2015 ML 350 Steering Wheel Control Buttons
2015 ML 350 4 Matic -Just the other day the buttons on right side of wheel are not working after just over a year after purchase. Left side works for selecting category but right side (up/down & phone) aren't working. read several posts for cleaning goo but not replacing. A few posts show removal of center wheel involving disconnecting battery (airbag ) so on. Since moving to SW Fla the dealers gauge & give run around stock answers. Bought extended warranty bit seems to only cover major mechanicals. Any help appreciated

Either fixing or replacing implies:
1 - Battery disconnect
2 - Air Bag removal (see youtube videos)
3 - A Torx screwdriver, and perhaps give a try with electric contact cleaner once disconnected and try again, fingers crossed.
4 - otherwise, install a new one.
