Mercedes Accelerator Pedal Sensor - VNE 2223001100

Product Information

An accelerator pedal sensor (also called an APP sensor) is an electronic device that monitors the position of the accelerator pedal and sends this data to the engine control module (ECM). Instead of using a mechanical throttle cable, modern vehicles rely on this sensor to regulate throttle response, fuel injection, and engine power. A properly functioning sensor ensures smooth acceleration, precise throttle control, and optimal fuel efficiency.

• Delayed or unresponsive acceleration, due to incorrect pedal position signals.
• Check Engine Light illumination, often with throttle-related diagnostic trouble codes.
• Engine hesitation, stalling, or reduced power (limp mode), caused by faulty sensor readings.

About VNE

VNE GmbH was founded in 2001 by Volker Natorp in Hamburg, Germany. Volker has a long, storied history in the automotive field. He began his career in the 1970s working for Wulf Gaertner and in the 1990s eventually branched out on his own to start his own sales repping agency. During that time, he represented TMD Friction (Pagid/Textar) and managed all of the North American sales for them and eventually added Schaeffler Automotive to his roster.

In 2007, VNE GmbH relocated to Ganderkesee, Germany and was renamed VNE Automotive GmbH & Co. With continuous growth, the decision was made to solely focus on developing VNE Automotive and, in 2014, the focus became reality with the commissioning of a new warehouse and office space. Today, VNE Automotive prides itself on never having followed the aftermarket trend. VNE Automotive operates in a highly specialized, niche product sector, by only offering OEM automotive spare parts to more than 50 countries worldwide. This is evident from the unique, and sometimes hard to find, product groups spanning engine management, body electrical, and brake systems.
