Abstract: A method may include coating an electronic module in a tool, where the electronic module has a first sub-module and a second sub-module, where the tool has a first tool part and a second tool part, where the tool has a cavity at least partially formed between the first tool part and the second tool part, and where the first sub-module and the second sub-module are supported on the tool and held in the cavity at a spatially defined distance relative to one another in a contactless manner during the coating process. A tool for performing such method may include a first tool part and a second tool part that form a cavity, where the first tool part has a first molding surface section and at least one first supporting section that extends over the first molding surface section and the second tool part has a second molding surface section and at least one second supporting section that extends over the second molding surface section.

Abstract: An electronic selector lever module for generating gear shifting signals for an automatic transmission of a vehicle. The swivel motion of the gear selector lever, within a main shifting path, is transformed into rotational motion for an angle sensor. The sensor is positioned on a printed circuit board and is actuated by a rotor. To guide the rotor relative to the angle sensor, the rotor either surrounds a rounded part of the printed circuit board or surrounds a rotor guidance which is mounted on the printed circuit board. The mechanical linking point is a short sleeve at a slider, which both belong to the rotor, needed for the shifting path motion, and which also drive the tilting lever for the transverse motion. The slider can be moved, relative to the rotor, along rails, either radially and directly at the rotor, or tangentially to the pivot point of the rotor.

Abstract: A connector for electrical and mechanical interconnection of first and second mechanically adjacent modules with one another. The first module includes a first electrical connector and an alignment pin and the second module includes a printed circuit board floatingly and displacably mounted on the second module with at least one alignment hole aligned for alignment with the alignment pin of the first module and a second electrical connector aligned for engagement with a corresponding first electrical connector of the first module. During assembly, the alignment pin of the first module engages the alignment hole of the second module and displaces the printed circuit board to align the second electrical connector with the first electrical connector.
