On a VW GTI I recently worked on, the upshift light depended on the backup 
switch. I suppose this is because it also told the car which gear the car is 
in. It also seemed to have a vacuum connection on the back of the instrument 
panel; maybe to tell how far the accelerator is pressed. I have no idea if 
the Audi is the same; the light on my '82 still works OK.
