Clutch Switch Group
Detroit Diesel

The clutch switch group serves as a critical safety and operational component within heavy-duty transmissions. It detects clutch engagement and disengagement, transmitting signals to the engine control unit to initiate appropriate responses such as starting or preventing engine operation when the clutch is engaged. This switch also interacts with brake systems and other safety features, ensuring the vehicle operates within safe parameters. Designed for compatibility with Wabco systems, it ensures precise control over air pressure management to brake chambers, especially during critical braking events like ABS stops. Proper functioning of this switch not only enhances safety but also helps prevent drivetrain damage caused by improper clutch operation. Sourcing this part from a reputable parts center guarantees that it meets strict quality and safety standards, vital for maintaining fleet reliability and driver safety in demanding environments.
