Ok. Watched the video and took out my fuse block. I have the violet/white wire in that location. See picture. Should that mean that the connector underneath is hot?

Just got mine installed. Heat works, but the light won't come on. At this point, I cant tell if the switch works, but the light doesn't or that the heat is always on. Going to let it cool down for an hour or so, start it up and NOT push the button to see what happens. Any suggestions?

Figured it out. Anyone familiar with Garage Logic? Radio show in Twin Cities MN. 50/50/90 rule. If you have a 50/50 shot at getting it right, 90% of the time you'll be wrong. Pictured a few posts back was my exact plug setups, but the plugs do fit, just in the opposite polarity. Current goes through the heating element first, then stops at the switch. Switch doesn't' do anything as expected. I pulled the wires out and switched them. Bingo! Taped it up and working great!

I got this in the mail today. Now just have to wait for the clock spring to get here.

I just checked my connector and it is hot. looks like I will be ordering the wheel and clock spring.

Got the steering wheel installed and works great. Wasn’t at first, then I checked the fuse in the fuse block and it was blown. Might have done that when I was checking to see if the connector was hot. Anyway, replaced the 7.5 fuse with a 10 since I don’t have any. Will get the 7.5 ordered.

Thanks Phil and everyone else for the help.

BTW, that airbag connector really is a PITA to get in and out.

Anyone know if the heated steering wheel from a 2019 would work in the 2018 Silverado! Just a thought, I like the look of the new steering wheel a lot better.

I got my heated wheel installed with a new clock spring. every thing works but the heat part. i have the connector under the dash and there is a 7.5 amp fuse in the fuse box says its for the heated wheel. I see everything on this form to run a wire if you don't have the connection but i have the connection and a fuse in the panel, not sure where to go from here. this job was easy until trying to get my old fat hands under the dash. I have a 2016 Silverado LT 1500 double cab 4x4

Your missing a wiring run in between. This is what you need.

what kind of joke is GM pulling? i pulled the fuse panel out and if i'm looking at it right there is no wire on the connector but i have the connector to plug the wire from the new clock spring.

ok, so how do i get the little wiring harness? probably be easier than trying to figure out where the wire is on my connection under the dash.

When GM built the Instrument Panel harnesses, they only built a small # harness part #s. Some of these variations will have the fuse block, fuse block, and part of the wiring. There is a junction connection up in the dash and you’re likely missing that wire from the connector to the fuse panel.

you are right i just looked there is another junction. i saw a purple wire going in but didn't see one coming out. i wonder if i could buy that wire with the terminals and just push them in that connection and the fuse block.
