Abstract
A method for automatic calibration of a position detection sensor of an automatic transmission including a gearshift actuator, the method including registering, using the position detection sensor, the position of the gearshift actuator upon power-up of the transmission; and performing a calibration of the position detection sensor if the registered position of the gearshift actuator is outside a predetermined expected position range of the gearshift actuator or within a predetermined abnormal position range of the gearshift actuator.
Claims3
Method for automatic calibration of a position detection sensor of an automatic transmission comprising a gearshift actuator, the method comprising:
- performing a calibration of the position detection sensor associated with the gearshift actuator if, upon power-up of the transmission, a recent request for preparing the automatic transmission for disassembly can be detected.
A computer system for implementing a method for automatic calibration of a position detection sensor of an automatic transmission comprising a gearshift actuator, the method comprising:
- performing a calibration of the position detection sensor associated with the gearshift actuator if, upon power-up of the transmission, a recent request for preparing the automatic transmission for disassembly can be detected.
Automatic transmission comprising a gearshift actuator, a position detection sensor, and a transmission control unit for controlling the gearshift actuator, wherein the control unit is arranged to perform automatic calibration of the position detection sensor by the step of:
- performing a calibration of the position detection sensor associated with the gearshift actuator if, upon power-up of the transmission, a recent request for preparing the automatic transmission for disassembly can be detected.
