1. The document provides instructions for installing an aftermarket steering wheel adapter, which requires removing the steering wheel, steering control unit, and breaking a contact on the control unit plate. 2. Wires must be soldered from the adapter to the control unit plate and steering wheel connector. 3. The adapter is then installed and the steering wheel reattached. Symptoms that indicate installation issues include the adapter LED not lighting or incorrect voltage readings between adapter wires.

Installing

We'll need these tools: small flat screwdriver, soldering iron, electric tester, wrench with
torx bites

1. Take off steering wheel (example: https://www.drive2.com/l/288230376153213343/ )

• when disconnecting airbag connector, we may leave battery connected, the airbag will
not tirgger

• steering wheel bolt requires a force to unscrew, be prepared


2. Take off steering control unit

• pretty simple - disconnect all connectors, unscrew couple of bolts...


• don't rotate steering wheel connector - it should remain in the same center position
3. Disassemble steering control unit

• we need to take off plastic body only. To do this, use flat screwdriver to disconnect
plastic latches. No need to disassemble rotating steering wheel connector

4. We are interested in a path on the plate highlighted on the images:

Break the path using a knife, screwdriver


or any similar tool.

In result we should break contact from the


capacitor on the left side to the pin on the
right, as marked on the image. Check it
with tester: should be no contact between
the capacitor and the pin, as well as
between them and ground. Pay attention
on this moment because it caused issues
on practice
5. Solder 2-contact wire which comes with the adapter
We have a "hook" soldered to one end of the wire - install it into the blue pin as shown on
the picture. Solder other wire yellow to the capacitor. The result should be as displayed:

Move the wire behind the plate to prevent it from mechanical damage in the future - so, if
we pull the 2-pin connector too hard, we'll not tear apart the soldering point or the pin
hook.
Connect the 6-pin wire from the adapter in place of the cruise control connector (located next to the
yellow one) and the 2-pin wire. in this case, if there is an original connector, you can cut and solder
wires as per photo 1, if there is no connector, you have to solder 6 wires as per photo 2.

It makes sense to connect the adapter to steering control unit on the table and then install
this altogether into the car, so we do it in comfort space.

Before we install the steering control unit


back in the car, check the contact which just
inserted into the white pin, because it also
happened that this moment caused issues
on practice. Using a tester check contact
between the steering wheel connector
(highlighted with arrow on the image) and the
wire which we just installed. If there is no
contact it means that our "hook" in the pin
needs to be re-inserted
The adapter fits well under the steering wheel column. The tape prevents the adapter
from mechanical and electric contact with the steel body:

Install the adapter carefully without brute force, as far as it may cause damage to the
wires or soldering points.

always have to insulate this metallic part so that the adapter does not touch the iron and does not
burn. insulate with tape or cloth tape

6. Install MQB steering wheel and check if everything works well

In conclusion here are symptoms of some potential issues if installation process


went wrong:
When the car is on the adapter should light on with red LED. If the LED is off it means bad
contact on the 6-pins connector (power supply is on this wire). In this case the adapter
isn't operating at all.

We can do a general diagnostics with a tester:


- second wire on the 6-pins connector is 12V power, third wire is ground, other wires
change it's voltage depending on cruise control buttons pressed. When checking the
wires, be accurate to not contact neighbour pins because in that case the steering control
unit may brake!
- 2-pin wire is for LIN bus, voltage there should be 10-11V
If needed we can return to factory functionality of the steering control unit by connecting
pins 2-pin connector which each other (so we return contact which we broke on the
plate). In this case the old steering wheel will be working with the factory cruise control
handle.
7. Whoever has steering wheels with heating and with the R button has here a connection diagram
for the same in the photo.
1. for heating to work you have to change your original module, add heating tape of a module (golf7
or passat b8).
2. Optional R button can be connected to the exhaust valve or some car ambient light.

It only works on golf8.arteon style touch steering wheels. t-roc. tiguan. for them to work they have to
be programmed on the bench connected to the MQB gateway then it can be used normally.

Modules that are compatible with the adapter are next in the list:
hw009, hw016, hw018 . sw0135, sw 0140, sw0180, sw 230.
model car: Scirocco 2010>, EOS 2010>, passat b7 , CC,
Caddy 2010>, touran2010> , tiguan 2010> , jetta2010>,
scharan 2010>, seat alhambra 2010>,

module coding. very important and bait 2- bit5(has to be on) and bit4- off(image
foto number 7. so the module turns on red light wants to say that everything is
well done
