SOURCE: 2003, 330Ci radio, navi buttons on the dash not functioning.

hello . ok first try disconecting the nave unit on the trunk if the radio comes up and the buttons work you have a bad nave unit (very common ) . other option look for radio fuse in glove box top open white tabs on top diconect the fuse and reconnect to see if it will restart the radio pannel if not replace the radio pannel .

SOURCE: steering radio control not functioning

as the car never had the radio control wheel in the first place you would have to make sure that the radio has the relevent wiring to connent to one , i think you might find you'll have to install a wiring loom that connects the radio to the wheel buttons

My 06 nissan altima has the steering wheel radio controls, but I want to buy a new double din touch screen sterio. So my question is; if I install a new sterio, will it affect or cause my steering wheel...

the steering controls are made for that specific make of radio so look for the same make touch screen , then check it is compliant with the steering controls

Why does the radio works on the wheel and not on the radio area ?

I need to disconnect the battery on my 2001 E46 325i and the bmw dealer has told me there is no code for the radio in this model...does anyone know if this is correct?

TURN OFF RADIO FIRST BEFORE DISCONNECTING THE NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE BUT.THATS NO GUARANTEE YOU WILL LOSE RADIO CODE I WOULD TRY TO USE A BACK UP MEMORY SAVER YOU PLUG IN THE CIGARETTE LIGHTER BUT NO GOOD IF CAR GOING TO BE DOWN LONG.TIME BECAUSE THE MEMORY SAVER BATTERY WILL GET WEAK YOURE IN TROUBLE.BMW WARNS IF YOU DISCONNECT BATTERY CABLES YOU WOULD LOSE HEATING COOLING CLIMATE CONTROL.YOU ALSO WILL LOSE FUNCTION TO WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND WASHER , CENTRAL LOCKING AND THEFT SYSTEM CONTROL.

CTS in dash navigation system

There is a company called PAC that specializes in modules like you describe - keeping the steering wheel controls functional with an aftermarket radio.

Click HERE to visit their site. You have to choose a compatible manufacturer. Basically - it is turning the steering wheel controls into a "remote" hidden in the dash.

CLICK HERE for the PAC installation guide for the 2006 CTS

For best results and compatibility, look for a shop in your area that carries PAC - it is a common manufacturer in the BIZ, and have them install it.

The simple answer to your question is YES as long as you use the module compatible for the brand of radio you are installing.
