Has any one ever changed these on a C5 for a second hand set? The auto lighting switch is not working and memsaab says "can you not fix it" lol
I have another C5 sitting here but on reading the haynes it says the switches can not be changed individually the whole switch head unit has to be replaced and re programed as it contains the steering wheel sensor etc.
Is it easy to reprogram? Any one done it and can give me a heads up? or will it be easier to just say " no I can't " lol

Re: C5 Light switch and wiper stalks
if you do need to program a different stalk/unit in you will require a LEXIA,
if you dont own one look in this link to find a member on here who does own one near you

Re: C5 Light switch and wiper stalks
You only need a lexia if it's got ESP (and probably hydractive 3+ on a C5) to program the angle sensor, otherwise it just plugs in. But, yes, the stalks and rotary connector are all one.
