Video tutorial

As seen in the attached video tutorial, on the Audi A4 B6, the reverse light switch is located right in the transmission housing, near the driver’s side axle boot. To access it, raise the car on a lift or with a jack.

The sensor is easily recognizable by its distinctive shape. To remove it, simply disconnect the connector and unscrew it counterclockwise.

This task can be challenging due to limited space; you can make it easier by removing the wheel on the driver’s side first.
