FIAT SCUDO 220 2.0 JTD ACCELERATOR / THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR

The photographed part is chalk-marked SCUDO 2005. Its housing, connector position and cable-pulley layout visually match the verified throttle-position-sensor reference family described below. The previous Lancia Phedra / camshaft-related identification should not be relied upon.

Do not order by year alone. Match vehicle generation + 2.0 diesel engine + cable-operated system + connector shape + mounting points + pulley layout + reference number where available. If anything differs, message us through eBay before purchase.

This is a cable-linked accelerator / throttle position sensor mounted in the engine compartment on vehicles without electronic throttle actuation. The circular pulley is driven by the accelerator cable mechanism. The sensor converts that movement into a continuous electrical position signal used by the engine-management system when calculating fueling / injection strategy.

Why correct indexing matters: the control unit needs a smooth and plausible position signal. Incorrect cable routing, a damaged connector, a sticking pulley or an incompatible sensor can produce the same symptoms as a failed sensor.

• Delayed, intermittent or inconsistent accelerator response
• Hesitation or flat spots when requesting power
• Reduced power or limp-home behaviour
• Engine-management warning light or stored position-signal fault codes
• Live-data position reading that jumps, drops out or does not move smoothly

1. Confirm the fault first with diagnostic scan data and inspect the accelerator cable, plug and wiring.
2. Switch ignition off, remove the key and follow the vehicle repair procedure for battery isolation if required.
3. Locate the cable-operated position-sensor assembly in the engine compartment.
4. Photograph the existing cable routing and pulley position before dismantling.
5. Release the electrical connector without pulling on the wiring.
6. Release the accelerator cable / retaining clip from the pulley mechanism as applicable.
7. Remove the sensor assembly fasteners and lift the assembly clear.
8. Compare old and replacement parts side-by-side: connector, mounting points, pulley stops, cable seat and overall housing must match.
9. Install without twisting or pre-loading the cable. Tighten fasteners to the vehicle manufacturer's repair specification; no unverified torque value is supplied here.
10. Reconnect, check smooth full pedal travel, scan live data / clear relevant codes as appropriate, then carry out a safe functional test.

• Designed around the vehicle's original connector, mounting geometry and cable mechanism.
• Helps avoid the adaptation and fitment uncertainty that can occur with unverified low-cost copies.
• Reusing serviceable vehicle parts reduces demand for newly manufactured replacements and keeps useful components in circulation.
• On selected recycled parts, savings can be up to 70% compared with buying new; the actual saving varies by part and current new retail price.

International delivery: where available, orders are handled through eBay's Global Shipping Programme to eligible destinations displayed at checkout. Destination availability, import charges and international delivery options are controlled by eBay and can vary by order.

Checkout address: please confirm your delivery address is correct before payment. We dispatch using the address attached to the eBay order and cannot manually redirect an order to a different address after checkout.
