Steering Wheel Squib/clock spring with the 2 pin connections for flappy paddles

Post by 1536Z4 » Sun May 28, 2023 5:31 pm

I may be after a clock spring for Z4 E86 with the 2 pin connection for the flappy paddles . I bought one of eBay but it does not have the 2 pin connections just a blank hole as shown in photos . I have the messaged seller to see if he has one in stock with the connectors but I am not holding out much hope . Part number is 61318376445.

Cant see anything with that link :( I know you can get aftermarket items like this https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/275632268138 but wasn`t sure if they are any good and a bit pricey compared with used BMW .

Bigwinn has some clock springs for sale in this thread and from zooming in i think one has the 2 pins you need:

I bought this one. Same seller, but cheaper. I dont know why.

Clockspring is fine, but I’ve really struggled with the flappy paddles. I’ve purchased two flappy paddle steering wheels allegedly from autos, which have turned out to be from SMGs :headbang: . The chipset in the paddles is completely different and not interchangeable. If you or anyone else has some spare auto paddles, I would love them, thanks.

Thanks to you both and good to know they work . Sorry Zedebee cant help you with paddles. I remember you asking about the chip in the flappy paddles when I had mine apart . I will keep it in mind when looking at parts on internet . :thumbsup:
