fuse for steerin wheel buttons, cruise control?

Post by waterford »

My cruise control, horn, and all steering-wheel controls suddenly stopped working. The manual doesn't list whart fuses control what. Does anyone know what fuse is gone? ( I'm assuming it iis a fuse)

You could have a look at Fuse 3 (5) & Fuse 6 (5A) in the panel in the left side of the upper rear engine bay. This is J519 (Fuse 4) the On-Board Supply Control Unit and J527 (Fuse 6), the steering column controller which is common to all these failing.

The box should have 2 black relays. Fuse 4 & 6 are.....
Start in rear corner nearest the passenger (left) side windscreen corner towards the back of the engine bay. Fuse 1 is empty, F2 is 30Amp, F3 is 5Amp, F4 is 20Amp, F5 is 15Amp, then F6 is 5Amp, the ones you need to look at.....

But....... this may be relevant, that either steering column controller or On-Board Supply Controller module has failed in some way.

Problem solved by re programming the control unit, it seems that the dealer was familiar with the problem. Hope that's the end of it.
