ABSTRACT:
A sensor system is provided for a control device of an automatically shiftable transmission and/or with automatic manually shifted transmission. The system includes a shift selector lever movable in at least one shift gate for setting at least the positions Forward, Neutral, reverse, and park (stop). A position for manual shifting may also be provided for access to at least one position for the manual upshifting and/or a position for the manual downshifting of the gears of the transmission. A first sensor element is associated with each possible position. A first signal transmitter is arranged at the shift selector lever to detect the position of the shift selector lever. The first sensor elements and/or the first signal transmitter are arranged to detect a positioning of the shift selector lever at least between the positions Forward, Neutral and/or Reverse.
