My contacts were so black ,I cleaned them but that wasn’t the problem ,there was a broken blue wire which I soldered back together ,thanks to your video I fixed it though ,I’m really happy many thanks Mike 😃😃
Hi Mike, great job fixing the issue. I'm glad you were able to identify that the blue wire was broken and repaired it. I'm happy that the video helped with the disassembly process. I was scared myself just to tear it apart - all the videos shown wheel removal method only. Martin
Man you are GREAT! Because of you and your video I saved 250€!!! Thanks a lot! My cruise control didn't work (skoda octavia mkII) and after cleaning just worked! Amazing! Another big fan of yours!
Hey, that's so great to hear! I hoped it will help at least couple of people to save some money and frustration about removing the whole wheel. Glad it helped you as well. P.S. It's been working in my car for about a year now, so looks like a good stable solution :-)
@@flagrantYT yes, it did! You saved me a heap of travelling plus an unknown bill that I couldn't possibly have been able to verify if it was legitimate or not. Many, many thanks!
@@maxkagi1297 Oh, that's so great to hear! That was the main reason why I did record the video - to help at least one guy. All the videos out there were suggesting to remove the steering wheel in order to remove and clean the lever. Since I tried this simple method, I wanted to share it and encourage to try it as well. I'm so so happy to save you some time and money. Take care!
Great video, i had my Set button stuck and not operating for a loong time (VW Passat CC) and i was looking around for replacements or fixes, and removing airbag horrified me. I went on to try this fix, i got my plastic tools out, started going at it and I think my Control lever was so afraid I would actually succeed in opening it, and the button jumped out and works flawlessly now :D Either way, great guide and if i wanted, couldve fixed it your way, love it! Kudos
I would suggest that any contact cleaning spray will do the work. I think I used WD-40, but probably there are better solutions for this job. As it's only graphite powder, that is on top of the contacts, no special chemical solution is required. If you have isopropyl alcohol, or any other alcohol-based cleaner, I think you're fine with it as well. Let us know if it helped :-)

thanks man, it worked :)
That's so great to hear, Viktor! Glad it helped you. Mine's still working for more than a year now 🙂
What do you use for cleaning?
I would suggest that any contact cleaning spray will do the work. I think I used WD-40, but probably there are better solutions for this job. As it's only graphite powder, that is on top of the contacts, no special chemical solution is required. If you have isopropyl alcohol, or any other alcohol-based cleaner, I think you're fine with it as well. Let us know if it helped :-)
@@flagrantYT Unfortunately it did not work. Anyway thank you very much for your answer. :)
I used Isopropyl alcohol to clean contacts but I think any electrical contact cleaning solution would do the job.
I am going to try this on my VW shuttle T5.1 2010. I think it’s the same CC Stalk.
@@COELHO8581did it work out? Hi ! Did you hade the code P1569 in the beginning? Mine shows code p1569
Vyčistil a stále nefunguje/ I cleaned it but still doesn't work😢
Damn it, mine doesn't have a white connector for some reason. Just the wires onto the pins
are you sure it's the same car model? Octavia 2, model before the facelift, year 2004~2006?
