Gear Selector Multi Plug Switch. Porsche 986 / 987C / 987 / 996  ❭  98632561203

Gear selector multi plug switch.
High-quality replacement gear selector multi-plug switch (also known as gear position switch or multifunction switch) for Porsche vehicles equipped with Tiptronic automatic transmissions. This switch is mounted on the exterior of the gearbox and communicates the driver’s shift-lever position to the transmission control unit and vehicle electronics. Without accurate sensor feedback, you may experience shifting faults, “Tiptronic emergency mode,” or incorrect gear markings in the instrument cluster.

Fits:
Porsche 996 >>2001 Tiptronic
Porsche 986 Boxster 1997 - 2004 Tiptronic
Porsche 987 Boxster 2005 - 2008 Tiptronic
Porsche 987C Cayman 2006 - 2008 Tiptronic

When this switch fails or wears out, symptoms can include:
• Dash shows incorrect gear or flashes D/N warning
• Transmission stuck in “emergency” or shifts only to first gear PFF +1
• Passing-off codes from PIWIS or similar diagnosing tiptronic position errors
• Rough shifting or TIP-tronic mode faults

Replacing the switch with a correctly unit restores the gear-lever-to-transmission interface, prevents costly error codes or limp mode and ensures full Tiptronic function.

When to replace:
•  If you are experiencing Tiptronic mode failures or error messages
•  On a high-mileage Boxster/996 with automatic gearbox and selector faults
•  During transmission servicing when the external switch is accessible.
