2005 Mercedes C220 CDI
Dynavin PLEASE HELP no steering wheel controls

Hello I am newbie, I installed a dynavin MBC (windows ce) for my 2005 mercedes c220 (w203). Everything works perfect but I don't have steering wheel controls that I had on my cd20.

There are 2 twisted cables coming from the steering control adaptor that say TX CAN & RX CAN that I did not connect could that be the reason ??? But I couldn't find anywhere to connect it, I'll put some photos on shortly.

Than I found a website called connects2 I asked them if the was a lead I could buy to connect my steering wheel controls they told me to buy a steering adaptor and a china patch lead,but don't know where to connect KEY 1 KEY 2 GND wires on patch lead, dynavin say this lead and adapter won't work and only the original will work.

I have the original but maybe I connect it wrong or because I didn't connect TX CAN & RX CAN wires I'm clueless help !!!!

Whats the status?

I did 1 of these back in the day, but the graphics and the GUI were on the lower end side, so out it came. Also the WIFI and Bluetooth were unreliable.

Steering wheel controls are over CAN, I don;t know if the TX/RX are chinglish for can hi, can lo, which would be the brown/red and brown respectively. wouldnt hurt the vehicle or network if you tried to hook them up and it doesnt work
