Wheel Speed Sensor, Location

RPM sensors 2 and 3 (Y3/6n2 and Y3/6n3) are permanently connected with the supporting body of the
electrical control unit (Y3/6) via contact tongues. See Fig. 32
.
Wheel Speed Sensor,

The signals from the RPM sensors 2 3 (Y3/6n2, Y3/6n3) are recorded in the ETC control module (N15/3)
together with the wheel and engine speeds and other information, and are the input signals for the
electronic control system.

Operation
The RPM sensors are pressed against the transmission housing (51) by a spring (49) which is held against the
valve housing of the shift plate (2a). See Fig. 33
. This ensures a defined distance between the RPM sensors and
the exciter ring (50). RPM sensor 2 (Y3/6yn2) records the speed of the front sun gear via the outer multiple-disc
carrier of the front multiple-disc clutch (K1b) and RPM sensor 3 (Y3/6yn3) records the speed of the front
planetary gear carrier via the inner multiple-disc carrier of the front multiple-disc clutch (K1c).

Structure
The electrical control unit (Y3/6) consists of a supporting body made from plastic, in which the electrical
components, RPM sensors 2 and 3 (Y3/6n2, Y3/6n3), the regulating solenoid valves (Y3/6y1, Y3/6y2), the shift
solenoid valves (Y3/6y6), the starter lockout contact (Y3/6s1) and transmission oil temperature sensor (Y3/6b1)
are combined. See Fig. 35
. Conductor tracks integrated into the shell connect the electric components to a plug
connection (11).
