XXX I have no responsibility if you are going to do this mod. don't try this if you do not feel comfortable working on air bags. XXX

I installed a manual Gen2 steering wheel in my Gen1 997 Turbo.
Managed to get the horn working with the following.

From the rear of the connector, pop off the yellow cover.
Cut top row black wires as shown below.
Join wire 1 with a crimp connector and self tap screw into the steering wheel.
Wire 2 extended connected onto the rear of the air bag with a spade connector.

Wire 1 horn works with ignition / engine running.
Wire 2 horn works with ingnition off, key removed.





 
Good job :thumb:

I really like this steering wheel and considering doing the same on my C2S, did you buy the wheel and airbag direct from Porsche? Seems to be the best price, cheaper that D911!

Paid £550 for the wheel, bargain! Feels great, getting the gaiter and arm rest covered in alcantara to match.
Thanks.
 
Nic job👍👍👍

Quick question on this. Having the same issue with mine after a gen II wheel swap.

Followed the instructions but it's still not working. Did you have a multi function wheel before swapping by any chance?
 
Hi
No, mine had no steering controls.

Thanks for the super quick response.

In that case I'll keep trying.

Guess you did cut wires 1&2 to extend.
