Fuel Injection Pump Lever (FIPL) Sensor

The FIPL sensor is used on 7.3L vehicles with E40D automatic transmission. FIPL is mounted to fuel injection pump and actuated by throttle lever. To assist in transmission shift and torque capacity, FIPL transmits a signal proportional to level of fuel delivery to the Transmission Electronic Control Assembly (TECA).

If FIPL circuit fails, TECA causes transmission to operate under high capacity mode (harsh shifting). This mode will prevent transmission damage.
