How do you remove the throttle position sensor that is under the drivers side battery?

Battery Tray Mounted Sensor :
The APPS is serviced (replaced) as one assembly including the sensor, plastic housing and cable. The APPS assembly is located under the left (drivers side) vehicle battery tray (APPS LOCATION (OFF ENGINE MOUNTING)). Access to APPS is gained from over top of left / front tire.

Disconnect negative battery cable at battery.
Disconnect APPS cable at accelerator pedal. Refer to Accelerator Pedal Removal / Installation.
Remove wheel house liner at left / front wheel. Refer to Body.
Gain access to APPS electrical connector by opening swing-down door (APPS REMOVE / INSTALL (OFF ENGINE MOUNTING)). Disconnect electrical connector.
Remove 3 mounting bolts (APPS REMOVE / INSTALL (OFF ENGINE MOUNTING)).
Remove APPS assembly from battery tray.
If cable is to be separated at APPS, unsnap cable clip from ball socket (APPS CABLE (OFF ENGINE MOUNTING)). Release cable from plastic housing by pressing on small cable release tab (APPS REMOVE / INSTALL (OFF ENGINE MOUNTING)).
