The present disclosure relates to a control system for gear selection of a transmission for an electrically driven vehicle, wherein said control system comprises a gear selection control device and a gear selection input device, the gear selection input device comprising a user input element for selectively holding a constant gear, and wherein said control system is adapted to hold a constant gear of the transmission while the user input element is activated. The disclosure also relates to a transmission arrangement, a powertrain, a vehicle and a method.

A work vehicle includes a transmission to shift gears by switching between main transmission gears and auxiliary transmission gears, an input interface for a user to set a value of the main transmission gear corresponding to at least one of the auxiliary transmission gears, a storage to store a correspondence between the auxiliary transmission gear and the value, and a controller configured or programmed to, when the auxiliary transmission gear is switched, set the main transmission gear to the value corresponding to the switched auxiliary transmission gear based on the correspondence.

A method is provided for operating a shifting element of a motor vehicle, where the shifting element has a shift sleeve which can be actuated from an actuator via a shift fork and which, in order to perform a gear shift via the shift fork, is actuated by the actuator in an actuation direction specified for the gear shift to be performed. The shift sleeve is displaced translationally from an actual position to a target position, after which the shift fork is actuated by the actuator in the direction opposite to the actuation direction specified for the gear shift to be performed, while maintaining the target position of the shift sleeve.
