Does the value change?

Yes - Verification

No - Checking the component and wiring

-------------------------------------------------

Checking the component and wiring
Check control module connector terminals (#G12, G21, G23) and clutch pedal sensor connectors. Check for contact resistance and oxidation. Check for damage carefully.
Check the clutch pedal sensor resistance.
Check the signal cable between central electronic module (CEM) terminal #G21 (#21) and clutch pedal sensor connector terminal #3. Check for an open-circuit. Check for a short-circuit to ground.
Check the signal cable between central electronic module (CEM) terminal #G23 (#23) and clutch pedal sensor connector terminal #2. Check for an open-circuit. Check for a short-circuit to ground.
Check the signal cable between central electronic module (CEM) terminal #G12 (#12) and clutch pedal sensor connector terminal #1. Check for an open-circuit. Check for a short-circuit to ground.
