Vemo Brake Light Switch V10-73-0158

The Vemo brake light switch, part number V10-73-0158, is listed as a single switch sold each and identified for braking applications. It is the type of part that needs to match the vehicle’s electrical and pedal-switch arrangement exactly, so the part number matters as much as the description when comparing replacements.

This is a brake components item within the braking category, not a universal switch. The fitment information supplied references Audi and Volkswagen applications, including Audi A3 and Volkswagen Caddy model listings across multiple years, but the safest purchase check remains the part number V10-73-0158 against your existing switch and vehicle application details.

A one-year warranty is listed, which gives a clear reference point for the product offering, but it does not replace fitment checking. For a brake light switch, the key buying concern is correct application, because the switch affects when the brake lamps are triggered and must suit the vehicle it is fitted to.

Where a vehicle list is available, use it as a guide only if it matches your exact model, year and any other application details supplied for the car. The sample fitment shown here includes Audi A3 model years from 2003 through 2013 and Volkswagen Caddy model years from 2004 through 2014, so year matching is part of the selection process, not an automatic confirmation.

Application and Buying Notes

When replacing a brake light switch, the first checkpoint is the part number V10-73-0158, because even parts with the same general description can differ in operation or connector arrangement. The listing identifies this as a Vemo switch sold each, so compare the old switch and the vehicle’s application details before ordering.

The fitment information provided points to Audi A3 models across 2003 to 2013 and Volkswagen Caddy models across 2004 to 2014, but that is still not a substitute for checking the exact vehicle build. If your vehicle is an Audi or Volkswagen from those ranges, use the year, model and part number together rather than relying on model name alone.

This part sits in the braking category, under brake components, so correct operation is important for brake lamp activation. A brake light switch is a small part, but it is one that should be matched carefully because it works as part of the vehicle’s control system and must be suitable for the specific application.

The listed one-year warranty is useful for purchase confidence, but the most important practical check is compatibility. Before fitting, confirm the existing switch shape, connection style and any application details you already have, then compare them with V10-73-0158 to avoid an unnecessary return.

If you are sourcing for a workshop or home repair, it is worth keeping the old switch on hand until the new one is verified. For a switch like this, the correct part number and the vehicle’s fitted application details are the main points that should guide the buy, especially where the model range covers several years.

Before supply, the safest approach is to confirm the original unit details against the listed part number, voltage, output rating, mounting arrangement, and pulley configuration. That checking process is standard practice in the parts trade because visually similar units can still differ in service-critical ways.

For workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number V10-73-0158 helps avoid unnecessary freight, additional labour, and vehicle or machine downtime. Where the application is not straightforward, the original unit, OEM reference, or workshop records should be used as the primary confirmation point.

BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH. Part number V10-73-0158 should be checked first. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.

For part number V10-73-0158, the normal identification sequence is part number, electrical rating, mounting arrangement, connector or terminal style, and pulley or drive details. Using those checkpoints helps confirm that the listed unit matches the service requirement rather than only looking similar.

For a switch in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed electrical specification should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Available application references include AUDI A3, AUDI A3 2003, AUDI A3 2004, AUDI A3 2005, VOLKSWAGEN CADDY, VOLKSWAGEN CADDY 2004. Even with application listings, final confirmation should still be based on the exact unit being replaced and the service requirements of the vehicle or machine.

Compatibility note: Confirm fitment by matching V10-73-0158 with your vehicle’s application details and the original brake light switch before ordering. The supplied fitment references Audi A3 and Volkswagen Caddy applications only; do not assume compatibility beyond the listed model and year guidance.
