Abstract
In a method for controlling a gearshift mechanism, the gearshift mechanism having at least one shifting element, a gear release element, a shift actuator and a selector actuator, in which the shifting element is movable by the selector actuator along a selector track, and is movable from the selector track at sites spaced from each other by means of the shift actuator into shift tracks for engagement of a gear, and the gear release element is coupled to the shifting element, so that during engagement of the new gear, it disengages a previously engaged gear, the shifting element, after engagement of a gear, is moved by the shift actuator in the direction toward the selector track into a rest position right in front of the discharge of the shift track into the selector track, in which it remains, until it is moved for engagement of a new gear.
