1. A manifold valve having a position detecting mechanism, the valve comprising: a selector valve for selecting a flow path of pressure fluid and a manifold base mounted with the selector valve, whereinthe selector valve includes a casing having a mounting face to be mounted to the manifold base, a spool provided in the casing to select the flow path, and one or two solenoid-operated pilot valve(s) for driving the spool, the casing includes a first recessed portion formed at a portion of the mounting face and a part housing chamber formed at a different position from the first recessed portion, one or more position sensors for detecting an operating position of the spool are housed in the part housing chamber, a first relay connector for both signal transmission and feeding and electrically connected to both the position sensors and pilot valves is housed in the first recessed portion, the manifold base includes a placing face on which the selector valve is mounted, a second recessed portion formed at a position on the placing face corresponding to the first recessed portion, and a substrate housing chamber inside the base and connected to the second recessed portion, a second relay connector to be electrically connected to the first relay connector by mounting the selector valve onto the placing face is housed in the second recessed portion, and a main wiring substrate for signal processing, signal transmission, and feeding and electrically connected to the second relay connector is housed in the substrate housing chamber. 2. A manifold valve according to claim 1, wherein the part housing chamber is formed on an upper face side of the casing and is covered with a detachable cover, a lamp substrate is disposed in the part housing chamber and is electrically connected to both the pilot valves and position sensors, lamps for individually indicating operating states of the pilot valves and the position sensors are mounted onto the lamp substrate, and the cover is provided with an indicating window through which the lamps are observed.3. In a manifold valve according to claim 2, wherein substrate supports individually and electrically connected to the pilot valves and also functioning as terminals are provided in the part housing chamber, support legs also functioning as connectors are provided to the lamp substrate, the lamp substrate is detachably disposed in the part housing chamber by supporting the support legs on the substrate supports in electrically connected states, and a sensor connector for electrically connecting the position sensors to the lamp substrate and the first relay connector is detachably connected to the lamp substrate.4. A manifold valve according to claim 1, wherein the position sensor(s) is (are) a magnetometric sensor for detecting a magnet mounted to the spool and/or a pressure sensor for detecting fluid pressure of an output flow path.5. A manifold valve according to claim 2, wherein the position sensor(s) is (are) a magnetometric sensor for detecting a magnet mounted to the spool and/or a pressure sensor for detecting fluid pressure of an output flow path.6. A manifold valve according to claim 3, wherein the position sensor(s) is (are) a magnetometric sensor for detecting a magnet mounted to the spool and/or a pressure sensor for detecting fluid pressure of an output flow path.
