Overview
The shift by wire system uses a rotary dial mounted on top of the GSM to command an actuator called the TRCM to change gear lever positions via a shift cable connected to the manual control lever located on the transmission.
The shift by wire system consists of:
-
a GSM that uses a rotary dial to select the desired gear.
