OBC 4th stalk patch harness description?

[drem914]

I was provided a 4th stalk by my mechanic to use for an OBC hack.

It has the factory wires and plug still connected to it.

I wanted to know if there is a thread on this board that shows the parts and wiring required to continue the patch into the OBC.

I have already had the OBC turned on in the car but until I hook in the stalk or a switch it will not display.

I would like to do the final connect over the Christmas holiday so I want to get all the parts lined up before hand.

A couple of other questions:

1. Can the 4th stalk just be bolted into place or do I need to replace the entire stalk cluster?

2. It seem like the switch version of the hack has one less connection (4) than the stalk connection (5) is that correct?

Any guidance would be appreciated.

1. I've got the harness assembly.

2. I've got the connections portion.

3. I think I will be following the "non removal of steering wheel" version from LowFlyR though.

Thanks, I think I am finally piecing the process all together.
