ABSTRACT:
A method for determining a position of a range indication device for an automatic transmission is provided. The method includes: receiving N bits corresponding to a state of N circuits, respectively, wherein the N bits are related to a position of a range indication device and wherein the position includes transmission range states and transitional states between the transmission range states; associating the bit patterns with at least one of the transitional states and the transmission range states; defining the bit pattern having N bits equal to a first state as the transitional state, and defining the bit pattern having N/2 bits equal to one of the first state and a second state as the transmission range state.
