Universal Gear Shift Sender
GSS-2000
The easiest system to install and use on the market.
The Dakota Digital universal gear shift sender consists of three main components; the sensor,
decoder, and mounting brackets. The sensor mounts to the transmission and converts the transmission
linkage arm position into an electrical signal. The decoder converts the electric signal from the sensor into
the individual outputs for each gear and provides the neutral safety and backup features. The outputs are
selectable for positive or negative outputs. This unit can also support single-wire indicators from Dakota
Digital, Inc. The mounting brackets attach the sensor to the transmission housing and linkage arm.
The only parts of the gear shift sender that are different for the different transmissions are the
mounting brackets. The GM 350, 400, and 700-R4 use the same linkage connector and mounting plate,
but different holes in the mounting plate. The Ford C-6 and C-4 each have different mounting plates and
linkage connectors. For other transmissions, a universal mounting plate is provided.
