German term

Fahrschalter

German to English Tech/Engineering Tractors
Tractor with electronic controls, operated with a "fahrhebel" (joystick) - but also with normal controls in case of failure of electronic system. This is an example from the manual troubleshooting section:
"Fahrschalter Signal "Fahrpedal Betrieb" fehlerhaft (Fahrpedalbetrieb, d.h. Fahrschalter wird verrastet)".
It may be the driving mode selector switch.

I prefer however your choice of \"mode selector switch.\"

The driving mode selector switch indicator for \"Pedal Operation\" is defective, etc.

What Claudia describes may also be called: \"ignition switch.\"

Thank you for the support.
agree Claudia Tomaschek : "Driving switch" is correct. Here is what my Bosch says: Fahrschalter ist der Schalter, der die Zünd- und Vorglühanlage betätigt, den Startvorgang einleitet und je nach Ausführung die Beleuchtung schaltet (Referenz Bosch, Fachwörterbuch Kraftfahrtechnik.
