Repair Volkswagen Passat B3-B4/Passat B3-B4>> Power supply system>> Power supply systems of petrol engines>> Accelerator cable
Carry out removal and installation of a cable of an accelerator in the following order:
– remove the lower panel of finishing from the driver for access to fastening of a cable of an accelerator to a pedal;
– pushing via the rubber plug disconnect an accelerator cable from a pedal;
– open a cowl;

Fig. 5.17. Connection of a cable of an accelerator to a butterfly valve: 1 – accelerator cable; 2 – regulator of a cable and U-shaped bracket; 3 – cable cover


– previously having removed a clamp, disconnect a cable of 1 (fig. 5.17) of an accelerator from a butterfly valve;
– pull a cover of a cable 3 up and disconnect it from the holder. The U-shaped bracket 2 before the holder regulates the provision of a cable and if it is necessary to remove an U-shaped bracket, measure the adjusting provision of a cable which will be required for adjustment at installation of a cable;
– note a cable arrangement, take it through a partition, and remove from the party of a motor compartment.
Installation is carried out to the sequences, the return to removal. Check that the butterfly valve opened and closed completely and moved freely and smoothly.
If adjustment of a cable of an accelerator is necessary on cars with the mechanical transmission, see off it as follows:

Fig. 5.21. Adjustment of a cable of an accelerator on cars with the mechanical transmission: 1 – to move the plug in the direction of an arrow; 2 – fastening bracket


– the bracket 2 (see fig. 5.21 ) adjustments of a cable needs to be established so that the butterfly valve was completely open at the accelerator pedal pressed against the stop;

Fig. 5.18. Adjustment of a cable of an accelerator on SOCH engines with the mechanical transmission


Fig. 5.19. Adjustment of a cable of an accelerator on DOCH engines with the mechanical transmission


– at completely released accelerator pedal the internal gap of a cable should not exceed 1,0 mm (fig. 5.18, 5.19) .
If adjustment of a cable of an accelerator is carried out on cars with the automatic transmission, see off it as follows:

Fig. 5.20. Adjustment of a cable of an accelerator on cars with the mechanical transmission: 1 – whetstone; 2 – pedal; 3 – limiter; and = 15 mm


– insert whetstone 1 (fig. 5.20) 15 mm thick between a pedal 2 accelerators and the limiter 3 and enshrine a pedal in this provision;
– on the end of a cable of an accelerator, at a butterfly valve, remove the cable plug completely to open a butterfly valve, then record it in this situation, having inserted a fixing bracket;
– release a pedal of an accelerator and remove whetstone;

Fig. 5.22. Check of turning on of the mechanism of a low gear (kick-down)


– check operation of the mechanism of inclusion of a low gear (kick-down), having connected an ohmmeter to plugs of the mechanism (fig. 5.22) . At completely released accelerator pedal resistance has to be equal to infinity;
– slowly press an accelerator pedal to a decrease pressure point (only not to the limiter), at the same time resistance has to be equal to zero.
