  Q: How to replace the throttle cable on GMC Sonoma?

  A:

  First clear the air cleaner outlet duct then disconnect the cable from the Throttle Body before extracting it from the accelerator control cable bracket as well as the cable routing bracket. Disconnect the accelerator cable from its bracket clip then take off the left closeout and insulator panel. Begin by disconnecting the accelerator cable from the accelerator pedal followed by taking off the accelerator cable panel insulator retainer which is mounted on the accelerator cable. Before removing the cable users must compress the accelerator cable tangs before pushing it through the bulkhead. To install first guide the accelerator cable through the bulkhead while securing the accelerator cable panel insulator retainer onto the accelerator cable . Begin installation by mounting the accelerator cable to the Throttle Body with full insertion into the pulley groove yet keeping it away from the hook tab. Next, connect the accelerator pedal to its cable along with the bracket clip before installing the accelerator cable onto the Throttle Body until it fully seats within the pulley groove. Finally, secure the cable to the accelerator cable control bracket while attaching it to the cable routing bracket followed by reinstalling the air cleaner outlet duct. At this time check the accelerator pedal operation by turning on the ignition while keeping the engine off then using a scan tool to view the throttle position (TP) sensor parameter while depressing the accelerator pedal to the floor and releasing it to confirm full throttle position movement from 0 percent to 100 percent and back to 0 percent while ensuring the pedal has unrestricted movement. Reinstall the left closeout/insulator panel as the final step.
