Berlina how to make steering wheel buttons light up

[TEGBOY]

HI all, I bought a set of the genuine "light-up" steering wheel buttons for my VZ Berlina. But they don't light up, I am guessing the Berlina's don't have the connections for the light up buttons? Is there a different loom or clock spring needed for this? I am pretty sure the VZ Calais buttons light up, so I would have expected not much to have changed between Berlina and Calais?

Can anymore help?

I could be wrong but i think the wiring is all there its just the clock spring doesnt have the contact for them. Change to Calais clock spring and should be good. Im sure someone will correct me if im wrong.

Hmmm, so a Calais clock spring will work with the Berlina airbag etc? I have never removed the clock spring.. eeekkk

There is a thread on how to remove steering wheel. Once you get that off pretty sure its just a couple of torx screws for the clock spring.

Interesting , my VZ SV 6 steering wheel buttons light up, as do the paddles for the active select

Double post sorry

Mine doesn't have the paddle shifts. I think, I might just have to buy the Calais clock spring and "hope" it works

Yes the SV6 will light up aswell as SS, Calais, Statos and HSV's. Dont think any others do from factory.

I would have thought that the Berlina's would light up also ,

Sadly no.. there blue illumination wire doesn't come into the middle of wheel for connection
