External Controls
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Mercury Milan and 2010 Ford Fusion. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The external control of the Electronically Controlled Continuously Variable Transmission (eCVT) is mechanically controlled by a cable connected to the selector lever and electronically controlled by the TR sensor (located on the transaxle). The selector lever position determines PARK, REVERSE, NEUTRAL, DRIVE and LOW modes. For diagnosis, removal and installation of the TR sensor, refer to AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE/TRANSMISSION - ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (ECVT) .
