MFSW Buttons
« on: August 28, 2010, 03:21:13 pm »
Have managed to pick these up from flee bay,



What I want to know is are they all right to fit to my 57 reg Edition 30 DSG + highline dash. I have the paddles on the steering wheel so the way I understand it they should just plug in and require coding. Is this correct.
Information on wiring is
Left button = VW  3C0959537B 1QB
       TRW 61618390 A01
       TAS DE 500405769
       61618390A01215705000802  L
       HW 002
RIGHT BUTTON = VW 3C0959538C 1QB
            TRW 61618391 A01
            TAS DE 500405769
           61618391A01215705000802 R
   HW 002
Just for info the controller is marked
Stand : SW 005 HW 0006
Datum : 4 349
TRW NR. : 61618392B00
VW-NR : 3C0959542
Any help appreciated + do not have access to VCDS to Tuesday to have any info read from the car.

The buttons look right but they are the wrong style for a 2007 car.

MY07 onwards have an outward facing button interface, same buttons but they're designed differently, don't think it affects functionality but for retro-fitting purposes.

Your right they are the pre MY 07 but am not really bothered about that, just if they will work correctly. If the correct set comes up at the right price later I can always change them.

Not sure whether they will code correctly, or get all buttons doing the correct action once coded.

Did you price up new mfsw? or New Buttons to suit model year?

Thanks Saint Steve, no i did not price up correct buttons, but i got these for a good price so could always sell on if they dont fit.

TBH, best person to ask is Darren Mortygtdi about whether they are possible to code correctly with your setup.

Other then the colour of those buttons might look odd if you have a Black steering wheel/airbag on an earlier ed30 or a more Grey'er version if you have an 08 plate or later eddy.

Just been out to car to have a look at the colour, just took it for granted that they are all the same colour. As it turns out the steering wheel air bag cover is black and I don't think they will look out of place, original covers look not quite as black if that makes sense, just have to try and see.

I didnt know if your wheel/airbag was black (same as mine) or you had a Later eddy that has a different colour to ours. Tis Grey instead :happy2:.

Stephen they will be fine mate, they should work without any coding as your car already has the paddles and I think the coding is on the same lines.  Get them fitted then you can then see if you need coding.

Well as per usual Darren you're right again, just plugged in and all working. Menu button did not work to start with but after locking car then going for a drive to make sure paddles worked, locked car again and now menu button working. Only button not to do anything is phone button (no phone kit fitted).

Stephen - what's involved in fitting these please?  Is t a case of pulling off the blanks and plugging these in or is there more to it than that?

Thanks

M.

10 min job, pop off airbag module. Blanking covers are held in by 1 torx screw T25 i think? Then its a case of just plugging the new ones in (on DSG model)
