Function 

The selector lever is moved and positioned in the shift gate, which is not visible to the driver. All the selector lever positions are detected by the electronic selector lever module control unit (N15/5), coded and transmitted via the Controller Area Network-Bus Class C (engine compartment) (CAN-C) to the ETC [EGS] control unit (N15/3).

Selector lever positions "P", "R", "N" and "D" are passed on mechanically by means of a shift rod to the range selector lever on the transmission side in parallel to sending via CAN.

The shift ranges "1", "2", "3" and "4", up to those which the electronic transmission control permits the upshifting of the automatic transmission, can be shifted via a sideways movement of the selector lever into selector lever position "D" (touch shift).
