Whats up w/ the sensors on my T-56?

Which one is the speedo? Is the solenoid on the shifter for the skip shift? How does that wire in?


Anyone got a pic?
Please someone help me. Thanks.

The speedo is the one in the tail housing. The rest I'm not sure yet. Dont have any of them hooked up on my tranny yet.

Yea it works fine, its just a mechanical gearbox, its not electrically controlled. The CAGS solenoid is disengauged without power, so it does not affect shifting. The reverse is always locked out without power, but you can still get it into reverse, it just takes a little muscle. Obviously I've got no reverse lights or speedo, but I'm going to hook those up eventually.

Car: 2003 Porsche C4S
Engine: 3.6L
Transmission: 6-speed Manual
reverse lights: only sensor on passenger side

reverse lock-out - highest sensor on driver side, closest to shifter, attached to a solenoid.

VSS - small black connector on lower part of tailhousing on driver side.

All the connectors are different so if you have the pigtails you can't get them mixed up.

What's CAGS?

Can I use the speedo off of my old T-5?

the cags is "Computer Aided Gear Selection" or something like that, it forces a 1-4 upshift at low throttle openings on 4th gens. Dont worry about it, it won't affect you at all.
