Paul need some help with the swap.
Where do I get the code from. Also, when I put the Piwis 2 code I get a message that coding was not successful.

Thanks

Hi, I’ve installed your adapter STMV1-H and the MF steering wheel with heating. I also swapped the clock spring unit. I now tried to activate these functions but I don’t have the coding for it. From where may I get the code to enable these functions?

Thank you for your assistance on this.

Best regards

Ernst

Hello,

I’m seeking guidance on what exactly to order to upgrade my steering wheel (got wheel and airbag) and I’ve been through the videos an installation / coding I should be on top off.

Car is Carrera 911 4S – 991.1

Existing wheel is: Sport, paddles, no MF and not heated.

New is: Sport, paddles, with MF, not heated

What parts should I order to make the conversion ?

Thx in advance
Br

In step 8 it says “Input the enable code you get and save.”
Where do you get the code to input?

How do you activate a 991.2 MF wheel on a non-MF equipped 997.2? I have installed your adapter and installed the wheel and airbag. You don’t have any instructions for programming the MF wheel for a 997.2.
