Vesta clutch sensor: adjustment, what it’s for, where it’s located

The clutch status signal is transmitted from the clutch switch. This signal allows the electronic engine control unit to process sudden changes in load on the vehicle's engine. If the clutch pedal position sensor is faulty, engine operation may be unstable (speeds fluctuate, jerking when releasing the gas), and error P0830 will appear.

Replacing the clutch pedal position sensor

On Lada Vesta and XRAY cars, removal and installation of the sensor is performed in the same way. It is located in the area of ​​the clutch pedal, next to the steering shaft: Procedure :

  1. Disconnect the block with wires (green) by pressing the latch.
  2. Remove the sensor by turning it counterclockwise 90°.

Installation is carried out in the reverse order, with the brake pedal in its highest position.

Checking the clutch pedal position sensor

Vesta and XRAY got the sensor from Renault (article 253250007R). To check it, you will need a multimeter (in ohmmeter mode). Procedure :

  1. Move the rod lock to the right position using a flat-head screwdriver.
  2. Connect the multimeter probes to sensor terminals No. 3 and No. 4.
  3. When the rod is in the free position, the circuit should be open (the resistance value approaches infinity).
  4. When you press the rod, the circuit should close (the resistance value is close to zero).

We replace the faulty sensor with a new one. Let us remind you that we previously talked about the brake pedal position sensor and the electronic gas pedal.

Replacing the clutch on Lada Vesta

This is not an easy job, no matter what type of transmission is installed. The further operation of the car will depend on the quality of the operations performed, and therefore it is better to entrust this to qualified specialists. The cost of such work is quite high and, depending on the complexity and type of transmission, can vary from 3,500 to 15,000 rubles. Of course, replacing the clutch of a Lada Vesta robot, and especially on a manual one, is quite possible. But this requires a wealth of experience and skills, and in the case of a robotic gearbox, also special software, without which it is impossible to adjust the transmission (adaptation).

Replacing the clutch on an AMT

To change it on a Vesta with a robotic transmission, you will need to completely dismantle the gearbox. The further algorithm of actions is as follows.

  1. If replacing the pressure plate is not included in the plans, then its position relative to the basket should be marked with paint so that there are no problems during assembly.
  2. Using a 8mm wrench, unscrew the bolts securing the basket to the flywheel of the power plant, remove the pressure and friction disc.
  3. Remove the release bearing along with the drive.
  4. All failed elements must be replaced, after which assembly is carried out in the reverse order of disassembly. Also, to install the basket, you will need a mandrel to center the friction disc.

Adjustment will require special equipment and knowledge. You definitely can’t do without specialists here.

Replacing the clutch on a manual transmission

Structurally, this mechanical unit is no different from an automated transmission, with the exception of some nuances. The replacement process is identical, however, in the case of a hydraulic drive, a procedure for bleeding the system from air will be required. This work is performed as follows.

  1. Remove the battery, its shelf, and the dust shield of the power unit.
  2. Unscrew the cap of the master cylinder reservoir and add brake fluid to the maximum level.
  3. Remove the protective plug from the fitting and put a suitable size hose on it (preferably transparent). The other end of the hose is released into a container with working fluid.
  4. Displace the fitting tube tip by lifting the clamp.
  5. Wait until air stops flowing along with the brake fluid through the tube, then release the lock and remove the hose from the fitting.
  6. Add fluid to the reservoir to the optimal level.

Even a beginner can identify clutch faults on a Vesta, be it a manual gearbox or a robotic one, if you follow all the instructions. Another thing is replacing the clutch. Not only a beginner, but also many experienced car enthusiasts cannot cope with this. The fact is that, in addition to the tool, you will need special equipment, as well as a lot of experience.

During the operation of the car, some owners note the appearance of pecks, jerks or twitches when switching to 1st, 2nd or 3rd gear. The cause of this problem may be the clutch pedal travel sensor, which can be adjusted with your own hands in a couple of minutes.

