In which case, I am well out of my depth ;-(

However, I'll take a punt or two.

Your box has a switch to turn
your reversing light on
/ rear proximity sensors on.

Does your van have anything else
to show which gear you are in?

The auto has lights on the dash
and lights near the stick.

Nearly everything involves 
a black Pandora's box aka ECU
so every option above 
could upsetting an ECU.

Switching and them on
maybe resetting the ECU.

Probably best to get 
your fault codes read 
by someone with
VW specific kit.

Some guff on fault codes here: -
