Steering Wheel: Description and Operation

General Information







The optional multi-function steering allows functions of the radio and cruise control to be operated from the steering wheel.

The multi-function steering wheel system contains the following components:
- Operating unit in steering wheel with two key pads mounted left and the right on the steering wheel with integrated electronics.
- A control module for the multi-function steering wheel (located on the 13-position auxiliary relay panel).
- A counterweight is installed in the steering wheel on diesel vehicles

Before troubleshooting or servicing, technicians must be familiar with the functions and operation specifics of the applicable standard or optional radio system and cruise control system as controlled by the multi-function steering wheel. Always read the vehicle/radio owner's manual and review all radio, tape player and CD Changer functions as they pertain to multifunction steering wheel operation.
