This is all I can get now the disc messed up again and I cannot see the legend.
I also had to rotate them so if it is really hard to see I will post it sideways as well.

Ok here we go again with the new info. Sorry its sideways but looks the best that way. They both run through the steering wheel module maybe that is where the problem is.

You can replace it but the Dealer will need to download software to make it work.

So its your call you might just want to have them do it since they need to do the software anyways.

Could you atleast make out things on the diagram?

I would try to find an OEM set cheap and install them and when it is at the Dealer have them download the software to turn the function on.

News Flash!!!!!!!!!!Got in my, car turned on the carand BAM!!!!!Everything works find...I know....???????Well ,I got home and repeated what I did before I got into the car and it worked again...Here is the story and I'minterested in hearing what you think is going on. Everytime I start my car I press the brake pedal and start the car. This time it was so cold that I needed the heater to work right away, so instead of pressing the brake I stepped on the gas really hard like three times and then I saw the controls on my sterring wheel turn on and yes everything worked perfectly now at this time I'm thinking is just a miracle, But this is when it gets interesting, I tried the same thing this morning and guess what? YES it worked. Bad Battery ?

Not sure maybe but I doubt a low battery would do that I would think it would show up when you cranked the car to start.

That makes total sence. Well at this point I guess I just roll with it. Well I got the lights and guess what? they don't work at allI'm staring to think that I have a major electrical problem. I pulled on the highlights leverand nothing brother.[]Did you see my comment about me installing a new ( used) original CD player since it was missing when I got the car, Would this have anything to do with it?

Oh ok you mean the car was messing up again!! LOL

If you put a different radio from another car yes it might be affecting it.
