Re: Philips R960 remote steering wheel controls for R8

If you are using 200 ohm range it is too small. You are expecting values of 390 ohm, 470 ohm and 820 ohm. You need to use greater scale like 2k ohm.

More recent version of steering wheel switches use 82 ohm, 120 ohm and 270 ohm values.

Resistance of the switches can be measured by ohmmeter, not voltmeter.

Re: Philips R960 remote steering wheel controls for R8

In case of Philips R760 and R770 sideway connector is used solely for clock-display since they do not have built in display. Steering wheel controls (2 pins) are part of ISO A block in which you have power connectors.
As far as I know Philips R860 share the same principle as R770.

Re: reset central locking Rover 25
