The accelerator pedal does not reach position fully released
• Check for obstacles disturbing the pedal motion • Check accelerator pedal mechanism - linkage between sensor and pedal arm - pedal return spring • Check connectors (to accelerator pedal sensor) • Check accelerator pedal sensor • Check wiring (to accelerator pedal sensor)
What you'll see
Accelerator pedal will not function as long as the fault is present. Accelerator pedal position information sent on the CAN-bus is labeled with an error indicator. Accelerator pedal kickdown information sent on the CAN-bus is labeled with an error indicator (if vehicle is equipped with kickdown). Downhill speed control is disabled Adaptive Cruise control is disabled Collision Mitigation (warning and/or brake assist) will be deactivated.
System reaction

Diagnostic depth
Signals from accelerator pedal normal sensor never reaches fully released position although brake pedal is pressed repeatedly . Accelerator pedal mechanism plausibly faulty.
• Obstacle disturbing the pedal motion • Defect accelerator pedal mechanism (linkage, return spring, etc.) • Defect accelerator pedal sensor (potentiometer) • Defect connectors • Defect wiring to accelerator pedal sensor
