Transmission Position Sensor/Switch: Testing and Inspection





GEAR SELECTOR LEVER SWITCH





Check the gear selector lever switch by means of the universal adapter with the control unit connected and ignition switched "ON". Measure between Pin 1 and the specified pins. "0" corresponds to approx. 0 V, "1" corresponds to approx. 12 V.





If a voltage is not measured in any position, check positive supply to the selector lever switch. If activation is defective, remove selector lever switch and check in accordance with table, replace if necessary. (Pin + referred to Pin L1 ...L4; "1" corresponds to approx. 0 Ohms and "0" to more than 10 kOhms). If OK, replace wires or plug connections.

The reversing light is switched via the pins RF and RF+ in the selector lever position R.
