The rotary position switch detects the position of the transmission selector shaft. The switch is supplied as part of a new transmission assembly, mounted on the transmission body. The switch is used to indicate to the TCM the six positions of the shaft: Park, Reverse, Neutral, Drive, Third and Second. The switch provides a four-bit input to the TCM.
