works
The unit is an electronic accelerator pedal assembly with an integrated potentiometer (throttle position sensor). As the driver depresses the pedal, the potentiometer changes resistance (position signal) which is read by the engine control unit to determine throttle opening and adjust fuel/air delivery and engine torque. Proper operation is essential for smooth acceleration, idle control and engine safety strategies.
Replacement Procedure (Overview)
Recommended For Mechanics And Skilled DIYers: Disconnect the vehicle battery before starting. Remove lower dash or pedal trim to access the pedal assembly. Unplug the electrical connector and remove the mounting fasteners (retain original hardware if required). Install the new pedal, reconnect the wiring harness and secure all fasteners to the vehicle manufacturer’s specifications. Reconnect the battery, clear any throttle-related fault codes and perform throttle adaptation/calibration using a suitable diagnostic tool if required. Perform a thorough functional test and road-check to verify smooth response.
Installation Recommendations
– Always Disconnect The Battery Before Removal To Prevent Damage To The Electronics.
– Follow Manufacturer Service Procedures For Access And Removal To Avoid Breaking Trim Clips Or Fasteners.
– Inspect Wiring Harness And Connector For Damage Or Corrosion; Repair As Necessary Before Fitting New Pedal.
– After Installation, Clear Fault Codes And Perform Throttle Relearn/Adaptation With A Compatible Diagnostic Tool To Ensure Correct ECU Behaviour.
– Torque Fasteners According To Manufacturer Specifications; Do Not Overtighten Plastic Mounting Points.
