Product Description
The Bendix 5002358 ET-S Electronic Throttle Potentiometer Kit is a genuine replacement component designed for commercial vehicles equipped with compatible Bendix ET-S electronic accelerator pedal assemblies and Detroit Diesel electronic engine controls. This service kit allows technicians to replace a worn or malfunctioning throttle potentiometer without replacing the complete accelerator pedal assembly.
The potentiometer converts accelerator pedal movement into an electrical signal that communicates the driver's requested throttle position to the engine's electronic control system. Accurate throttle position information is essential for smooth acceleration, consistent engine response, and reliable electronic throttle operation.
Designed for Bendix ET-S electronic treadle assemblies, the 5002358 features a three-pin electrical connector and includes the mounting screws required to secure the replacement potentiometer.