Attention! Depending on the vehicle equipment, the clutch pedal travel sensor may differ. Next we are talking about the Renault 253250007R sensor with a rectangular rod, which has risks)

How to remove the clutch sensor

:

  1. Disconnect the clutch pedal travel sensor connector.
  2. Turn the clutch pedal sensor 1/4 turn counterclockwise.


The rod may only move when adjusting size X. The clutch pedal travel sensor must be replaced if the rod is separated from the sensor or adjustment requires more than three changes to size X.
The procedure for adjusting the clutch sensor

:

Measure the X dimension of the stem protrusion

If dimension X is less than 17mm, adjust it by gently pulling the end of the rod. Dimension X must be between 17 mm (no less) and 18 mm (no more).

Clutch Sensor Installation

done in reverse order. Press the clutch pedal with your hand. Install the sensor on the pedal assembly. Lock the sensor by turning it 1/4 turn clockwise. When returning the clutch pedal to its original position, support it with your hand. Connect the connector.

Note

: The clutch pedal travel sensor is adjusted automatically depending on the pedal position. During automatic adjustment, clicks of transition through fixed positions are heard.

ps On the Lada XRAY the clutch travel sensor is not adjustable.

Let us remind you that if the clutch pedal position sensor is faulty, engine operation may be unstable (speeds fluctuate, jerks when releasing the gas), and error P0830 will appear. Before replacing the sensor, it is recommended to check it with a multimeter.

Dismantling

To remove the clutch pedal travel sensor on the Lada Vesta and X-Ray, first of all, you need to disconnect its plug.

Then turn the component a quarter turn to the left (counterclockwise).

In this case, it is permissible to move the rod, but only if dimension X is adjusted. As for the sensor, it must be changed without fail if the rod was separated from it, or if adjustment required more than 3 changes to dimension X.

With a working engine, an impeccable gearbox, and a new chassis, the car will not go anywhere without a clutch. On the Lada Vesta this is one of the most important components. The task of a mechanical clutch is to connect the internal combustion engine and manual transmission, transmitting torque from the engine to the chassis, and also to separate them when changing gears (if you leave the gearbox input shaft rotating through the internal combustion engine, the gears will inevitably be damaged).

The Lada Vesta clutch on a manual transmission (mechanical) consists of one disc, engagement is made mechanically (dry, permanently closed type), the drive is hydraulic. The latter means that the unit is driven by fluid pressure and is adjusted manually (by foot) by the driver. In addition, the fluid system acts as a pedal booster. After all, simply pressing with your foot is not enough to set in motion the structure, which engages with the shaft while rotating several thousand revolutions. Therefore, there is no need for hydraulics on an AMT. Read the article to the end and you will learn the intricacies of this knot! Find out the problems that often happen and the clutch drive fails: the release bearing or the basket as a whole is broken. It's time to change, or adjust enough, precise adjustment is important for good operation of the unit. Replacement at the dealer at 9 TO.

Total

If it clicks when releasing or tightening the Lada Vesta clutch in the cabin, the reason may be the limit switch, pedal holder or hydraulic cylinder design. More serious knocking noises in the engine compartment - less often the dealer will refuse to find out the cause, as this may indicate a malfunction of important parts: springs, release bearings, working cylinder.

As a temporary solution to the problem of heavy knocking, drivers use the accelerator. You need to adapt to this: when the clutch is released, the driver gives more gas and the knock disappears. Typically, such actions indicate defects in the media release manual.

Lada Vesta became the new flagship of AvtoVAZ in 2015. The appearance, interior and equipment are radically different from all previous models. For the first time in many years, the new product was able to compete with the most popular foreign cars from Europe and Asia. In addition, Vesta is not inferior to them in quality and in some cases can give them an advantage.

Noise when disengaging or engaging the clutch

A noise similar to rustling, grinding, a slight hum, or howling appears when the unit is turned off. When turned on, it disappears. With almost one hundred percent probability we can say that the release bearing has worn out. Replacing it does not require removing the entire component. However, its untimely replacement leads to failure of the entire mechanism. A squelching, whistling sound when pressing the pedal is associated with wear of the main or working cylinders. There is pressure, the broken part does not hold it - the liquid breaks through further, making noise. The noise in the box disappears only when the clutch is disengaged

The second type of sound is constant, disappears only when the gear is disengaged, and is located in the area of ​​the gearbox. The nature of the “tinkling” of Lada Vesta is a weakened connection between the three main nodes.

