Clutch module

On vehicles with manual transmissions, the clutch module at the clutch pedal picks up the clutch position (clutch pressed: clutch switch open; clutch not pressed, clutch switch closed). The clutch module consists of a clutch switch and an electronic evaluation unit.

The clutch module is supplied with 12 Volts, terminal R, and ground. A signal line leads into the DME. When the clutch pedal is not pressed, the clutch module delivers 12 Volts to the DME, and when the clutch pedal is pressed it delivers 0 Volts.
