A faulty transmission control module (TCM) most often causes limp mode with the gearbox stuck in one gear, harsh jolts when you select D or R, erratic gear changes, flashing PRND letters and a gearbox or engine warning light. However, the same symptoms are often caused by a low gearbox oil level, a weak battery, a poor earth or a faulty sensor. To test a transmission control module, start by checking the battery and reading the fault codes with a diagnostic tool that can talk to the gearbox control unit, then check the power supply, the connector, the oil and the live data. Below we explain the symptoms, the diagnostic steps and what the most common fault codes mean.

Accelerator pedal 7E1723503C – does it fit your VW Transporter?
This is a used, working accelerator pedal with a pedal position sensor (potentiometer) made by Hella, VW number 7E1723503C, Hella number 6PV00849642. A pedal with this number was fitted to the Volkswagen Transporter T5 and T6. Before buying, compare the number with the label on the pedal housing.
Accelerator Pedal with Potentiometer VW Transporter T5, T6 Hella 7E1723503C
An electronic accelerator pedal has no throttle cable – its housing contains a pedal position sensor (potentiometer) that tells the engine control unit how far the driver is pressing the pedal. Based on this signal, the control unit sets the fuel quantity and engine power. This Hella pedal was fitted to the Volkswagen Transporter T5 and T6.
Part numbers to compare
- 7E1723503C – Volkswagen part number, on the label: 7E1 723 503 C
- 6PV00849642 – Hella manufacturer number, on the label: 6PV 008 496-42
You will find the numbers on the yellow label on the sensor housing. The safest way to choose is by the full VW number including the final letter – pedals with other numbers were also fitted to the same models.
Symptoms of a faulty accelerator pedal
When the sensor in the accelerator pedal starts to fail, the most common symptoms are:
- no response or a delayed engine response when you press the pedal,
- the engine going into limp mode with the EPC warning light on,
- uneven engine speed or jerking with the pedal held steady,
- pedal position sensor fault codes stored in the control unit.
Before replacing it, read the fault codes with a diagnostic tool and check the pedal connector and wiring – a damaged harness or corroded contacts cause similar symptoms. After fitting, clear the fault codes stored in the engine control unit.
