you more than likely have a wire pulling out of the plug in on the steering colum. on mine there was a blue box that had a wire pulling out so i just made a extension to sovle the problem

its on the left side of the steering colum when your setting in the seat you have to remove the cover and it should be right about where your steering coloum pivots up and down
