Pin #2 and #4 from the slip ring actually go to #10 and ground respectively: the problem I have with that diagram he posted is that the pin line out is different than ours. So it may not correspond... But it makes me think that the way it's wired depends on whether the paddles are switch or resistance where one single pin carries both up and down.

Hi there, to your question if you do not have heated steering wheel you cannot turn ON the option simply by swapping with a heated wheel. It requires some extra wiring and coding. Looking at all the people having hard time trouble even getting the pedals too work I can't even vouch if they would work.

The steering itself will fit. But if you want to enable any features like pedals, heated wheel etc.. then you have to be more precise.

I haven't done it myself so I can't say for sure. But since you will purchase a new wheel with heated option, I don't see a reason why it should not.

Bringing this old thread up to see if anyone solved the paddle shift retrofit. Seems that some coding in addition. To wiring is needed. It appears that the paddle signals are a pass through directly to the transmission. (Not re transmitted as CAN signals) I have installed them on my 4/11 build date 2012 x35i. I have the sport package but it did not work as other have been so lucky to have. I'm the steering wheel is also a heated M and I am close to a heated steering wheel retrofit. I'll post the DIY once complete.

Hopefully, this gets figured out. I would love to get the heated m steering wheel.

Paddle shift Retrofit success (partial)
So after spending $30 looking at BMW WDS and a day looking at 100 schematics I realized that I did not even need a retrofit harness for my 4/2011 (MY 2012) build E70 X35i. I can verify as the OP that the paddle shifts works on my LCI and without any coding.
Now the devil is in the details and I am still not sure how the OPs DCT paddles worked as they are completely different than the paddles for the non-M E70. I chalk it up to the myriad of configurations for wiring and the mechatronics pin out even within a LCI model. I think the OPs mech module uses pin 4 and 5 of the transmission with a pulse to ground instead of the usual resistance to pin 10. (the orange pigtail harness in the picture has the needed resistors) In addition as stated on another post I have also figured out the heated steering retrofit for the E70. I will post a DIY for both once I tackle and complete them.

Paddle shifters work like a charm. In drive they go to manual momentarily and with the console lever in D/S they become full manual controls.

Otherwise it could be as simple as grounding pin 4 of x1880 connector on the back of the szl module and running a wire straight to pin 10 at the transmission connector (under the car). You seem to have the resistance based paddles.

I'm planning to do a DIY in a couple of days. Anyways you will need a coil spring cartridge, a mystery connector (61136954518 - order this now hard to find and lead times), the heated steering with the included heater control, some wires, an optional relay and a couple hours of patience. It's an easy job especially with a DIY.

Honestly the paddles are not that great with the 8 speed - too much shifting. They look cool, and the tri-stitching does look much better so not all is lost if you buy one and install it, and the paddles aren't functional. |
