Chrysler Laser Throttle Cable
The Throttle Cable of Chrysler Laser connects the foot of the driver mechanically and lets it control the air flow and thus power of the engine. The Chrysler Laser models employed a braided steel Throttle Cable that stretched from the accelerator pedal to the throttle body. As the pedal was pressed on, it would pull the butterfly plate open. Further, the Powertrain Control Module would read various sensors, including the Throttle Position Sensor. The readings from the sensors would help the Powertrain Control Module adjust the fuel flow in the engine. The design is simple and fast with fewer components. Inspection remains easy for Chrysler owners. Subsequent models of the Laser car production were fitted with Electronic Throttle Control, using sensors and a motor on the throttle body instead of a Throttle Cable, which reduced the risk of sticking and connected to the traction systems. Nonetheless, restorers prefer to utilize the old Throttle Cable due to its uncomplicated feeling and the ease with which it can be inspected. The only basic style of Chrysler cable that was factory installed came with corrosion resistant strands and factory set length. The difference among cables largely pertains to cable versus electronic setup across production years. When a cable equipped Laser shows delayed acceleration or has a frayed strand, a new Throttle Cable will restore smooth pedal action.

Chrysler Laser Throttle Cable Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How does the throttle cable affect shift quality and speed, and what are the necessary adjustments on Chrysler Laser?A:The throttle cable controls a valve in the transaxle that affects shift quality and speed, and if shifting is harsh or erratic, adjustment of the throttle cable is necessary, which should be done with the engine at normal operating temperature. For 1984 and 1985 models, loosen the cable adjustment bracket lock screw, ensuring the bracket can slide freely; if needed, clean the slot and sliding surfaces. Slide the bracket to the left to its limit, then move the throttle lever all the way to the right against the internal stop before tightening the lock screw to the specified torque. For 1986 models, loosen the cable mounting bracket lock screw and position the bracket so the alignment tabs contact the transaxle casting, then tighten the lock screw. Release the cross-lock on the cable assembly, ensuring it can slide toward the engine against the stop, then move the transaxle throttle control lever clockwise to the internal stop and press the cross-lock down to lock it in place. Avoid lubricating any throttle linkage components on later models. Finally, check the cable action by moving the transaxle throttle cable forward, releasing it slowly, and ensuring it returns completely.
