Dorman Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor 699-120 — Direct-Fit, No Reprogramming, OE-Style

The Dorman 699-120 accelerator pedal position sensor is a direct-fit replacement that restores correct throttle signal and pedal response without reprogramming.

If your vehicle is showing hesitation, inconsistent throttle input, or a check-engine light related to the accelerator pedal sensor, the Dorman 699-120 offers an affordable, tested replacement. Engineered in North America from durable materials, this sensor is built to match the fit and function of the original equipment so you can swap it in quickly. Before ordering, verify fitment with your vehicle year and trim using the garage tool — this part is compatible with a wide range of Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep models from mid-2000s through 2020.

How does this sensor affect throttle response?

The accelerator pedal position sensor sends the pedal position signal to the engine control module so throttle commands are accurately translated. A faulty sensor can cause delayed or erratic acceleration and trigger diagnostic trouble codes. Replacing a failed sensor with a correctly matched unit helps restore smooth, predictable throttle control.

• Converts pedal movement into electrical signal for the ECU
• Prevents miscommunication that leads to hesitation or surging
• Reduces false fault codes tied to pedal position

Is installation complicated — will I need programming?

Installation is straightforward and designed to be plug-and-play for most applications. The Dorman 699-120 is manufactured to the same mounting points and connector type as the original, so no special tools or module reprogramming are typically required. Always follow vehicle-specific instructions and clear any stored codes after replacement.

• Direct-match connectors and mounting for simple swap-out
• No dealer-level programming expected in most cases
• Basic hand tools and a scan tool for code clearance recommended

What vehicles does this part fit and how do I confirm compatibility?

This sensor covers many Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep models across multiple years — including Chrysler 200, Cirrus, Sebring; Dodge Avenger, Caliber, Journey; and Jeep Compass, Patriot. Fitment can vary by engine and trim, so use the store’s garage tool and check the Confirmed Fit indicator to ensure it matches your specific VIN or trim level.

• Compatible families include Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep models from 2007–2020
• Enter vehicle into the garage tool to verify fitment details
• Hover over any fitment notes for additional verification when needed

What quality checks and lifespan can I expect?

Dorman designs replacement components to meet or exceed the durability of the original parts through material selection and testing. The 699-120 sensor is subjected to performance and longevity tests to ensure reliable operation over time. Proper installation and environmental exposure will influence actual service life.

• Engineered and tested in North America for consistent quality
• Built from materials chosen for long-term durability
• Extensive testing reduces risk of early failure after installation

Who is this for: The Dorman 699-120 is aimed at vehicle owners, independent mechanics and DIY enthusiasts who need a reliable, cost-effective replacement accelerator pedal position sensor for affected Chrysler, Dodge or Jeep models. If your car shows pedal-related fault codes, inconsistent throttle behavior, or you’re restoring proper acceleration response, this plug-and-play sensor restores correct pedal-to-ECU communication without the premium cost of OE parts.
