The '95 century is not "drive by wire" it has mechanical linkage. Must have come off or broken. I'll see if I can find a pic

One end of the cable is on the pedal or a bar moved by the pedal. The other end is on a plastic cam attached to the throttle body. Open the hood and see if the cable is still attached. It may have come loose if it didn't break.
