Sensor and method for encoding and detecting a plurality of discrete positions are provided. The sensor comprises an array of electromagnetic assemblies 12. Each assembly may be made up of a magnet 14, and a flux-sensing switch 18 electromagnetically coupable to the magnet to generate a signal having a respective logical state in response to the presence or absence of flux from the magnet. A flux mask 16 is movably interposed between each magnet and flux-sensing switch. The flux mask includes a window array configured to pass or block flux from each magnet. The window array is further configured so that each flux-sensing switch can generate in response to whether or not flux passes therethrough, a signal set encoded to uniquely identify each of the discrete positions as the flux mask is set at any of the discrete positions. |

The slide switch (15) includes five fixed contact points (28a to 28e) and five movable contact points (32a). The movable contact points (32a) slide along the fixed contact points (28a to 28e) to switch the connection state with the fixed contact points (28a to 28e). A substrate (25) for the slide switch (15) has the fixed contact points (28a to 28e) and terminals (23a to 23e), each of which is electrically connected to one of the fixed contact points (28a to 28e). Each fixed contact point (28a to 28e) and the corresponding terminal (23a to 23e) are integrally formed. According to the substrate (25), a process to connect each fixed contact point (28a to 28e) to the corresponding terminal (23a to 23e) is omitted. Therefore, the number of manufacturing processes for the substrate (25) is reduced. |

There is provided a tack-fastening member (29), which is mounted in advance between a terminal block (3) and a moving block (7) before an inhibitor switch is fixed on an automatic transmission, for tack-fastening the terminal block and moving block at a relatively rotational position to detect a specific shift position of the automatic transmission and for being broken at a set torque. By this tack-fastening member, the moving block (7) is temporarily fastened on the terminal block (3), and the moving block in the temporarily fastened state is fitted on a manual shaft at the specific shift position. After this, the inhibitor switch is fixed on the automatic transmission, and the manual shaft is rotated to break the tack-fastening member from the temporarily fastened state. |

A control unit has an electronic control device (ECU) that includes a base board (50) on which a plurality of elements, including a microcomputer containing an automatic transmission program, are disposed. The electronic control device includes an integral neutral start switch (NSW) connected to the microcomputer. The neutral start switch (NSW) also includes a rotor (40) and contact-type switches (SW) operated by rotation-of the rotor. The base board and the rotor are disposed in a case and are substantially parallel to each other at opposite sides of an intermediate wall formed in the case. The base board is separated from the contact-type switches by the intermediate wall to prevent communication of oil or metal dust from the contact-type switches to the base board. |

In an automatic transmission system, a position sensor (10) provides digital and analog output indications of the sensed position of a manually operated transmission gear shift lever (113). Electrical contacts within the sensor are cofigured to minimize wear and corrosion by eliminating electrical continuity in the switching elements when the gear shift lever (113) is in the drive position. |

The housing has a pair of prongs (16d) which receive the roller (26) of the roller/spring assembly (28) to maintain the housing in a fixed angular position. An optional removable lock member (34) is shown to maintain the switch system components in a fixed position prior to installation in a transmission. A modified high current embodiment has a stationary contact assembly (18') with pairs of rails (18c') which lift respective movable contact elements (22a') to break a respective electric circuit at selected angular positions of the detent lever. |
