M3 Steering Wheel Installed- Paddles NOT Working!

I just want to confirm what's the correct way to do this

Can someone confirm that all of this splicing, etc. is not necessary when replacing a non-paddle M-Sport steering wheel on an E90 with an M3 DCT paddle steering wheel, AND using the Burger wiring kit?

Hello,

Sorry to revive an old thread, but I registered just to ask this... I bought the original M3 paddles for my 2009 pre-LCI E92 335i with DCT, since others have gotten them to work so easily. The installation was easy, but they did not work.

My car still has the SSG paddles as it's pre-LCI, but only with DCT gearbox instead of Steptronic. To my understanding the paddles shouldn't even need any resistors or rewiring since the car is pre LCI. Does anybody have any ideas? Thank you.

What are the pins currently set too on the M3 paddles you installed? on the plug side of the paddle shift module.

The pins are currently in the default position which the paddles came in, I didn't change them. But shouldn't at least the other side of the paddles be working without rewiring?

So just for the clarity here, the upshift side requires different resistors than the downshift side? I’ll need 1 6.2k resistor, 1 0.3k resistor, 1 1.18k resistor, and 1 4.99k resistor?
