GF27.60-P-2000SK Function of Gear Shift



GF27.60-P-2000SK Function of gear shift
- Transmission 722.6
- except CODE (428) Steering wheel shift buttons


On the automatic transmission 722.6 the electro hydraulic control unit converts the electrical signals coming from the electronic transmission control (ETC) into hydraulic signals

Faults occurring in the ETC control unit (N15/3) are handled by the limp-home system. This is designed to allow the driver to reach a service outlet even under extreme conditions.

Selector lever position "P", "R", "N" and "D" are passed on mechanically to the range selector lever at the transmission end by means of a shift rod in parallel to conveying via the Controller Area Network bus class C (engine compartment) (CAN-C). Via touching or holding the selector lever towards "+" or "-" the shift range is preselected and displayed in the instrument cluster (A1) until an upshift of the transmission is possible.
