T6 DSG LED board

[Devaprem]

Hi. Can anyone tell me how I find out the replacement part for this board? It provides LED backlight to the DSG gear change indicators. Broken when trying to refit the Comfort dash centre console! I've tried googling all three numbers on the white label but nothing relevant comes up. I can see reference to a similar board in the T6 forums but this is for a T5 (https://www.t6forum.com/threads/replacement-circuit-board-for-gear-selector-backlight.13915/).

That should be repairable by a half descent electronic technician.


Might be worth getting in contact with these people and enquire. They are a Forum Trade Partner.

Is the yellow component just a passive connector or is it an active component or microchip? If just a connector it’s a simple repair. You could replace it with short lengths of insulated wire. If it’s an active component still easily repairable as long as it can be identified. It doesn’t look like a chip to me. (I designed circuit boards in a previous life).

Replacement Circuit Board For Gear Selector Backlight

Hey guys. I was doing some work on the van this weekend to get a smart charger and leisure battery installed. I took some pieces of the dash off to wire the charger into the ignition, and in doing so I managed to snap the ribbon that connects the lighting panel to the LED that illuminates 'P' on...

Thanks for your replies.
WelshGas, thanks for the link, I’ll contact the company tomorrow.
GrumpyGrandad, it isn’t an active component, it looks like just a PCB ribbon cable (that part of the board just has the LED that illuminates the P on the DSG display) so all the cable is passing is switched power.
Perfectos. Thanks for the link but that looks like the one for the T5.

One thing that occurs to me now, with the Park selection part of the LED board now disconnected, is whether there’s a possibility of a problem with that. I’m wondering if the board also provides feedback of the gear selection through to the engine management system, for instance. That said, it is just the ‘Park’ status feedback that may be affected as all the other selection LEDs and any other circuitry is on the undamaged part of the board. Can anyone offer any comments on this possibility?

Thanks for the link. I’m in touch with him and checking part number. VW have some variants of this part.
