Caterpillar 266-1468 is the throttle pedal position (angle) sensor with lead and connector. It is used on Caterpillar trucks, articulated trucks and G / K series wheel loaders. This aftermarket version has the same mounting and electrical connector as the original, so it plugs in and bolts on where the old one came off.
Sold as one unit. Check the number on your old part, or in the parts manual for your machine, before ordering.

Engine speed will not follow the dial
When the throttle positioner sensor fails, the controller cannot see where the throttle is and the engine hunts, sticks at one speed or will not rev.
Fault codes
A throttle position fault code points to the sensor, its plug or the wiring. Measure the signal with a meter before replacing.
Worn track
The sensor wears with use; a dead spot in the signal gives jumpy engine speed.
Fitting tips
Fit the sensor in the same position as the old one and calibrate the throttle as the machine manual describes.
