A6 Shifter Lock Up

Is this the correct replacement Limit Switch for a 2007 A6 Shifter Lock Up in Park? Any help and advice would be appreciated Thank You

It looks like the correct amp and voltage range, and if it is 3/4"/x 1/4" x 3/8" , it should work. Hook it up for NO.

Yes, that is the correct switch.

I have read many great threads regarding the A6 shifter lock up problem. Is there anything wrong with replacing the Shifter Assembly using the assembly from Zip Corvette part # ST-6352 ?

I am curious if this part fits and works before I decide to purchase one.

Thank You 😊

I was more curious if the shifter assembly was the correct assembly for an A6. I read on other threads the shifter assembly was not available from Dealers.

Looks like they have a decent return policy (you pay for return shipping), so if you want a compatible part for your 2007, go for it.

Good luck and let us know your final results on the part.

I will keep everyone posted. I have also noticed that he shifter has been working fine since the car has been on a tender 24/7. I start the car a couple times a day just to see how the shifter is working. The battery is a 36mos battery and was installed in 7/19. I am thinking a poor battery may have been effecting the shifter solenoid. I will install a new battery first, then monitor the shifter for a while before changing the shifter or replacing the limit switch.

Any Opinions ?
