Seat Ateca Multifunction Steering Wheel Issue

I'm having trouble with the multifunction steering wheel on my 2020 Seat Ateca with a Gasoline engine, it has about 73000 km on it. It just stopped working. I ran diagnostics and got an error. I think it's a bad cable in the steering wheel. Has anyone else run into this?

I had something similar happen with my Ateca, though I don't recall the error code. The steering controls just quit. Did you check the error memory? What code did it throw?

I used an OBD scanner and got an error related to the multifunction steering in the steering column control module. Was that what you saw? Did you have to replace the whole steering column?

That error code sounds right. I didn't replace the whole steering column. The shop found a bad cable connection inside the steering wheel. I'd suggest getting the steering controls checked at a workshop.

Took the Ateca to the workshop. It was a defective cable connection within the steering wheel, just as we thought. They replaced the wiring, and it's working perfectly now. Cost me 95€, which seems fair. Thanks for the help!
