E85/E86 - Multifunction Steering Retrofit

[SAinSurrey]

Hey Guys

I have a 2006 E85 3.0si that did not have a multifunction steering wheel. I have since replaced this with a multifunction steering wheel (non-msport). The plugs are all there and connected, however, there doesn't seem to be any power going to the wheel (wheel doesn't illuminate).

Have noticed the instructions from BMW says "Encode/program the retrofit using DISPlus or GT-1 via path Retrofit/CIP" so think I may have answered my own question but good to get feedback - Is there coding that is necessary to activate the MFSW? Can anyone recommend someone that can do this?

Thanks

Mine did not need to be coded. I installed this on my 2003 and I had to add two wires to the green plug and tap those into the "I bus". The closest I bus wires are at the LCM. Just make sure those two wires are there.
