Land Rover Part Number: TXM500040 - Gear Position Sensor - ZF 6-Speed Manual
TXM500040 is a Gear Position Sensor - ZF 6-Speed Manual. Fitted to the ZF S6-53 six-speed manual transmission, the sensor detects the selected gear position and converts the selector's mechanical position into discrete electrical signals. Mounted to the external selector linkage, it relays the selected gear position to on-board systems for gear indication, transmission inputs and related safety interlocks. On Discovery 3 and Discovery 4 models fitted with the S6-53 transmission, correct sensor signalling aligns gear indication and transmission-related responses with the actual selector position. Replace with the matched part number to maintain correct position signalling.
