Johnson Controls<\/strong> is exploring a potential sale of its automotive electronics unit, writes Reuters<\/em>. The company has no intention of selling its automotive interiors business.<\/p>\n

Reuters<\/em> – Johnson Controls Inc (JCI.N) is exploring a potential sale of its automotive electronics unit, but has no intention of selling its automotive interiors business, the company said on Wednesday.
\nThree people familiar with the matter told Reuters earlier on Wednesday that the diversified conglomerate was looking to sell its automotive interiors division.
\nTwo of them later corrected the statement, saying they were referring to the electronics part of the automotive interiors and electronics segment, which accounts for a quarter of the division’s sales.
\nJohnson Controls, the largest U.S. auto supplier with 2012 sales of more than $4 billion in car interiors, has grappled with industry-wide pressure on margins, low vehicle production in Europe and increased competition from China.
\nA successful sale of the electronics unit would leave JCI with the interiors unit as well as three other major businesses: automotive seating, building controls and car batteries.
\nThe Milwaukee, Wisconsin-based company is being advised by investment bank JPMorgan Chase (JPM.N) on the potential electronics divestiture, the company said.
\n(This story is corrected throughout to show JCI intends to sell its automotive electronics business, not its automotive interiors business)
