Procedure:

1. Figure 1 shows the schematics after the Proximity Selector Switch is installed.
Use the schematics as an aid through the installation procedure.

Figure 1: schematics for the Proximity Selector Switch

2. Retrieve the Proximity Selector Switch (Figure 2). Install the Deutsche
Receptacle (included in K-1475), as per the illustration on Figure 3. Verify the
wiring matches the schematics (Figure 1).

Figure 2: Retrieve the Proximity Selector Switch

Figure 3: Note the wiring on the Proximity Selector Switch

3. Inside the new Selector Switch there are three magnetic sensors which detect
the position of the switch (forward, neutral or reverse). See Figure 4.

Figure 4: Three positions for the Selector Switch

4. Remove the old selector switch. Disconnect all wires going to it. Remove the
top and side panels to aid in the next installation steps. See Figure 5.

5. The Selector Switch harness originates in the dashboard and will have to be
pulled back. Pull all wires back the RH Instrument Panel, except for wire 80B3
(which will stay behind). Cut cable ties as necessary. See Figure 6 and
reference the wire list below:
PULL WIRES: 80B1, 80B9, 90B1, 20E1, 20E2, 22E1, 89BK2, 81B1, 89BL2,
91B1
LEAVE BEHIND: 80B3.

Figure 6: pull the SSW harness (minus 80B3) back to the dashboard.

6. At TB18, locate the terminal where the wires 80B9 and 80B10 connect
(TB18E for legacy trucks, TB18J for newer trucks).

7. Connect wire 80B3 to TB18 (E or J, as identified in the previous step).

8. Retrieve the SSW – Terminal Board harness provided with harness kit. See
Figure 7.

11. Retrieve the four Relay Mounts (p/n 52706) and label them “SSW R1”, “SSW
R2”, “SSW R3”, “SSW R4”, respectively.

12. Install the wires from harness kit to the Relay Mounts R1, R2, R3 and R4 as
indicated on Figure 10 (use the “TO” column).

Figure 10: install the indicated wires into the relay mounts.

13. Install the Terminal Board (label it TB SSW) and the Relay Mounts (R1, R2,
R3 & R4) at the dashboard location shown on Figure 11. Drill holes as
necessary and use the hardware provided in kit.

14. Install the Terminal Board Jumper (p/n 56275) on terminals TBSSW-L and
TBSSW-M.

15. Connect all wires to TBSSW as per the table below (use “FROM” column):

Testing, Troubleshooting and Maintenance

1. Use the Troubleshooting Table below to test and/or troubleshoot the new
Selector Switch circuitry. NOTE: the truck’s Master Switch must be in ON
position.

2. The new Selector Switch still uses a spring mechanism to give the “latching”
effect. The spring may be replaced with a service spring (p/n 57794) if it
becomes too soft. See Figure 12 for the location of this spring.
