Gearbox Position Sensor



Gearbox Position Sensor


The gearbox position sensor is a no-contact Hall sensor. The gearbox position sensor is attached to the hydraulic control unit (hydraulic selector unit).

Brief description of components
The 5 inputs of the gearbox position sensor show each selector-lever position. The selector-lever position is transferred to the gearbox position sensor across a Bowden cable and is converted by the gearbox position sensor into a code. This code is transferred to the gearbox control and engine management system.
The gearbox position sensor is connected via a wiring harness and a connector with the mechatronics module and is supplied with a voltage of 8.3-9.3 V.
