Abstract
A rotation sensor for a vehicular pedal includes a sensor housing, a sensor circuit secured to the sensor housing, and a target rotatable with the pedal about an axis. The target has an assembly position proximal to the sensor circuit such that the sensor circuit detects a rotational position of the target and the pedal through a range of positions. A key is selectively engageable with one or both of the target and the sensor housing. The rotation sensor has a first configuration in which the key is retained by the target and disengaged from the sensor housing. The rotation sensor has a second configuration in which the key engages both the target and the sensor housing to impede movement of the target relative to the sensor housing. The rotation sensor has a third configuration in which the key is disengaged from the target and retained by the sensor housing.
