Accelerator Position Sensor & Link Assembly
Mitsubishi FUSO®

The Accelerator Position Sensor & Link Assembly, also known as the APSLA, is a vital part of a commercial truck's engine system. This assembly is responsible for monitoring the position of the accelerator pedal and relaying that information to the engine control module (ECM). The APSLA is made up of two main components: the accelerator position sensor and the link assembly. The accelerator position sensor is a small electronic device that measures the position of the accelerator pedal and sends that information to the ECM. The link assembly is a mechanical component that connects the accelerator pedal to the sensor. Together, these components ensure that the engine receives the correct amount of fuel and air to operate efficiently. Without the APSLA, the engine may not receive the correct signals and could potentially stall or operate at a reduced capacity. It is important to regularly inspect and maintain the APSLA to ensure proper engine performance and avoid costly repairs.
