Honda CR-V: APP Sensor Signal Inspection

indicated, troubleshoot them first, then do this
procedure.
- Press the accelerator pedal several times to check its operation. If it
does not operate smoothly, check the pedal. If you find a problem, replace
the accelerator pedal module.
1. Connect the HDS to the data link connector (DLC)

2. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
3. Make sure the accelerator pedal is not pressed,
then check the APP SENSOR in the DATA LIST with
the HDS.

the latest software, or substitute
a known-good PCM, then go to
step 4.
4. Make sure the accelerator pedal is not pressed,
then check the APP SENSOR in the DATA LIST with
the HDS.
- If it is 0 %, the APP sensor is OK.
- If it is not 0 %, replace the accelerator pedal
module, then go to step 1.
