This sensor monitors the position of the clutch pedal assembly. It sends a signal to the vehicle's electronic control unit, which uses the data to manage engine speed, cruise control disengagement, and starter interlock logic. The sensor mounts directly on the clutch pedal bracket and interacts with the pedal arm as it travels through its arc. A failing sensor may cause erratic cruise control behavior or prevent the engine from starting. The original component is machined to match the bracket's mounting geometry and the pedal arm's travel profile, ensuring the signal threshold aligns with the clutch engagement point.
