The disclosure relates to a control mechanism for automatic transmission in a motor vehicle to prevent operation of a selector lever under certain conditions. For example, the selector lever can be locked into the park position and shifted out of this position only after the brake pedal has been operated. The locking mechanism includes a manually controllable catch mechanism which cooperates with an electro-magnetically operated mechanism to achieve the desired selector lever control.

Control for automatic transmission in a motor vehicle

In a device on a motor vehicle with an internal combustion engine as the drive source and an accelerator pedal and transmission means for controlling the power of the internal combustion engine a switch activated when the accelerator pedal is actuated is provided in the power control system, which switch, in the non-activated state, prevents the internal combustion engine from delivering power exceeding its idling power. If the internal combustion engine is provided with an overrun cut-off for interrupting the fuel supply during overrun operation, the switch can be the idling switch of the overrun cut-off.
