The steering wheel, as a component that is constantly in contact during driving, is like “cold iron” in an environment of -10℃. Even if gloves are worn or a plush cover is added, there is still a risk of slipping and it cannot heat up quickly. For car owners who still have to hold a cold steering wheel in the cold winter, a heated steering wheel is by no means an “sentimental configuration”, but a necessity related to driving safety and dignity.

The steering wheel heating of the Audi Q3 F3 requires the replacement of the steering wheel assembly with heating function, including the steering wheel itself, the oil wire assembly (hairspring), and other components. After modification, the heating function can be controlled through the central control screen, and the heating status 1 will also be displayed on the dashboard. Although this original factory solution is more expensive, it has better security and compatibility.

Disassembly and assembly of core components

1,Replace the steering wheel that supports heating

Remove the original airbag → Replace the high-end oil wire assembly (with heated contacts) → install the heated steering wheel.

2,Line connection:

The power supply is taken from the cigarette lighter fuse (with double fuses for overload protection), the signal line is connected to the gateway module through the hairspring, and the ground wire is connected to the metal frame of the steering wheel

3,Programming and Function activation

Use ODIS engineer software coding to perform G85 calibration on the steering wheel
