Airtex 5S15850 Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor

The Airtex 5S15850 is a direct-fit replacement Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor (APPS) engineered to restore proper throttle response and drivability. Also known as a throttle position pedal sensor or gas pedal sensor, this component monitors the position of the accelerator pedal and transmits an electronic signal to the engine control module (ECM), allowing the fuel and ignition systems to respond precisely to driver input.

Key Features:

• Direct OE replacement — designed to match the fit, form, and function of the original factory sensor
• Plug-and-play installation with no special programming or tools required
• Manufactured by Airtex, a trusted name in automotive electrical and fuel system components
• Engineered to withstand vibration, heat, and everyday driving conditions
• Helps resolve symptoms such as poor throttle response, hesitation, rough idle, or an illuminated Check Engine light

Airtex supplies over 2,100 SKUs covering more than 250 million vehicles in operation, and all products undergo rigorous testing — including vibration, thermal, and functional testing — to ensure reliable, long-term performance. The 5S15850 sensor is backed by Airtex's standard product warranty for added peace of mind.
