Help need on BMW Performance Steering Wheel v2
So I went and did the install of this steering wheel myself
All and all the install went ok for the most part, so than what is the problem? Situation: When I start the car I get the amber yellow brake light come on and the amber triangle with a ! in the middle with the round arrow around it lights up. If I start to drive for a bit the lights go away and after about 30 MPH or so they come back on. Looks kind of light this: (stole picture for another thread and will try this solution but I have a 6MT) Problem 1): The Code that the car is spitting out is 5E40. Meaning CAN signal from Steering wheel angle sensor not plausible. Problem 2): when I make right turns, the turn signal does not stop on its own. It keeps on blinking and I have to manually shut it off. Problem 3): When I turned the steering wheel in any direction it clicks alot? Any help or input would be appreciated, thanks a lot everyone

Tried this fix yesterday:
get in car start car leave in park turn wheel all the way to the left without stopping until the end and pause there 2 seconds turn wheel all the way to right without stopping until the end and pause there for 2 seconds repeat to the left 1 more time return to center position. Got it from here http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=530262 Sadly it was not a success I am still searching for solutions and just can not find anything. Might have to take it apart again but till than... doesn't anybody have any input?

George.... follow these instructions for the SW install: http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=605284 And George.... this is where i found my solution: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=244795 Scroll all the way down to step 14. Once you arrive their keep on scrolling down to the third picture. This picture has an arrow in it. What you don't see is the inner ring. This inner ring has another arrow in it and it moves around. This inner ring also has different length teeth that will match the slip ring. What you have to make sure of is before you put the new slip ring on, make sure the outer arrow and in the arrow of the inner ring are pointing to each other. Once I did that, I put everything back together, drove the car a couple of feet and all was well. Also on another note, when you do the install.. make sure your tires are facing straight and that your steering wheel is at center. Also way behind the center console... you will see a tunnel that leads from the passenger side to the driver side. I used this tunnel to run the wires from the passenger side of the car to the drivers side. Other than that have fun with the install. Good luck

I'm stuck
Accomplished: passenger side side connections completed; sw installed Not done: could not figure out how/where to connect the open A1+A2 wires. If the connector that I'm looking at is indeed the x13376, then mine has only 26 pins, not 41, and does not have the GN/BR and the BR/SW. Where did you connect? A picture maybe showing the connector in the car... From what I understand, the 2 wires are for power - can I connect them somewhere else, not to x13376? Which one is for + and which one for - ?

It is there where you will find the X13376 connector and be able to tap into it with A1 and A2. The wires are there and the instructions are correct. It is a very tight fit. The best picture is in the pdf that you can download from the link I gave you from the instructions that tell you how to install the steering wheel.

Update: problem solved, it was my bad, I didn't press the G connectors enough... And for anyone wondering what pin I connected to, I did connect to pin1. Even though the color is different, pin1 is a Terminal 30g; pin13 is Terminal 15. My new sw works like a charm! Since I spent too much time finding the X plug, I took some pictures in case someone else has the same challenge.
