Steering Wheel Controls
Saturday, July 09, 2005 8:32 AM
Does anyone here know anything about the steering wheel controls tha can be found in the Sunfires? I know that they'll only work with the factory radio, but I am thinking about a little project, and was hoping to find out how they connect to the radio. Are they just buttons or to they connect to an IC and then to a data bus? Are they a variable resistor type? I also know about the kits to interfcace them with the aftermarket headunits, and that's not what I'm after. A wiring diagram or schematic would be really helpful. Also, is it possible to swap my steering wheel for one with controls, and keep my airbags?

I've tried searching, but can't seem to come up with anything.

THanks

Not really. I poke around here, but I'm mostly on the JCO. I just don't post much over here. Is there something that I'm missing in regards to my request?

Will do. Is it just a that you can unbolt from the wheel, or do you need the whole thing?

you can unbolt it but it leaves an empty area in the steering wheel......most dont want that void there......prob just easier to swap steering wheels
