Hey yall.
So this new flyby wire pedal sucks, what sucks worse is the touchyness of the newer 06.5+ firewall mounted accel pedal in the w900 and t800s.
The pedal is so jerky and can be so inconstant it almost makes me wanna park my rig and buy something else.
It's a 2014 w900L
Isx15
I'm looking into converting the pedal back to floor mount. I have heard on some groups guys have done it and are much happier with it.
I'm wondering if anyone has done it in this forum.
And if I acquire a factory floor mount pedal, how difficult would it be to mount. Or if the factory holes are still in the newer kw floor pan.
Any help would be very appreciated.

It may not be the pedal that’s your problem.
There are two different throttle settings in your ecm. One is much more sensitive than the other.
It’s been a few years since I researched this on my own truck, but you should be able to figure it out with a little research of your own. -
Already changed the accel governor.
Throttle didn't know light pedal from WOT.
But I'm guessing it has to do with my ecm tuning.
My engine is running a pre emission calibration. If that makes any sense -
Small bungee strap helps.

I recently did mine as well. However I couldn't figure out the new pinning needed for the new TPS. So I reused the old one from the hanging pedal.

I have a 2016 T800 I want to change to a floor mount, does it have to be calibrated?
