2008 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Accelerator Pedal Sensors

Building upon a foundation of premium full-line products established under NGK ignition and NTK oxygen sensor products, NTK’s expansion to technical sensors is part of our ongoing commitment to streamline product types and increase coverage under one premium brand: NTK, The Sensor Specialist. With over 80 years of automotive expertise, NGK’s family of automotive products are driven by extreme dedication to innovation, performance and quality. NTK is the only OE supplier with a full-line of technical sensors in the aftermarket for import and domestic vehicles. Drawing from OE experience, NTK sensors undergo extreme testing conditions that include thermal shock, vibration and OBD verification. NTK sensors are manufactured to ensure a quality that meets or exceeds OE specifications. As new vehicles incorporate connected and automated technologies, trust The Sensor Specialist for full-line market support and OE application technology.

Product Features:

• NTK’s Accelerator Pedal Sensors are manufactured to operational performance standards to meet or exceed OE fit, form and function to ensure proper control of vehicle speeds.
• The Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor measures movement of the gas pedal to determine requested engine/vehicle speed. An electrical signal is sent to the vehicle’s Powertrain Control Module (PCM).

The Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) sensor provides a signal identifying the location of the accelerator pedal to the engine control module. As the vehicle operator requests various degrees of torque from the engine the signal from the sensor provides the engine computer the necessary information to implement the request. The sensor provides two positive slope signals that have an offset voltage range and increase at different rates, the two signals from the sensor provide the engine computer with two unique signal inputs ensuring safety should one signal fail.

Product Features:

• Computer-Aided Design (CAD), laser scanning and 3D printing – utilizing Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) and Stereolithography (SLA) – in the part design process ensures speed-to-market and a precise fit guaranteed.
• Robust circuit board design increases durability due to heat, shock, and random electro-magnetic pulses (EMP) and power spikes.
• 100% thermo-shock and vibration tested to ensure superior performance in extreme conditions.
• 100% end-of-line tested to ensure accurate signal output providing product reliability, every time.
