GenIV Throttle
 

I am trying to come up with pedal/ wiring/ module that will work with GenIV 58x system.My 5.3 LY5 from 2008 Avalanche DBW Has anybody done this before?

I know we talked in PM, but you might want to check out Hart_Rod's build.. I know he was one of the earlier GenIV swaps on the site here.

The guy that reworked my harness told me I could use a 2008 Impala pedal so I did, I haven't finished my swap but it did plug right in. The Corvette pedal is too pricy for me.

There isn't an interface module for the pedal in a Gen IV system, so you just need the pedal its self. One of the few things about a Gen IV system that is actually simpler than Gen III is that all the pedals have the same internal sensors. I used a 2007 Monte Carlo SS pedal because it was cheaper than the Corvette pedal and a lot better looking than the giant truck pedal. The Gen IV pedals have a 6 pin plug and two wires need to be swapped in the harness to switch between Gen IV car and truck pedal styles (pins "D" and "F").

Thanks for responding. When using the Monty Carlo pedal is there a jumper harness that is needed if so where doe's it go. I am using my OEM harness the only harness connection left is a 24 pin with a latch i have assumed it was for a module.Any help is much appreciated

I've only used the harness from a truck application And it has a sub harness for the pedal. It connects to the accelerator pedal and the brake switch (among a few other things) and passes through the firewall where it plugs into the engine harness.

If you are trying to go on the cheap these pedals are starting to show up quite a bit in the junk yards. A Pic-A-Part type yard should have them in there.

Im using one out of a 2009 van, its a slim good looking pedal but might have to modify the angle of the actual pedal position, it curves a lil too much for my taste.

So now i am seeing this clearly. I need the sub harness for my truck harness and i don't need the module. Thanks
