Hello guys. I have an Ibiza 6L 1.9 TDI ASZ. I recently bought and put a TRW Multisteering wheel from Leon 1P . After some talk with technics, I've been told that there is a big differnce in the buttons communication module between the one for Leon 1P and the one for Ibiza 6L. As I researched, I found the both modules with their part numbers. When you look at them they are pretty much the same on the outside, only with different part numbers, but I am not sure how the things are going inside these modules. So I am looking for a comment from you, guys, in order to help me and advise me if I have to look for another module or steering wheel (from Ibiza) or this one from Leon can be attached to the Ibiza Multimedia without any problems. I can't attach pictures of the two modules. Sorry about that. The one with PN: 6L0959542 is for Ibiza, the other one with PN: 1P0959542 is for Leon 1P, Golf V, Passat B6, etc., which is on my Ibiza at the moment.

I bought a leon fr wheel to replace my standard rubber one. Was hoping them buttons would work because they're backlit but they didn't. So I swapped my buttons from old wheel over.

You're issue is different because your car didn't come with buttons. You have to fit a module and probably wire it into the radio. I have seen a few guides on her previously when researching for my wheel.

Hi.

Mine is 130Fr year 2004.

I Try 6L0 959 537 : not working. (come from an Ibiza too). This one works without the module. (3 wire connected to the Big yellow connector (2 on it, 1 is Grounded)

This is the culprit, on the T41, cable are missing, we need to find how to manage cabling.

you must know there's 2 versions of command without the little module at the Bottom of the steering Wheel.

The 5P0 959 537 , 4 wires (Orange, Blue, Brown and Grey) with BACKLIGHT (come from Leon 1M)
The 6L0 959 537 , 3 wires (Orange, Blue, Brown) without backlight (come from Ibiza 6L (1.4 TDi)

I show with picture there's only 2 cable, because ONE CABLE with the airbag harness is common
(probably 12v or ground, i'm not sure).

i suppose perhaps there's, like the door, a lin-bus version (Ibiza 6L) and a can-bus version, (like Leon
i suppose).

I forget the possibility to put the 5P0 959 537 because the clockspring only have 6 internal track (2 for airbag, 2 for horn, 2 for multifunction) and you need to change it to wire the 4 wires version (5P0 959 537) and new airbag harness and connector.

If someone can give some information and confirm this fact and how to wire the missing cable, it will be great.
