Kick Down Switch
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 43 other vehicles, including the 2006 BMW M3, 2006 BMW 330Ci, 2006 BMW 325Ci, 2005 BMW M3, and 2005 BMW 330xi. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
When the throttle pedal is pressed fully to the floor, the kick down switch closes providing a ground signal to the GS 20. The GS 20 recognizes the ground as a request to provide an immediate down shift and to switch to the AGS sport mode shifting program. See Fig 1 .
