A position sensor for a motor vehicle is described which, as its sensor signal, generates several pulse-width modulated signals that vary as a function of position. The position sensor transmits individual sensor signals in a defined sequence of consecutive individual pulses over the same output line to a receiver. The individual sensor signals are each encoded in the duty factor of a pulse. Therefore, the position sensor has a signal transmission system that is simple and inexpensive to implement. Particularly advantageous is the characteristic that it is possible to avoid an interconnection of the position sensor to a bus system.
