The B6 CVT transmissions have problems with premature wear which can lead to failure and require regular fluid changes about every 80,000km.
So if the Range switch mentioned in the first answer (F125 switch?) doesn't fix the issue, and your transmission is a CVT, try a fluid change.
CVT's were fitted to small capacity Front Wheel Drive variants (2.0 petrol or smaller).
If you have Quattro, Turbo, higher capacity or Diesel engined variants, they may not be CVT.
IIf the vehicle is front wheel drive and now Quattro than then the transmission range sensor is located inside the transmission and is part of the mechatronics unit (valve body). If the vehicle isn't Quattro then the transmission range sensor is bolted to the drivers side of the transmission where the cable connectors to the shift lever. When these range sensors go bad that will cause the flashing or solid PRND light on the cluster.

there is probably a clamp down the side at the bottom of the battery to hold it in place

If it is the display for the gears flashing, this indicates a fault with the gearbox system, this is more common on multitronic gearbox's

I had the exact problem with my A4 2001 1,9 TDI but i just turned the car on, then first turned the steering wheel to the left as far as it goes, then to the right (i dont know if this is necessary but this is what i did). After i drove for few meters,the light went off and it worked normally.
