Title: Steering wheel controls suddenly back to front
Post by: John Lewis on 15 March 2008, 20:02:37

Hiya

Quick fix? My steering wheel volume controls have started malfunctioning, the '+' button does a mixture of muting and turning down, the '–' doesn't do much, then the 'o' turns it up! Next minute its fine and all works as it should. Anyone else had this and fixed it?

Same issue on our Rover, suspect the wiring has gone intermittently high resistance.

Doing a paperclip test? That will make no difference, as pins 5 and 6 are connected anyway.

Oh right OK then, cant remember if it was the top or bottom one that slipped but almost sure it was 4-5. Cheers mate.
