Just wondering, where is this sensor located at.

It's attached to the actual pedal with a plug in and a couple of bolts. the part i saw was $528.00 (us) and was the whole setup with pedal and everything. my Volvo popped generic code p2127 and displayed engine system service required light. car went into "safe mode"/ " limp mode" and limited my speed and rpm to 2-3k and basically 60mph. First real issue in the first 100k miles other than the alternator @ 73k miles. This has been an intermittent issue occurring twice and returning back to normal after parking and letting it sit over night. Still, there is something wrong.

Just a thought, this sounds like it might be the failing ETM that may be covered under extended (10 year / 200,000 miles) warranty, see the ETM forum here... https://www.matthewsvolvosite.com/forums ... php?t=5694

the pedal position sensor is attached to the brake booster in the engine bay.

Replacing this sensor does not require software download by the dealer

hey did replacing your sensor make the issue go away? I'm having the same problem. A shop changed my serp belt ac comp and pulleys, but no my s60t 02 has no real pickup and will slowly crawl to 60+ mph but i have no pickup. Driving around town its ok.

are there any directions or walk-throughs for replacing the pedal position sensor on my s60T '02?

For this issue mine wound up being the pedal sensor that the dealer nailed down and fixed.
I finally have pickup. Weird that it went after my belt snapped and I had it replaced along w. the ac comp/pulley....
