Video tutorial

Before proceeding with the disassembly of the accelerator pedal, disconnect the connector attached to the potentiometer instead of cutting the wire as shown in the video (this is likely a salvaged vehicle). The accelerator pedal is attached to a plate beneath the white plastic through a snap tab: press on the tab to allow the pedal support to disengage from the plate by sliding sideways; once the pedal with support is freed, you can complete the disassembly of the lower plate secured to the floor with pins.
