Get Selector lever Guide for Volkswagen Touran 4 Door First Generation (2003-2015)

Selector lever

Actuation

The selector lever is actuated as in vehicles with

automatic gearboxes. The double-clutch gearbox

also offers the option of shifting using Tiptronic.

Release button

Precisely as in vehicles with automatic gearboxes, the

selector lever is equipped with a selector lever lock

and an ignition key withdrawal lock. The lock

functions as before. The design is new.

lk

The selector lever positions are:

P - Park

To move the selector lever from this position, the

ignition must be "on" and the foot brake must be

depressed.

S390_005

The release button on the selector lever must also be

pressed.

R - Reverse gear

The release button must be pressed to engage this

gear.

N - Neutral position

In this position, the gearbox is in neutral.

If the selector lever is set to this position for a long

time, the foot brake must be depressed again to move

it from this position.

Tiptronic switch in

steering wheel E389

D - Drive position

(Normal programme)

In this drive position, the forwards gears are shifted

automatically.

S - Sport

Automatic gear selection is carried out according to a

"sporty" characteristic curve, which is stored in the

control unit.

+ and –

The Tiptronic functions can be carried out in the right-

hand selector lever gate and at the steering wheel

switches.

Design of the selector lever

Selector lever E313

Selector lever locked in position P switch

F319

Hall senders in the selector lever mounting register the

position of the selector lever and make it available to

the mechatronic unit via the CAN bus.

If the selector lever is in the "P" position, the switch

transmits the signal – selector lever in "P" position –

to the steering column electronics control unit J527.

The control unit requires this signal to control the

ignition key withdrawal lock.

Selector lever lock solenoid N110

The solenoid locks the selector lever in the "P" and

"N" positions. The solenoid is controlled by the

selector lever sensors control unit J587.

How it works:

Selector lever locked in "P" position

If the selector lever is set to "P", the locking pin is

located in locking pin latch "P". This prevents the

locking lever from being moved unintentionally.

Selector lever released:

After switching on the ignition and actuating the foot

brake, the selector lever sensors control unit J587

supply the selector lever lock solenoid N110 with

current. As a result of this, the locking pin is withdrawn

from the locking pin latch "P".

lk

The selector lever can now be moved to the drive

position.

S390_009

Selector lever locked in "N" position

If the selector lever is set to the "N" position for longer

than 2 sec., the control unit supplies the solenoid with

current. As a result of this, the locking pin is pressed

into locking pin latch "N". The selector lever can no

longer be unintentionally moved into a gear. The

locking pin is released when the brake is actuated.

Emergency release

If the voltage supply to the selector lever lock solenoid

N110 fails, the selector lever can no longer be moved,

because selector lever lock "P" remains activated in

the event of a power failure.

By mechanically "pressing in" the locking pin with

a narrow object, the lock can be released and the

selector lever can be "emergency released" to the

"N" position.

The vehicle can be moved again.

Ignition key withdrawal

lock solenoid N376

The ignition key withdrawal lock prevents the ignition

key from being turned back to the removal position if

the parking lock is not engaged.

It functions electromechanically and is controlled by

the steering column electronics control unit J527.

The steering column electronics control unit J527

detects the open switch. The ignition key withdrawal

lock solenoid N376 is not supplied with current.

The compression spring in the solenoid pushes the

locking pin into the release position.

How it works:

Selector lever in "park position", the ignition is switched off. If the selector lever is set to the park position,

the selector lever locked in position "P" switch F319 is opened.

How it works:

Selector lever in "drive position", the ignition is

switched on.

In the locked position, the locking pin prevents the

ignition key from being turned back and withdrawn.

If the selector lever is set to the drive position, the

selector lever locked in position "P" switch F319 is

closed.

Only when the selector lever is pushed into the park

position does the selector lever locked in position "P"

switch open, and the control unit swtches off the

current supply to the solenoid.

The steering column electronics control unit then

supplies the ignition key withdrawal lock solenoid

N376 with current.

The locking pin is then pressed back by the

compression spring. The ignition key can be turned

further and can be removed.

lk

The locking pin is pushed, overcoming the force of the

compression spring, into the locked position by the

solenoid.
