Description and operation

Description

Installed on the accelerator pedal module, the Accelerator Position Sensor (APS) detects the rotation angle of the accelerator pedal. As the APS is one of the most important sensors in the engine control system, each of its two sensors has independent power and ground line. APS 2 monitors APS 1, and its output voltage is half that of APS 1. If the ratio of APS 1 and APS 2 is out of range (approximately 1/2), the diagnostic system judges it as abnormal.

Kia Stinger (CK) 2018-2023 Service Manual: Keep your vehicle clean

The best way to prevent corrosion is to keep your vehicle clean and free of corrosive materials. Attention to the underside of the vehicle is particularly important. If you live in a high-corrosion area — where road salts are used, near the ocean, areas with industrial pollution, acid rain, etc.—, you should take extra care to prevent corrosion.
