Abstract
The invention proposes a detection device including a selector linkage with a gear change lever, with which are associated a force threshold detector, a first analog position detector connected to gear shift means, and a circuit for firstly activating an automatic clutch actuating system and secondly processing information received by the threshold detecting means and the first detector. A second analog position detector is connected to line selector and is responsive to information applied to the gear change lever, the second detector being connected to the processing and control circuit.
