What does automobile aps mean?

Aps means accelerator pedal, also called accelerator pedal. Its main function is to control the throttle opening of the engine, thus controlling the power output of the engine.

Accelerator pedal, generally speaking, stepping on the accelerator pedal changes the accelerator opening. Thereby increase that air intake of the engine. So as to achieve the purpose of improving the rotating speed. The accelerator pedal of some cars is connected with the accelerator of the engine through the accelerator cable or pull rod, and the driver directly controls the accelerator when stepping on the accelerator pedal. Now many vehicles use electronic accelerator, and the accelerator pedal and accelerator are no longer connected by accelerator cable.

The accelerator pedal of the electronic accelerator is equipped with a displacement sensor. When the driver steps on the accelerator pedal, ECU will collect the opening change and acceleration of the displacement sensor on the pedal, judge the driver's driving intention according to the built-in algorithm, and then send corresponding control signals to the control motor of the engine accelerator, thus controlling the power output of the engine.
