I need a throttle position sensor for my truck. Ford wants over $300 for a pedal assembly they dont sell just the sensor. I thought at one time i found a site on here that sold just the sensor do any of you guys know the site? and also some say the new sensor needs to be calibrated some dont. which is it? my truck is a 2000 f350. Thanks Justin

 

Some have to have the entire assembly replaced, and others have the sensor which can be replaced individually without replacing teh sensor. I haven;t heard about having to recal the sensors.

Is yours the type with the adjustable pedal assembly, or just a standard fixed position pedal that cannot be adjusted up and down?

Reason I ask is that I had to replace my pedal assembly on my '02 last spring, and it was only about $80 plus S&H from Ed at Y2K Ford Parts... OEM unit, too. The sensor shows to be only $37.02 at Y2K Ford on their website....http://www.trademotion.com/partlocat...&siteid=214072

I sent Ed a PM for you... he'll chime in soon to help.

 

F81Z9F836AB is the part you need, I have two in stock


I will save you a bunch of money.

visit my site and order away.


send vin so I can double check part number.

 

mine is the fixed pedals they do not move.

 

Ed is a good guy..I havent used him yet...YET being the key word....

 

i will buy one from Ed i just have to get the time to get an account set up and everything lol im in the process of putting front springs,motor mount bushings,clutch,rebuilding the trans and rear ends in my dads cabover peterbilt. so ive been running around like a chicken with my head cut off

 

pick up the pace, my daughter needs new shoes. lol




sounds like my truck.....

just finished putting in a OEM 4r100 Trans, up pipes, late 99 turbo and a long list of other mods...... i'm so broke now


hanging out with all you diesel people is costing me money now. dam PMS

 

Be very, very careful about using the VIN as the only guideline. That's what I did with Kenny last year and ended up just getting the sensor when I ended up having one of those integral units where I had to replace both the sensor and pedal assembly as an entire unit.

In fact, I still have the in-the-box, brand-new, never-used-or-installed sensor that I would send you for $30 just to get it off my hands (and save you a few $$ as well), but that will only help you if you actually have a "replaceable sensor" system, unlike mine.

 

Is it the same part for early 99?
When I enter that part number on your site, the screen blinks and the search comes blank.

 

On my early 99 the IVS switch and the TPS sensor are separate parts and can be replaced individually. If you look real close you can see the part number for the whole assembly on the white sticker.

 

How do I figure out if I need the complete unit or just the sensor. I need to get on as well.

 

Do those sensors fix themself?
I did have few "jumps" when my engine chocked on green light acceleration last summer, but it is not happening lately. I drive the truck only occasionally but getting stranded 300 miles from home is not something I look forward.

 

Check out this PDF. It has some Ford part numbers. I am not endorsing Dorman but posted for info.

 

enter part number and then change the drop down link to Ford.


just tried it and it worked.

 

so if i got one like in the pic i can just buy a sensor and put it in?
