Hyundai Palisade (LX2): Engine Control System / Accelerator Position Sensor (APS)

Hyundai Palisade (LX2) 2020-2026 Service Manual / Engine Control/Fuel System / Engine Control System / Accelerator Position Sensor (APS)

Description and operation

Description

Installed on the accelerator pedal module, the Accelerator Position Sensor (APS) detects the rotation angle of the accelerator pedal. The APS is one of the most important sensors in engine control system. Therefore, each of the two sensors comprising the APS has individual power and ground line. The second sensor monitors the first and its output voltage is half the first one. If the ratio of the sensor 1 to 2 is out of the range (approximately 1/2), the diagnostic system judges that it is abnormal.

❮Oil Pressure Sensor (OPS)

Description and operation Description Continuous Variable Valve Timing (CVVT) system advances or retards the valve timing of the intake and exhaust valve in accordance with the ECM control signal which is calculated by the engine speed and load.

Injector❯

Description and operation Description Based on information from various sensors, the ECM can calculate the fuel amount to be injected.
