Jeep Wrangler Throttle Cable
The Throttle Cable of a Jeep Wrangler provides the essential mechanical link between the driver's foot and the engine. Pedal movement swings the throttle plate to manage airflow and power output. The early sport utility versions of the Jeep, the classic Wrangler editions, applied a braided steel Throttle Cable that ran from the accelerator pedal to the throttle body shaft. Thus, when you press the pedal and pull the butterfly valve open, the powertrain control module sensors notify the engine to add fuel. The design of a Throttle Cable allows for easy inspection in case of delays. As technology progressed, Jeep incorporated electronic throttle control on later Wrangler years. This innovation replaced the conventional Throttle Cable. The Wrangler now employs pedal position sensors and an electric motor to reposition the Throttle Cable plate. The electronic throttle control works well with traction and stability systems. It also avoids sticking or stretch that may plague cables. As a result, there are now two different types of the unit. The original version is the cable-driven type. The new design is the drive-by-wire type. The main difference is that of a tangible steel pull versus PCM-directed electrical pull. The other differences are more or less based on the Wrangler generation. This gives the current Jeep fan a clearer idea of which part to buy.

Jeep Wrangler Throttle Cable Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How Can the Throttle Cable Adjustment Resolve Shifting Issues on Jeep Wrangler?A:The Throttle Cable (TV) linkage or cable can be adjusted to correct harsh, delayed, or erratic shifting and lack of kick down. Begin by removing the TV control rod spring and using it to hold the adjusting link against the nylon stop in the forward position. Block the choke open and set the throttle off the fast idle cam. For models with a throttle-operated solenoid valve, turn the ignition switch on to energize the solenoid, then open the throttle halfway to lock it before returning it to the idle position. Raise the vehicle and support it securely with jackstands. Loosen the retainer and clamp bolts on the TV linkage adjusting link. Use a spare spring to hold the transmission TV lever all the way forward against the stop, hooking the spring to the bell housing boss. Push on the end of the link to eliminate any lash, pull the clamp to the rear until the bolt bottoms in the rear of the rod slot, and tighten the clamp bolt. Pull the TV control rod to the rear until the rod bolt bottoms in the front rod slot and tighten the retainer bolt. Install the TV control rod spring, remove the extra spring from the transmission lever, and lower the vehicle. With the ignition switch in the Off position, retract the cable adjuster by depressing the button and pushing the conduit in. Rotate the throttle lever on the throttle body to the wide-open position, hold it open, and allow the cable conduit to extend fully, which automatically adjusts the cable. Once the conduit is fully extended, release the adjuster button. Finally, depress the accelerator pedal to the floor and have an assistant check that the throttle lever on the throttle body moves to the full-throttle position without binding.
