Howdy folks,

 

Recently I pulled a heated steering wheel and clock spring out of a 2015 Sierra All Terrain (part numbers coming soon - will have to disassemble), and just installed it on my 2016 Sierra WT (as base model as it gets).

 

On install, I noticed that I’m missing the connector often tucked behind the dash for the heating element.  

 

No problem… or so I thought.

 

I used an “Add-A-Fuse” at my heated steering wheel fuse location, which has voltage, but no wires. I ran it to the positive of the heated steering wheel (Violet/White), and took black to ground.

 

Hooked up the battery, turned the truck on - no heated steering wheel. No button backlights. Was pleased to see that my cruise control was working though.

 

Read a post suggesting reversing polarity, so I gave it a shot. Violet and White to ground, Black to power. 
 

Aha! Heat! But I seemingly can’t turn it off AND still no backlights on any of the buttons. 

 

Checked all fuses, everything is still in good order. I’m stumped.

 

Does anyone have any insight? If so, please share!
