systems, the data parameter display ranges from 0.680 to 1.320; on ME27 systems, from 0.750
to 1.280.
PEDAL VALUE SENSOR SIGNAL 1
PEDAL VALUE SNSR REF.POT.MTR R1
PEDAL VALUE SENSOR SIGNAL 2
PEDAL VALUE SNSR REF.POT.MTR R2
Range: ________________________________________________________ 0 to 5.00 V
Used on ME10, ME20, ME27, ME28, and SIM4 systems. These parameters display the ECU
input signals from the pedal position and electronic throttle actuator sensors. This is a
drive-by-wire system with no mechanical throttle linkage. An electronic actuator controls the
throttle valve to regulate the idle speed, cruise control operation, driving on the basis of
accelerator position, traction control system, Electronic Stability Program (ESP), and emergency
running. The accelerator pedal position is detected by two potentiometers that transmit input
signals to the ECU. Based on these signals, the ECU controls the electronic throttle actuator.
One pot is in the pedal value sensor and the other is in the electronic actuator. The throttle
actuator supplies a reference value for a plausibility check. If one pot fails, the system switches
to the other one. The voltages from both pots should change simultaneous with throttle change.
The display should read between 0.2 and 0.5 volts (V) at idle. Typical normal readings at idle for
Sensor 1 are 0.20 to 0.50V; Sensor 2 are 0.10 to 0.40V. At wide open throttle (WOT), typical
normal readings for Sensor 1 are 4.30 to 4.80 V; Sensor 2 are 2.10 to 2.50V.
PEDAL VALUE
Range: ________________________________________________________ 0 to 5.00 V
Used on HFM systems. This parameter displays the ECU input signal from the pedal position
sensor. Voltage varies according to operating conditions. The HFM system does not use a drive
by wire electronic throttle actuator. Instead, a mechanical throttle linkage connects to an
electronic actuator on the throttle body. The actuator has an integral clutch that overrides the
mechanical linkage under certain conditions. The System controls idle, cruise control, and
accelerator slip regulation (ASR), which is controlled by the EA/CC/ISC module.
PRESSURE CONTROL
Range: __________________________________________________________ ON/OFF
Used on ERE_EVE_ASF (IFI Diesel). This parameter should read ON whenever turbo boost is
controlled by the ECU. The boost pressure transducer is actuated by the ECU with variable
current which regulates the boost pressure vacuum unit. The pressure control valve is closed by
the boost pressure control valve vacuum transducer through the vacuum unit which directs
exhaust gas against turbine wheel.
PURGE CONTROL
Range: __________________________________________________________ ON/OFF
Used on ME27 and ME28 systems. This parameter indicates whether the purge control valve is
on or off.
PURGE FACTOR F 1
PURGE FACTOR F 2
PURGE FACTOR F 3
PURGE FACTOR F 4
Range: _________________________________________________________ 0 to 100%
Used on HFM systems. These parameters display the opening of the canister purge valve as a
percentage.
