Program and Gear Display

Program and Gear Display





On vehicles with automatic transmission or sequential manual transmission (SMG), the program and gear selected are shown in the center of the lower window of the LC display. The program and gear display is activated when terminal 15 is on. At terminal 15 off, run-on operation of the display is possible provided the SMG is still transmitting CAN messages.
The information between the control units for the automatic gearbox or SMG and the instrument cluster are exchanged via the K-CAN. The program and gear display shows letters and numbers. The program mode is displayed all the time and is not overwritten by other information.

Note: With SMG, the selector-lever position N flashes after the engine is turned off. This indication serves as a visual reminder that the car could still roll away.
