Where is the gear position I sensor located on the Audi A6?

[StChase]

The gear position sensor on the Audi A6 is located under the hood, at the upper left corner of the engine, near the battery. Here is some relevant information: 1. The gear position sensor has multiple contact points. When the car shifts gears, the contacts move to the corresponding gear position, changing the voltage value. The gear position sensor detects the gear shift signal and transmits it to the transmission computer, which then controls the corresponding actuators. 2. Before starting the vehicle, the gear should be in the P (Park) or N (Neutral) position. If the gear position sensor malfunctions or is damaged, the transmission computer cannot determine the specific gear position, causing misalignment and preventing the car from starting. Even if the car can start, abnormal gear shift signals may be input during driving, leading to significant jerking and affecting driving comfort.