A worn driven circle loses its volume and begins to dangle inside the housing. Worn dampers are not able to press the circle tightly. The gearbox is not tightly connected to the engine. Replacing the clutch on a manual gearbox

The procedure is very complicated. The main difficulty is not even that the gearbox needs to be completely removed, but that during assembly it needs to be centered in weight with the flywheel. Repairs can be done with your own hands. But if you do not have the proper experience, saving is not worth it, because we are talking about direct contact with the most important “organs” of the Lada. In general, the process looks like this:

  • We de-energize Vesta, remove all attachments that block access to the gearbox mounting bolts (air filter, pipes);
  • To prevent the loose internal combustion engine of the Lada from falling, we will hold it with a small diamond-shaped, barrel jack;
  • We unscrew the power fasteners so as not to drain the oil, dismantle the box assembly with drives;
  • We loosen one by one, then unscrew the fastening elements of the engaging mechanism housing (the bolts here are strong, but small in diameter, you need a good 8mm wrench). We remove the part and find the defect;
  • We install the new product, adjust the position of the driven circle inside with a special tool;
  • We change the release bearing in the box housing;
  • Smoothly, without tilting, the input shaft of the gearbox hits the flywheel splines;
  • We check the operation of the drive.

Not all operations are described here. For example, in order to remove the gearbox with drives, it is necessary to dismantle the suspension arms and so on.

Analogs

The manufacturers themselves recommend 826818 VALEO 2180 for Vesta. Owners note that when using the model, the pedal becomes noticeably softer and the car starts easily. The note applies to the original set; fakes are often found. The spare part costs four thousand eight hundred rubles.

The original part of the Lada Vesta is not suitable for the 21129 engine in terms of power; it is designed for lower speeds, for example, such as 2112. For 106 horsepower and above, TS-00001321 would not be a bad match. Price – five thousand six hundred rubles.

How to keep AMT Lada Vesta in traffic jams

A little background:

  • ESP system test Lada Vesta
  • Manual mode AMT Lada Vesta
  • Lada Vesta traction control test

Hello everyone! Dmitry Flegantov is with you!

As you know, I own a LADA Vesta SV Cross 2022 with a 1.8 liter engine and an AMT 2.0 robot.

There are many different rumors about the AMT robot on the new Ladas, but all these rumors became irrelevant with the release of the second version of the AMT and the robot became almost ideal. But no one has canceled the basic rules for proper operation of a car, without which the installed additional accessories of the Lada Vesta become just decoration.

Today I will tell you how to maintain the clutch of an AMT robot during daily driving around the city, especially with constant traffic jams and starts from traffic lights. Let me remind you that the AMT robotic transmission is an ordinary manual gearbox with a conventional clutch, but the clutch is released and gears are changed by automatic actuators according to the algorithms embedded in the control unit. As a result, you get two pedals, like on a classic automatic, and, accordingly, the same comfortable ride.

So, what should you do to ensure that by 70,000 km, or even earlier, your clutch does not say “quack”, but reaches the required 150,000 km? Yes, everything is simple, you just need not to tear it and not slip (this, by the way, also applies to ordinary “mechanics”). And, what does it mean in relation to a robot “not to tear” and not to “slip”, you ask, does it work automatically? And, this means that there is no need to allow sudden acceleration from a standstill and prolonged movement at a very low speed. All the operating principles that you apply to a manual transmission are absolutely relevant here. Although the robot is an automatic machine, it obeys your commands; although it minimizes the wear of elements by correcting your mistakes, it also has borderline modes, constant movement in which will lead to premature repairs. It’s like if you constantly turn the motor to the cut-off point, it seems to be designed for such loads, but these loads should be short-term, not constant!

