Method to remove the accelerator pedal of Emgrand GS: There are fixing screws under the accelerator pedal, just remove the screws below the accelerator pedal to take it off. The main function of the accelerator pedal is to control the opening of the engine throttle and regulate the engine's power output. The Emgrand GS is a car launched by Geely Auto, with dimensions of 4440mm in length, 1833mm in width, and 1573mm in height, a wheelbase of 2700mm, and a fuel tank capacity of 55 liters. In terms of configuration, the Emgrand GS comes standard with features like electrically adjustable mirrors, mirror heating, daytime running lights, automatic headlights, etc. For the interior, the Emgrand GS adopts Geely's family-style design language and also includes standard features such as a multifunction steering wheel, automatic air conditioning, and reverse radar.
I once disassembled the throttle pedal of my Emgrand GS myself. As a DIY enthusiast, I found the whole process quite straightforward but safety-conscious. The first step must be disconnecting the negative terminal of the battery to prevent any short circuits or electrical accidents. Then, remove the interior trim panel under the driver's seat, usually a plastic cover, by locating and unscrewing the correct screw positions—a Phillips screwdriver is sufficient. Once opened, you'll see the pedal secured by several bolts, with the electronic throttle also having a wire connector. Carefully check for any clips before unplugging the connector; don't pull it hard. After loosening the bolts, the pedal can be removed. To reinstall, just reverse the steps, but test the throttle response for sensitivity. The entire process takes less than half an hour, and regular cleaning can prevent sticking issues. I recommend keeping lubricant and cleaning cloths handy.
