Claim 13:
14. A shift system, comprising:
a sliding sleeve moveable between a neutral position and a gear position;
a selector fork acting on the sliding sleeve such that movement of the selector fork between first and second shift positions causes corresponding movement of the sliding sleeve between its neutral and gear positions;
an actuator acting on the selector fork such that movement of the actuator between first and second actuator positions causes corresponding movement of the selector fork between its first and second shift positions; and
a state machine for controlling actuation of the actuator, wherein the state machine is operable to correct an actuator position of the actuator, in the event of a shift request into the first shift position or the second shift position, on the basis of a stored mechanical backlash between the actuator and the selector fork and a sign generated by the state machine and associated with the corresponding shift request.
