Turn off ignition
If your vehicle has keyless entry, keep the key fob at least 35 ft. (10m) away from the vehicle (the signal can give power for your system). Wait 5 minutes to give everything time to power down.
Locate your accelerator pedal assembly plug connection.
Remove the plug on your gas pedal.
Plug male and female connectors into their coordinating plugs on the gas pedal. Make sure the both plugs “click” into place.
Make sure cables are tucked in place so they do not effect or endanger your driving.
Route the Pedal Commander to where you can access easily.
Use the included alcohol wipe to clean the area where you would like to mount the bracket.
Apply velcro to the bracket and cleaned area.
Put the Pedal Commander into bracket and you’re done!

If you unplug the gas pedal too soon, you will receive a check engine light because the vehicles computer still has power and has detected a sensor unplugged.
If you are visiting a dealership[ for routine maintenance, you do not need to unplug Pedal Commander, just turn off and tuck it out of sight.
If you are visiting a dealership for an issue or warranty repair, REMOVE THE PEDAL COMMANDER FIRST. Pedal Commander will not leave a “flag”or a digital footprint on your computer so they will never know it was installed. But when any vehicles has a problem, a dealership will search for aftermarket parts to avoid paying for any warranty work.
