Default Smart Wheel

Guess this goes in the Interior category. My coach started acting very strange, the wipers would come on by themselves, the cruise control would cut off, etc. All things that happen thru the SmartWheel. Newell knew immediately what it was and they shipped me the "clocksping" papertape (coiled copper wiring) that sits UNDER the steering wheel.

Apparrently it's from a Chevrolet pickup and it was nearly $500 from Newell for basically a roll of brown paper with two flat copper "wires" glued to it.

I pulled the steering wheel, after making some centering marks, and replaced the "clockspring." All the gremlins left. Of course, my centering marks were off and the wheel had to come off again, but NBD.
