Abstract
Methods and systems for shifting a transmission that includes a dog clutch are described. In one example, the transmission may be coupled to an electric machine and a rotational speed of the electric machine may be adjusted to reduce a speed differential between rotating transmission components. A position of a shifter actuator may be adjusted according to an estimate of when the speed differential is equal to a predetermined value.
