Hey all hope you're all having a chaotic day *g*....

My shop recently installed an aftermarket Panasonic Cd player in this guys car...it was a 1996 Olsmobile Aurora, fully loaded...

Well it works fine, but now the climate controls on his steering wheel no longer work! WTF!?!?!

basically here's the questions...Does the factory Head unit, have the climate controls from the steering wheel controls go into it? if so, is there a way to by-pass it so we cna get the Steering wheel controls to work?

Thanx in advance....

Go back and re-install the OEM head unit for verification that the HU is infact the problem. If so, you will need to piggyback the system so that you have the original HU somewhere in the car while having the Panasonic CD player in the dash.
