Neutral Safety Switch: Description and Operation





Description

Neutral Gear Switch is installed in M/T vehicle (ISG system or Diesel engines) and senses driver's intension to shift gear.
When vehicle starts to move after standing for a while and vehicle speed does not reach to 2Km/h, fuel quantity mapping value at neutral gear is adopted to vehicle.
Moreover, this phenomenon is more serious when vehicle requires high power generation such as the situation when vehicle is on the slope.
To cope with this problem, neutral gear switch which senses driver's intension of starting to move is applied. And fuel injection quantity mapping value suitable for 1st gear is adopted immediately.
