DEVICE AND METHOD FOR SELECTING AN OPERATING MODE OF A TRANSMISSION OF A VEHICLE AND SYSTEM FOR SETTING AN OPERATING MODE OF A TRANSMISSION OF A VEHICLE

摘要

A device for selecting an operating mode of a transmission of a vehicle is presented. The device has a control panel thereby, having at least one selector switch for selecting an operating mode, and one release switch for enabling a function of the at least one selector switch. The release switch has a touch sensitive button, serving as a first interface to a sensor circuit for enabling the function of the at least one selector switch. The sensor circuit has a second interface on an actuator for a driving function of the vehicle thereby. The sensor circuit can be closed by producing an electrically conductive connection between the first interface and the second interface via a driver region of an interior space of the vehicle.
