The electrohydraulic controller unit converts electrical signals going out from the fully integrated transmission control (VGS) into hydraulic signals. Faults occurring in the VGS are covered by the limp-home mode. The limp-home strategy is designed so that the driver can still reach a Mercedes-Benz service operation under extreme conditions.

The selector lever positions "P", "R", "N" and "D" are transferred by the electronic selector lever module control unit (N15/5) to the Controller Area Network bus Class C (engine compartment) (CAN- C) and - in parallel - mechanically forwarded with the aid of shift rod to the selection range sensor (VGS) (Y3/8s1). By touching or holding the selector lever in the "+" and "-" direction the shift range, up to which the upshifting of the transmission is possible, is programmed and displayed in the instrument cluster (A1).
