Saturn LS Throttle Cable

The Saturn LS Throttle Cable creates a direct, reliable link between the gas pedal and throttle plate. As a result, engine power increases as soon as you press the pedal. The Throttle Cable is built as braided metal strands inside low friction sleeves. It attaches the accelerator pedal to the butterfly valve shaft. This means that the valve opens wider with every millimeter of pedal travel. So, it admits more air to the engine. This prompts the Powertrain Control Module to enrich fuel flow for brisk acceleration. Early Saturn sedans exclusively applied this mechanical arrangement, which was simple and had a crisp pedal feel. Later editions of the LS began to switch to electronic throttle control. In this, the physical Throttle Cable was replaced by pedal position sensors and an electric motor on the throttle body. This change makes the risk of sticking cords virtually nonexistent. Furthermore, the electronic interface allows for closer interaction with traction and stability systems. For purists, the original Throttle Cable design is still loved, but two distinct styles now exist, the classic steel Throttle Cable and the computer managed drive by wire arrangement. The main difference between these two is that one is a physical cable while the other sends electronic signals, but both aim to modulate air intake smoothly for every Saturn LS driver.

Each OEM Saturn LS Throttle Cable we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part. Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.

Saturn LS Throttle Cable Parts Questions & Experts Answers

  • Q: How to use the throttle cable specific on Saturn LS?
    A:
    The following procedure is specific to four-cylinder models. For V6 models, the throttle cable is not used. To begin, ensure that the ignition key is turned off. Disconnect the throttle cable from the throttle cam by rotating the cam counterclockwise, aligning the cable with the slot in the cam, and pulling the cable end plug out of its socket. Next, disengage the throttle cable from the cable bracket by removing the retainer and pulling the cable out of its slot. Trace the cable back to the firewall and disengage it from any clips or cable guides by prying open the hinged cable clamps and removing the cable. Inside the passenger compartment, disengage the lower end of the throttle cable from the accelerator pedal by pushing the upper end of the arm forward slightly and sliding the cable out of the slot. Detach the cable grommet from the firewall by pulling it out. Pull the cable through the firewall and remove it. To reinstall, follow the reverse of the removal steps. Finally, have an assistant depress and release the accelerator pedal while verifying that the throttle valve moves smoothly and easily from fully closed to fully open and back again.
