ABSTRACT:
A position indicator which can be coupled to a gas pedal has a housing with a substantially cylindrical hollow inner space. A rotary resistor is arranged fixed against turning in a mount which can be fastened to the housing. A setting shaft for the rotary resistor is connected with a drive shaft of the position indicator so as to be actuated by a turning movement of the drive shaft. The drive shaft and the setting shaft are turned back by at least one restoring spring when the gas pedal is released. A member connected with the drive shaft serves to accommodate the restoring springs and for the arrangement or development of an actuating member for a kick-down switch. In order to be able to adapt the position indicator in diversified fashion to desired restoration characteristics and required characteristic curves of the rotary resistor and to facilitate the final mounting of the position indicator, the latter consists of a first mechanical assembly and a second electrical assembly which can be inserted one after the other into the housing. Upon the insertion of the second electrical assembly the two assemblies are axially aligned with each other. The setting shaft and the member connected with the drive shaft can thus automatically couple with each other.
