Ford Ecosport: Acceleration Control / Description and Operation - Acceleration Control - Overview
Acceleration Control
The acceleration controls consist of the accelerator pedal and sensor assembly.
The throttle is controlled by an APP sensor on the accelerator pedal assembly. The APP sensor sends a signal to the PCM in response to throttle pedal movements initiated by the driver. The PCM sends a signal to the electronic throttle control which increases and decreases throttle position.
The engine management system electronically operates the throttle of the engine in response to throttle pedal movements initiated by the driver. In the event of a system failure, the engine management system might provides a "limp home" mode which allows the car to be driven with limited performance.
Depending on the system failure severity, the vehicle might not be able to be driven, for preserving the occupants safety.
