of transmission. Transmissions with hydraulic
control E17, the sensor for transmission RPM
(inductive sensor) is secured to bottom of valve
body. Transmissions with hydraulic control
E18/2, the sensor for transmission RPM (hall
effect sensor) is secured to transmission
housing behind valve body.
Information regarding which transmission is
installed can be found in tables page 00
