Acceleration Control

ACCELERATION CONTROL

See the Tribute Wiring Diagram for schematic information.

Inspection and Verification

WARNING: Make sure surrounding components such as wiring, hoses, sound insulation and floor carpeting are not contacting the sliding inner cable of the accelerator cable or the accelerator pedal and shaft. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
Verify the condition by operating the accelerator pedal and shaft from idle to wide open-throttle and back again. Check for any resistance in forward travel of the accelerator pedal and shaft or hesitation on return.
If a concern exists, visually inspect all components of the accelerator pedal and shaft. Look for damage or binding of the accelerator cable. Look for obstructions at the throttle body and accelerator pedal and shaft.
For vehicles equipped with cruise control, examine the cruise control cable. See - Service and Repair.
