How are you all, it's been awhile.
The car has been back on the road for 4 days after a 12 month lay up.
As I'm parking the car tonight the 'box feels a bit weird and I get the red lights of death as I shift from reverse to drive. I turned the ignition off and then on again and the lights stayed off.
Vagcom shows:
17090 - transmission range sensor (F125): Implausible signal.
The Ross Tech Wiki says
Possible Causes
- Failed Multi-Function Transmission Range Switch (F125)
- Wiring harness issue between F125 and TCM

Possible Solutions

- Replace Multi-Function Transmission Range Switch (F125)
