This sensor measures up to approximately 25mm (1 inch) of linear travel. Also known as the "String Pot" throttle position sensor, it connects to your throttle pedal or linkage with a string or thread. As you press the pedal, the string pulls on the rotary arm of the sensor.
This arrangement offers a safety advantage over linear (telescoping) sensors: If the sensor malfunctions and sticks, the string will collapse instead of holding the throttle open. It is also less prone to damage due to unexpected lateral motion. For use with all AiM Mychron3, MXL, and EVO3 / EVO4 automotive dashes and data loggers.
This sensor has the 719 (four-pin plastic push-on type) connector. Use an AiM 719-719 Patch Cable (Part No. MC-211) to connect to any AiM MXL series dash or the MyChron3 Gold Auto dash. The MyChron3 XG-Log dash and EVO4 logger require the AiM 719-712 Adapter Cable (Part No. MC-210).