The first thing you must learn is that you do not need to press the gas pedal sharply when the car is stationary and the clutch is disengaged, the start should be smooth, and you can accelerate when the clutch is fully engaged. I assure you that this way you will start even faster and leave the traffic behind than when you sharply press the trigger, since the clutch is engaged in a split second, but you do not force it to jerk (the robot tries to smooth out this jerk and allows short-term slippage, hence the increased wear).

The second rule, which will protect the clutch from wear when crawling in a traffic jam, is that you do not need to move at a very low speed, which is less than in the “creeping” mode (the creeping mode is implemented in AMT only with the 1.8 engine). When moving so slowly that the engine does not stall, the robot allows the clutch to slip just as accurately as a driver does in a car with a manual transmission; naturally, this causes wear and heating of the discs. Therefore, there is no need to crawl close to the vehicle in front, wait a little, increase the distance and start moving with the clutch fully engaged.

That's all! By following these simple rules, you will significantly extend the life of the clutch of your Lada Vesta SV Cross, and any other car, both equipped with a manual gearbox and a robotic transmission!

For illustration, watch the video where I show all this clearly:

I hope this was helpful!

Bleeding the hydraulic drive

Required tools and consumables:

  • capacity 0.5 l;
  • thin hose;
  • bottle of brake fluid;
  • slotted screwdriver.

The procedure is as follows:

  1. Fill the hydraulic reservoir with brake fluid to the Max mark.
  2. Remove the protective cap from the bleeder fitting.
  3. Place the hose onto the fitting. Place the second end of the hose into a jar filled 1-2 cm with brake fluid so that it is immersed in the liquid.
  4. Use a slotted screwdriver to pry the spring clamp of the supply tube and lift it 1 click.
  5. Pull the tube tip back 1 click.
  6. Wait until air bubbles stop coming out of the tube. To speed up the process, you can press the clutch pedal several times.
  7. Return the tube tip and spring clip to their original state.
  8. Install the engine splash guard, battery and battery shelf.

Clutch pedal position sensor VAZ

On the latest models of VAZ cars equipped with an electronic gas pedal, a clutch pedal position sensor is installed. Let's consider why it is needed, the principle of operation and possible malfunctions.

Where is the clutch sensor installed?

The clutch pedal position sensor on VAZ cars is installed directly on the clutch pedal bracket; it can be seen by looking under the steering column.

The clutch pedal position sensor is one of the elements of the engine management system with an electronic gas pedal. This sensor provides a more flexible control scheme for engine modes. It simplifies the process of starting to move, eliminates “drops” and jerks of the car when changing gears in the manual transmission, and also allows for a reduction in fuel consumption.

By providing information to the engine controller about the moment the clutch is engaged and disengaged, the clutch pedal position sensor allows it to reduce or increase engine speed at the right moment, as well as adjust the ignition timing.

The clutch pedal position sensor is an ordinary limit switch with two positions - “on” and “off”.

Its normal position is open, that is, it turns on only when the clutch pedal is pressed.

The following symptoms may indicate a malfunction of the clutch pedal position sensor:

  • car "pecks" when changing gears
  • a sharp increase or decrease in engine speed when the clutch is disengaged

Also, if a malfunction occurs in the clutch pedal position sensor, error 0830 “Clutch pedal sensor error” is recorded in the engine controller and the “Check Engine” light in the instrument cluster turns on.

Error 0830 is detected if the engine controller does not receive a signal from the clutch sensor:

  • within 2 seconds after changing gear while driving
  • after four gear changes at speeds above 10 km/h and engine speeds above 1000 rpm

The main reasons for error 0830:

  • malfunction of the clutch sensor itself
  • short circuit or open circuit
  • Incorrect clutch pedal height

We encountered error 0830 while preparing the material “How to get there without a clutch?” We recorded video instructions on how to change gears without a clutch. After several gear changes without disengaging the clutch, the “Check Engine” light came on on the panel, which went out only after several dozen gear changes in normal mode.

