Hallo Mates,

Can somebody help with the paddels?

I have an M5 SMG stearing wheel with paddles.

can someone help me how to connect the wires?

I found the 2 wires in the gearbox .. one is green/blue other is grey/blue.

to the paddles go 4 cables.. blue/green , blue/grey ,ground and some other red cable that also coneect the paddles with each other..
did not undestand how that should work... if i would have the SNG gearbox.. how my gearbox would know that i use the paddles if the bluegrre and bluegrey cables dont go to car.. ? they are just connecting the paddles with each other.. the only 2 cables that leaves toward the cars are both ground...

if you push the paddles then the ground and the bluegreen or the bluegrey cable have conection..
but i dont understand why thouse bluegreen and blue grey cables dont go into car..

i also conected only the UP cable to the gearbox,.. but dont work..

maybe someone can help

thx

I got an SMG paddle shifter steering wheel retrofitted to work w/ my STEPtronic ... yes it's been done the wiring mod is done on the steering wheel coil spring.

The link provided above is basically what you need it's pre-wired from the steering wheel coil spring to the STEPtronic shifter.

Thx for your answers, but there must be an solution without the expensive retrofit kit that some company sell.. i mean some members of this forum did it without.. so would be nice if someone of thouse guys could help.. strange that thouse people that got it working with help... dont help others..

Those members that got it working are the people behind those company ... I guess something are not for free.
You have to take the consideration those that sell the kit are not selling just the how-to but they actually sell the part that already modified.

GL on your journey!
