I own a Porsche 911 Carrera 4S (year 2002), automatic transmission (Tiptronic). Where is located the back-up light switch on this car? Do you have a drawing showing this component at this location?

Thank you, regards.

I just realized you have a tip, I'm not sure if it's the same part but, on a manual it's on the transmission, it's a small switch that has the pin worn out, real easy fix if you can get under the car safely and fix yourself. And that's a $13.00 fix if you do it and I would bet $100 at the dealer.

My shift cable broke and while it was at the dealer they noticed that the switch wasn’t working. They wanted to charge me another hour (at $102.50 per hour) on top of the 4 hours they charged me for the cables but decided just to charge me for the switch after I pointed out that it should only take a few minutes for an experienced mechanic to replace it.

This is not for the TIP optioned cars. I own a 2001 996TT and the reverse switch is not located at the transmission.

Awesome thanks for posting, I assume they just ran wires to the reverse lights and a 12V source?
