Car Forum / Dodge / Dodge Cars / February 2009Replacing accelerator cable 95 Grand Voyager
Need to replace the accelerator cable on my 95 Grand Voyager, it is frayed near the throttle body where it comes out of the plastic sheath and is starting to bind. Can't seem to find any info on how to replace it. Does just the cable get replaced or is it the whole unit(cable, sheath, clips, etc) that is typically replaced? It's got to be fairly easy to do. Should I just dink around with it till I figure it out? I'll most likely go to a salvage yard to find a replacement so I don't want to take all day doing it.Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Replace the complete cable and be done with it. It is easy to do and you dont have to worry about crimping on ends.

That sounds like the best solution to me, I like easy. Thinking now that I'll get a new one from the dealer, will call tomorrow to see how much they want for one. Thanks for the reply. >Need to replace the accelerator cable on my 95 Grand Voyager, it is frayed >near the throttle body where it comes out of the plastic sheath and is [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] >salvage yard to find a replacement so I don't want to take all day doing >it.Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. FWIW, you may just end up with another impending failure with a junk yard part. It may also be best to avoid a "universal replacement", as it's likely to have couplings that could come apart, or not be as universal as the manufacturer claims. Beaverton Chrysler-Dodge (a 5 Star dealership) operates www.moparpartsamerica.com From their website I got the following: Throttle cable, all models, 2.4l, w/o adjustable pedals 04-05 MSRP $38.00 Your price $28.50 Throttle cable, all models, 2.4l, w/adjustable pedals 04-07 MSRP $34.55 Your price $25.88 Throttle cable, all models, 3.3l, 3.8l, w/o adjustable pedals 04-07 MSRP $36.60 Your price $27.44 Throttle cable, all models, 3.3l, 3.8l, w/adjustable pedals 04-07 MSRP $33.95 Your price $25.44 There are other genuine chrysler dealers operating discounted online parts departments, websearch <Dodge parts>. I have personally used the online warranty department of a different brick and mortar & online dealership. I purchased a "Genuine Chrysler" extended warranty online for about 45% less than the local dealerships finance department wanted. That warranty shows up on my vehicle data as such. (Not a 3rd party warranty). great post with the parts prices but wrong year by a decade >>Need to replace the accelerator cable on my 95 Grand Voyager, it is frayed > Throttle cable, all models, 2.4l, w/o adjustable pedals [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > Throttle cable, all models, 3.3l, 3.8l, w/adjustable pedals > 04-07 MSRP $33.95 Your price $25.44 > great post with the parts prices but wrong year by a decade >>>Need to replace the accelerator cable on my 95 Grand Voyager, it is [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] >> Throttle cable, all models, 3.3l, 3.8l, w/adjustable pedals >> 04-07 MSRP $33.95 Your price $25.44 Well those look like great prices but not what I was finding today. Local dealer wants 82.40 plus tax. On the net I found one for 50.68 plus shipping at www.moparpartsamerica.com. They are listing the MSRP at 68.70, which is less than the local dealer, what gives there? So anyways... I went over to the salvage yard after all and they had one in great shape for 5 bucks. Was surprised at how easy it was to pull out. I left my work at 8:02, the yard is just a few miles away. Walked in, chatted for a few minutes, went out to the plymouth van area, pulled out a throttle cable in a 91 3.ol Voyager, wasn't quite an exact match. Walked over to a 94 with a 3.3l (my engine) and pulled one out of there. Exact match. Went in to office, admired an old Chevy Chevelle that was being restored,chatted a few minutes, paid my five bucks, drove back to work... returned at 8:29. Took all of 27 minutes. Sweet. Put in van when I got home from work, works like a charm. Thanks for your replies and help. Really is appreciated. >great post with the parts prices but wrong year by a decade >>>Need to replace the accelerator cable on my 95 Grand Voyager, it is frayed [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] >> Throttle cable, all models, 3.3l, 3.8l, w/adjustable pedals >> 04-07 MSRP $33.95 Your price $25.44 Oops, try this instead: 1995 Plymouth Grand Voyager throttle cable, All Models, 2.5L 92-95 $54.85 $40.80 throttle cable, All Models, 3.0L 92-95 $70.50 $51.97 throttle cable, All Models, 3.3L 92-95 $68.70 $50.68 throttle cable, All Models, 3.8L 94-95 $68.70 $50.68 |
