...........does any one know where this is. My reverse lights intermittently stay on and I reckon the switch just needs some WD40. I just need to find the darn thing. Confused

Doesn't it use a "relay" for the reverse lights?
The old Passats used the switch at the gear selector, but since 1990 I think
it uses a relay now for the automatics.
The early ones (1990-) could have the reverse lights come on if there was a
problem too with the electrical components of the automatic transmission.
