The invention relates to a pedal pad force sensing assembly having a force sensing capacitor. The force sensing capacitor includes an upper plate which is overmolded into the pad body and a lower plate supported on the pedal arm. A sensing module includes an electronic circuitry to determine change of capacitance when pressure is placed on an upper surface of the pad. The sensing assembly may advantageously include a reference capacitor which is mounted near the sensing capacitor but not subjected to pressure.