Clutch sensor price

On many VAZ cars with an electronic gas pedal there is a connector for this sensor, but there is no sensor itself. It is not clear whether they forget to install it at the factory, or whether careless dealers remove it. The second option is also quite possible, since this sensor is still in great short supply. It costs an average of 350 rubles, but finding it on sale is almost impossible.

There are two types of clutch pedal position sensors for VAZ cars:

21214-3720020-02 for Lada 4×4 cars with electronic gas pedal

1118-3720015 for Kalina, Grant and Priora cars with an electronic gas pedal.

They are not interchangeable with each other.

It would seem like a simple sensor, but how much it can complicate the life of an ordinary car owner.

The widespread computerization of cars, adapting to consumer demand, non-stop pushes the best engineering minds to new discoveries. Every year, driving cars becomes more comfortable and safer - and all this thanks to all these innovations. Today we will talk about such an element as the clutch pedal sensor. There are two versions of the clutch sensor, which are not fundamentally different from each other - one is used in a robotic gearbox, the other in a manual one. What does the clutch sensor do? The answer is quite simple - the electronics send a signal to the control unit so that it, in turn, synchronizes the rotation of the engine crankshaft and the gearbox input shaft.

Topic: Vesta clutch adjustment

Hello to everyone who will come.

I’ve driven the West for 1000 km and I can’t get used to the clutch, just when I’m moving off, well, the clutch grabs at the very end, so you still have to release it very slowly and for a long time in order to start normally and not stall the engine, and keep the speed at least 1500-1700. Is it so hard for everyone to start moving and is it possible to adjust the clutch? Before this I had a Priora, even if I let go of the clutch more frequently, I still pulled away confidently, but in the West the engine stalled.

Re: Vesta clutch adjustment

I got into the Vesta in the cabin and immediately took off and drove off. You probably don’t have enough experience; you need to feel when the engine is choke. And don’t forget that Vesta, unlike Priora, has a hydraulic clutch, not a cable.

I went for a test drive, and somehow I didn’t feel any grip, so I sat down and drove off. And when I bought the Westa, I started driving, and that’s where it all began. Maybe during the test drive the clutch was adjusted a little better and grabbed in the middle, but on mine it was at the very end.

What answer are you expecting? The clutch is adjustable only on a cable drive. Vesta has a hydraulic drive. What can be adjusted there?

Wait, what seems so strange and impossible to you? I don’t know, maybe specifically on Vesta they made the unit unregulated, but in general the free play is adjusted in the same way on hydraulically driven systems. There is no fundamental difference.

Front-wheel drive VAZs have had a backlash-free clutch for 30 years (or whatever has passed since the release of the first eight). If its drive is cable, then adjustment is made with nuts on the cable; if the drive is hydraulic, then there is no adjustment. In general, there is no need to confuse the hydraulic clutch drive on the classics, where the clutch (free play) was adjusted between the nut on the pusher and the fork.

Re: Vesta clutch adjustment

It’s not just the classics that have used and still use a hydraulic drive with adjustable pedal travel. If you know for sure that this is not provided for on Vesta, then that means it is. But this is not because “it can be adjusted on a hydraulic drive.”

Re: Vesta clutch adjustment

Injection at 1.5 thousand?

I feel the problem may be in the check valve, which, when the brake is suddenly released, does not allow the brake fluid to quickly flow back.

Re: Vesta clutch adjustment

I drove the West for 1000 km and can’t get used to the clutch

I've already driven 16 thousand in a year and a half and I can't get used to the clutch. Before that I had Kalina, and although its clutch is stiffer, I got used to its clutch in a couple of weeks. Moreover, in Kalina I could shift in any gear without a transmission jerk. On Vesta it works normally only at 3rd and higher.

