steering wheel controls not working

[LISANDRO]

Hello guys,
Recently my battery died and jump started it and then went to fully replace the battery with a new one but after doing so the steering wheel control buttons no longer work. I checked the fuse for the sccm and even replaced it and no luck. Any ideas what it can be?

Did you tell the BCM that you replaced the battery?

Not sure why that would effect the buttons but it could.

I did do that but had no luck on it unfortunately

Damn.

Perhaps something was damaged with the jump start?

How is that done? I'm not replacing a battery, but It sounds like something I should learn...

I believe either ForScan or dealership.

Give it some time. Pretty soon you’re going to need a PC to make toast!

This method seems to work. I have also read it will reset if the vehicle is off and locked with no load for 8 hours.

1. Get in vehicle, close doors
2. Turn on ignition (but don't start)
3. Wait for battery light to come up
4. Flash brights 5 times
5. Press and release brake 3 times
6. Battery symbol on dashboard should flash after 5-10 seconds

Can't wait to retire & go live off the grid..... I wish.
