Common Questions

Will this reverse light switch fit my VW Polo?
This part (01307E / 40675) is listed for the fitments shown on this page. Confirm by matching the fitment details. Verify VIN/engine.

What is the difference between the two variants?
Both variants are functionally identical and cross-reference the same OEM numbers. 01307E is the budget-tier option from MAP Pro. 40675 is the premium-tier option from FAE, a recognised Spanish manufacturer of automotive electrical components. Choose based on warranty preference and budget.

What OEM part numbers does this cross-reference?
Cross-reference numbers are listed in the OEM Reference Numbers section above. Match at least one to your original part before ordering.

Where is this switch fitted?
The reverse light switch is fitted to the manual gearbox housing, threaded into a port that detects reverse-gear engagement. It is not the same as the brake / stop light switch (which is on the brake pedal). On automatic gearboxes, the reverse signal comes from the gearbox position sensor, not from this switch.

What thread size and pin count?
M12 x 1.5 thread, 22 mm spanner size, 2-pin connector, 12 V, normally-open contact. Verify against your removed unit before ordering.

How do I confirm fitment if there are multiple variants?
Compare the supplied fitment details to your vehicle. Verify VIN/engine. If unsure, request fitment assistance before ordering.