Turn off the engine and press the clutch pedal two or three times.There should be no jamming, creaking, knocking or any other extraneous sounds in the drive mechanism.
Start the engine.If at the same time a howling sound is heard from the manual transmission, which becomes more distinct when the pedal is depressed, it means that the release bearing is badly worn and needs to be replaced.
With the engine running, depress the clutch pedal and engage any speed.At the same time, there should be no creaks, knocks, or crunches. Otherwise, extraneous sounds indicate incomplete disengagement of the clutch. This usually indicates airing of the system. If there is no air, it means there is a malfunction of the master or working cylinder, or a broken diaphragm spring.
With the engine running, turn on the speed and smoothly release the clutch pedal.When the car starts to move, there should be no jerking or extraneous noise. Otherwise, the cause of failure may be damage to the discs, damper, or oil getting on the discs.
While driving, you need to press the accelerator pedal sharply.If the revolutions have increased, but the car has barely accelerated, it means the clutch is slipping. It is easy to understand about slipping by the characteristic burning smell from the friction linings of the disc in the cabin. The problem is solved by replacing the disks.

How to drag

You will need: buy a set of leather braiding for the gearshift knob (price about 650 rubles), or make a pattern yourself (glue the handle with masking tape, cut it and transfer the dimensions to the leather).

  1. Mark the gearshift knob in the center.
  2. Apply glue to the handle and pieces of leather, wait 5-15 minutes.
  3. Place the leather on the handle, smooth it out, and wait for it to dry.
  1. Sew the overlays using the threads from the kit.

Instructions, recommendations from experts

Often Lada Vesta owners complain about knocking and jamming when moving from first to second gear. Shocks are less common when turning on third speed. The reason for this behavior of the transmission is wear of the clutch sensor, violation of the gaps, and an increase in the free play of the pedal.

It is quite possible to adjust the unit with your own hands; there is no need to go to a workshop. The exception is the current factory warranty for the technical product.

Design and principle of operation of the crankshaft sensor

In order for the sensor to transmit a signal through a wire to the ECU microcontroller, the following principle is used:

  1. two flywheel teeth were deliberately omitted;
  2. when entire flywheel teeth rotate near the DPKV, they distort the magnetic field arising in the device coil;
  3. when a section of the crown with a missing tooth passes near the sensor, the interference disappears;
  4. the device transmits a signal about this to the computer, and the computer determines the exact position of the pistons in each cylinder.

The ECU software allows you to calculate the position of the pistons in cylinders I and IV when a signal is received and the direction of shaft rotation. This is enough to correctly generate signals to the fuel supply and ignition sensor.

Optic

Structurally, this sensor is made of an LED and a receiver. The signal appears in the receiver when it passes through a section of the flywheel with ground teeth, since at this moment the LED beam is not blocked by the remaining intact teeth.

These simple steps do not allow you to use the device for any additional operations. If a breakdown occurs (ignition desynchronization), the DPKV is replaced along with the wire.

Hall Sensor

Working on the principle of potential difference in the cross section of metals (Hall effect), the crankshaft position sensor has the additional function of distributing ignition into the combustion chambers of the cylinders.

A fairly simple operating principle of the sensor is based on the generation of voltage due to a change in the magnetic field. Without a flywheel with two ground teeth, this device will not work.

Inductive

Unlike previous modifications, the magnetic crankshaft position sensor operates on the basis of electromagnetic induction:

  • a field is constantly generated around the device;
  • voltage for the signal to the microprocessor occurs only when passing through a section of the flywheel rim with missing teeth.

Shaft position monitoring is not the only option of this device; in addition, it serves as a shaft speed sensor.

Connecting cruise control keys

To connect the cruise control keys, follow the procedure.

Connecting the buttons on the steering wheel begins with completing the wired cruise control system with the radio wiring. Connect the wiring to the multimedia device into the blue connector. To avoid mistakes, study the wiring diagrams.

If a new radio was installed during operation, you will need an adapter for the specific type of audio system.

- switching music files;

- Instant volume mute.

Cost of steering wheel with buttons

The price for the model with buttons depends on the store. Most Lada Vesta car owners purchase products with keys in virtual stores. The order is placed for article number 8450006832. The cost ranges from 5000 to 7000. If the vehicle owner needs an airbag, the price increases by another 1000-15000. For leather covering you will have to pay another 2000-2500 rubles.

To save money, you can use an overlay with keys on a standard steering wheel. This option is more difficult to connect and difficult to find, since it is not popular.
