Discussion: F1 Gearbox, Smart 451 '13

Originally Written by ciccio84

Hi friends, I mounted the steering wheel with paddle F1 on a Smart 451 mhd 2013 not fitted originally, everything works correctly but the F1 gearbox no.
on the internet I read that you have to make a procedure with a tool to activate this option for a code and from a friend I heard that you should reverse the wires,can someone give me a hand if you already know this procedure?

Hello,
from what I know the signal of the exchange browse to the horn, then I have to just enable with the diagnosis (I don't know if vag-com or other honestly, never made smart yet..) but at 100% the procedure is this.
If you have difficulty make it safely to the smart saw that is an accessory that is appropriate.
Let us know if you solve and how

Around I read that there are interfaces, mb star and someone does this...

those cards are for models prior to the second series, since this one you have mentioned is a recent, you do not need

No I understand what you mean thou.
I speak with certainty of the interface from the mV star that would be the diagnosis official Mercedes I have seen for sale on some chinese website.

ah.. I knew that meant the compatibility tab to change the palette.. sorry I got it wrong
I do not know that diagnosis anyway, I don't know what to say.. I would trust more on the generic as the delphi that good or evil done their dirty work

You say that delphi does this work?I know that makes him Leonardo...

Denoto that you know more you than me on these cars.. why did you ask me if you know?
All the info that I listed I have only read and I have no experience in the matter, I have the most experience on the fiat/alfa/lancia.. these never made unfortunately.. sorry
