All 12 pins on the center console module are present. Why you only have wires on pin #11 & #12 ... well what button you have on the front of it? Just DSC/DTC?

The "Sport" button is basically momentarily join pin #8 + #10 in the center console box in turn that box send signal via CAN H&L over pin #11 & #12 you have to another module to enable the FDC and also turn on #9 LED on the 'Sport' button.

You only simply need wire on pin #8 & #10 then use a button that momentarily short them on push.

Yep, I've got this and I'll see tomorrow if it will work and report the results.

I have the heated seats buttons, DSC and PDC.

Thank you.

It is all done and it works :) I feel the steering wheel havier, the pedal is more responsive and the shifting is sharper, but I'm not sure what is the difference between DS and Sport mode.

Here are some pictures:

Maybe I missed it, but everyone does realize you can buy a new shifter cover that adds the sport button into a factory look, right? $150 at ecs

Yup sorry ... you sure missed it ... the factory look been mentioned many times earlier in this thread (at least I mentioned it in my post up above) ... also what you mentioned is only the shifter cover w/ sport button opening then you have to get the button itself ... then the wiring ... etc ...

That's on page 6. I don't think the button is included. Is it ?

Can't believe this took so long to figure out :)

Makes me want to mod again... I really have a love-hate relationship with this forum by now :)

BlaSTiWi Mar 16, 2013 07:42 AM

...mentioned even earlier than pg #6 ... but yeah no button included ...

What's the part number on the button? The pictures sure make it look like the button is included.

Wiring obviously not (button to other harness under radio I mean, but that's easy enough to make)

Never mind. Looks like it is 61319142869
