C4 Multifunction Steering Wheel Failure

My 2021 Citroen C4 (electric) with 41502 km is having issues. The multifunction steering wheel isn't working, and there's an error stored. Anyone seen this? I suspect a bad cable connection in the steering wheel, but I don't have the tools to check before a shop visit.

Steering wheel gremlins, eh? Sounds familiar! I've got a C4 too, and I had similar weirdness. Basically all the steering controls went bonkers. Horn, radio, cruise control… poof! Gone! Like a fuse blew in the Matrix. Did anything happen right before it went south? Like a hard turn or a jolt?

Thanks. No, nothing noteworthy happened right before. It just started one morning. What was your diagnosis and fix?

Right, so mine was very similar - just bam, dead one morning. I messed about with fuses and praying, but nada. Ended up taking it to a trusted workshop, who diagnosed a dodgy connection within the steering column itself. Apparently, it's not uncommon given how much those wires get flexed. Just take it to the garage, it's hardly worth the hassle of fixing it yourself.

Thanks for the advice. I took it to the workshop, and it was a defective cable connection in the steering wheel. The repair cost 95€.
