Default Steering wheel adjustment control switch

Hi All

Just want to see what you all think of this.I have found that over the weekend the little control on the lefthand side of the Steering wheel column has stopped working when it comes to moving the wheel up…..
Works fine in/out and down but just not up. I can hear the click when I move the control.
When I use the presents controls on the door it moves in all directions fine.
…anyone have any tips …was thinking it could be the control switch itself needing replacing
But has anyone else had this prob before

Thanks for the help all

Well, hello mate, I never had a problem with it.
But if the preset function operates column up then gear is fine, so I would start from switch.

Have toy git anybodies a8 owner around you so you could just test their switch??

Couldn't find any online but surely A8 Parts boys will have it.

Are you capable of taking switch out and possibly taking it apart??

More likely a little button which is soldered to pcb has failed.

Spare buttons not that difficult to find so if it's repairable and you are not confident about soldering then you could send that over to me and I will find the button and solder it for you, free
