Install is simple, a few bolts, and one plug. The sensor is conveniently placed right in the open behind the passenger side head light.

PT#MR578861

I had ordered mine on the 20th, and hopefully mine will be in early next week. But shipping to Canada is never fast.

 

I got the part last Friday, installed it Saturday afternoon, two bolts, a cable and a plug later my car is running like it used to. Thanks again guys.

 

Sorry to bring up an old thread but is there any place I can get this part for cheap from?

 

google the part number, i'm sure there's cheap parts out there...genuine OEM is only $200

 

I've been searching, all I've found were like three prong ones, ones for evos, or other motors, but I'll keep looking. Help me out? Haha.

 

I need this part too. MR578861. I had a fender bender with a tree last night and it broke the connector.

Would it be the same part as the 2.4L Eclipse?

 

Going by the picture, it has three prongs. The ones we have, have about 6-8 prongs. I found one but it's like 200+ shipping. If that's the best price I can get for a little sensor then that's our only option.

it's be more than that from the dealer...

 

That's insane. lol. I hope I get this job then. Man... Ralliart + First Car = POOR!

 

trust me you DO NOT want to buy this from the stealership. i paid over 300 when the ra was a daily for me

 

So this is my best option huh? lol.

 

My car was towed to the Stealership yesterday, I asked for a quote on the accelerator position sensor. I might just try and sell this car to someone...I will have to wait for the body shop appraisal...

Been a tough month, broke my ankle, ended a long-term relationship, now crashed my car...still don't have confirmation of my next contract as such I'm not working...FML.

 

sadly, there's always worse things that could happen...keep your head up, and things will come around...

 

Damn all that? Wow, keep your head up man! You got the EvoM forum for support!
