Vehicle system and function
The relay belongs to the automatic transmission: it enables the starter motor only in selector lever positions P and N (starter interlock) and switches the reverse lights in position R. The signal comes from the multifunction switch on the transmission; two relays with diodes operate inside the housing.
Installation location: Slot in the relay carrier of the central electrics. On the Audi 100 C4, the starter interlock and reverse light relay sits in position 4; vehicles with a manual transmission have a jumper there.
Condition: Used genuine part with normal signs of use on the housing (Stribel 89 81 56, date marking 25.03.95). All blade terminals present.
How to recognize a defective part
  • ● Engine will not start in P or N
  • ● Reverse lights stay dark when R is selected

Important distinction – please check before buying
⚠ Compare relay number 201
443 951 253 J, K, L, S and AA (relays 213, 214, 215, 217, 219) have the same base number but different functions – please compare the cover number and index T with your old part.
⚠ Not the selector lever lock
The selector lever lock (shift lock) is controlled by a separate unit: 443 927 351 B, relay 297.
⚠ Does not fit:
  • Vehicles with a manual transmission (jumper instead of relay)
  • 443 927 351 B – relay 297, selector lever lock
  • 443 951 253 J / K / L / S / AA – same base number, different function

FAQ
How do I know if the relay fits?
By the number on the relay cover (201) and the part number 443 951 253 T on the housing – please compare both with your old part.
