Abstract

A locking device is provided for a selector with a locking member, having devices for receiving at least one latching element. To actuate the latching element, a latching lever is actuated by outside force. To increase operating safety during the locking of the selector, a support on the latching lever holds the latching element in a first, locked position and another element for pivoting the latching element into a second, unlocked position.
