Why is my DIC button on my steering wheel not working?
Reinstalled the cluster and all functioned normally, but for some reason, the DIC and steering wheel buttons stopped working. The puddle lamps as well as the reverse light illumination via remote lock / unlock stopped functioning too. I contacted the company that refurbed the cluster to see if the firmware update may have caused the malfunction.
What to do if your DIC isn’t working?
If just the DIC controls aren’t working the wiring harness in the steering wheel itself could be open somewhere. You must log in or register to reply here.
Why is there a wire in my DIC?
Their response was since I replaced the window switch, a wire may have become pinched when the window switch was replaced because the DIC functions off the driver’s door control module via a data wire.
How does DIC work on a Chevy truck?
So I sourced a switch from a used auto parts yard and made sure the codes on the back of the switch matched. When the switch was installed, apparently the VIN information from the used switch (thru the drivers door control module) was sent to the cluster, so the truck who’s switch I installed didn’t have the programming.
