Gearbox position sensor wiring on manual d3 - HELP!!!
Help! I’m currently doing the clutch on my d3 and a wire got damaged on the plug going into the gearbox position sensor on the top of the gearbox. Does anyone have the pinout of the plug and wires and where they run too?

Many thanks! I don’t suppose anyone has a photo of the plug too, with the wires running into it?

I've got everything back together, but I've got the message about calibration which I expected, but also a message about a parking brake fault, which I think it down to the faulty wire. I can't select low range(makes calibration tricky) as it doesn't know where neutral is. Other wise parking brake works fine.
I have the following message on IID and this was the connector too:

One wire snapped, but the plug has 6 holes for only 4 pins, and they are not all in a row. The sensor side has 6 pins, I managed to pull the plug to bits ok, but dropped it as I took out the pin with the snapped wire, and lost my eye on where the pin was from. (I should have photoed it, I know, but got carried away)
Can IID tell me what wire is missing??
I think I put the wire back in the wrong hole, I had a 1 in 3 chance.
I could really do with a photo of what wires are which of possible, or a list of the pins on the transmission position sensor?

Hi mate, that pic I sent above tells you which pin number is what colour so if the other 3 are where they were you should be able to put it back in the right place

Should clear the fault as that wire goes to pin 8 on the control module

The other side of the image zoomed 👍
First splice by trash can symbol on my screenshot, is where landrover splice it before the transmission control module

That’s the funny shaped module in the engine bay with a black curved fitting?

That I can't tell you, as I've never looked lol I can just read wiring diagrams well lol 😂
I believe two wires actually go to transfer box hence your problems, pin 5 + 6 (red/yellow and 1 you broke) lol

Strange thing is, I drove it to work this morning, and it showed all the gears correctly on the display?

Yeah, first 2 wires go from gear position sensor straight to control module the latter pair which includes one you broke goes from gearbox position sensor to transfer box position sensor and splices into the wires for that with a separate signal wire from the transfer box selector sensor back to the control module, thus, if everything in order gives you low range.
