1K0959613CREJ Audi POTENTIOME

A potentiometer is basically a variable resistor. Think of it like a dimmer switch for your lights at home – it controls the flow of electricity. It takes an input – usually mechanical, like you moving a switch or lever – and translates that into a changing electrical signal. It’s measuring position or angle, then giving that information as an electrical value. These things are used all over. A really common place is in your throttle position sensor. When you press the gas pedal, a potentiometer inside measures how far you’re pressing and tells the engine computer how much fuel to deliver. They're also found in things like window regulators, sunroof controls, even some HVAC controls. Basically, whenever something needs to report its position electrically, a potentiometer is often how it’s done. It tells the car’s computer what’s happening with a switch or lever. A failing potentiometer can cause all sorts of weird issues. If it’s in the throttle position sensor, you might get erratic acceleration, stalling, or a check engine light. With window or sunroof controls, you’ll notice if it starts working intermittently, or maybe the window only goes up or down part way. It’s often a fairly inexpensive part, and replacing a bad one can save you from much bigger headaches down the road. If things aren’t responding correctly, or you’re getting sensor errors, that’s a good sign it might be the problem. You can find a lot of different potentiometers on sites like Fixparts Online, but getting the right one for your specific vehicle is key.
