Thank you so much for your video. I do not agree with the people that say it is not useful. I did my retrofit exclusively following your video and it has worked fine for me. Thank you so much for your effort :)
It works if you press I/O but first the key must be tuned to 1 or 2. The green LED with the cruise control symbol on will light up. But cruise control can't be active before speed is > 30 Km/h It' works perfect on my E46 and I just love it :)
I use the following words in my search on google to get the installation manual. "bmw e46 mfl retrofit pdf" Im not sure, but it seems like you can only install it models from 2001 to 2005 E46. If you have an older model you would probably need a new throttle body also. At least for the gas engines. For diesel engines from 1998 to 2000 it might work, im not sure.
Just fixed everything. The cruise works perfectly. And I changed the throttle body too :) Lastly I had problem with wrong position of clutch pedal switch - stay open when the pedal is at rest. But I found the right position finally :)
Yes the pin 37 is empty. So if yours isn't better double check if you have found the right pin in the connector. The pin is only with cable in E46's with installed cruise control. Pin numbers can be seen on the buttom part of the black plastic connector
Nice work, clean and thorough! Very nice indeed. Going to install the multiwheel to my E46 soon as well. Been driving without buttons for like 2 years, lol. :)
Yes you can make the cruise control on a 99 as well. But the connectors in the DDE will be different and the blue cable must be connected to another pin. It's described in the official BMW retrofit sport wheel manual you can download everywhere
@@kwstasfitness It changes link / location all the time. Therefore I suggest to use Google using search words "mfl e46 pdf retrofit". Right now its located here: pl.etk.club/eba_docs/284en.pdf
Actually I went to school for auto mechanic many years ago, but chose something different later in my life :-) Still haven't forgotten the basics about cars
Hi, The plastic insulation for the connectors is contained in the BMW wiring harness kit you will need from BMW. No. 61 12 0 016 012 Kit contains 3 wires with sleeves, male and female connectors and sleves for old and new versions to the DDE connector. Just all what you need.
You should double check that you cut and connected to the right cables at the light switch module. Two of the cables are VERY close in their colors. I almost cut the wrong cable because the grey and magenta colors are so close to each other. (I have color vision, but still very hard to locate right colors)
Would you mind sharing that PDF of the pinouts. The link no longer works. I’d greatly appreciate it. Great video! I have an E46 323i 1999. I could follow your video, but I’d love to know which wires I’m cutting. Thanks!
Thnx a lot I'll check that.I just finished wiring an Amp and sub its louder than I thought :) My next task is to do a Interior&Exteriot door handle illumination.
To be able to control the radio, all you need to do is push in the two connectors behind the airbag. Well actually one is for the LED light in the buttons on the steering wheel and the other connector is for all the buttons on the steering wheel. You don't have to connect anything else to control the radio (I asume you use the OEM BMW radio)
Great DIY, thank you! I have done everything on my E46 318d sedan from 02/2002. The cruise control light turns on, on my dashboard when i press the O/I button, but unfortunately it doesn't work. Can you please give me some advice? Thank you
I remember watching this video and saying damn thats too much work but now after watching it again it aint that much work to be honest i might do it to my E46 itll be better for long drives :D Edit: Just ordered the retrofit cables and already bought a multifunction wheel so just waiting for the part to come
Hi, great video, detailed explanation. Thanks :) I have all the parts "collected", so I'll be doing the installation soon. I would only like to know if there is a possibility for throttle/clutch damage by cutting those wires? What are they doing acctualy, do you know how are they related with the throttle and clutch pedal?
Yes. That was my first change. I think with this video as help you can manage it in 1-2 hours. Just make sure you get the official BMW pdf manual for this job. Can be found using Google. You need to know exactly which wires to cut
wow thats so easy to do in my car .. but .. about that part when u connect the blue wire to the white wire in the pin 37 in the 58 connector ..........is the pin37 empty ?? is that white wire exist and you cut it ? or.. u just connect that wire to the empty 37 pin in connector ???

Hi, nice job!. I have a question if I may.. Do you know if the cables in the connectors go in different positions in a right hand drive car?? I mean cables in pins 10, 9 and 8 I followed all the instruction but did not work. I the only difference with my car is that the steering wheel is in the right side. I would appreciate any help. Thanks
The wirering is the same on RHD cars, so maybe double check the cable colors. The colors are VERY close to each other. White and grey, blue and magenta,....I almost chose the wrong color wires because they look so similar
Got kit BMW 61 012 0 016 012 Connector on the wire doesn't fit to DDE (M47TU) The shape of the socket in white DDE connector doesn't match to the connector on the end of the wire (blue or black) These connectors have "notch" on one corner for proper orientation (and it match to the green connector under steering wheel) But in DDE connector, there is no "notch", instead of that, one corner has kind of "cutout"

awaken77 I have the same problem. How Did you solve it ?
You have probably connected it to the wrong wires on Plug X12. The colors are VERY close to each other. I almost picked the wrong color wires my self because they match so close. I think Violet and Blue and Grey looks the same.
it sounds like the heat shield on you exhaust has gotten lose. Worse is if the catalytic converter has broken inside and you will have to replace it . Of cause I can't be 100% sure, but so it sounds to me
Hello, excellent job!. May I ask you something? I bought a e39 1999 with a multi functional steering wheel, but the abs module was not working so I could not check the cruise control. The thing is that the car does not have cruise control, just the steering wheel but the buttons are not connected. How do I know if I can do this retrofit on my car, because I thought I need the cruise control unit and all the controls for the engine. Thank you very much
Super Arbeit ! Arbeite bei BMW wir machen das auch nicht besser. Very good Job, i am working at BMW and we do it not better. Many Greetings from Germany and i wish everybody a nice day. Please excuse my bad English.

@@mondeo984 i've done it, but my "plug noses" where "mirrored", so it didnt fit in der DDE. i really had to use sandpaper to make them fit!! i even went to BMW in my city but even they didnt know. :D thanks for the video.
" This Video does not not cover M47 and engines before 2001/9" so i have the "BMW 3 Sedan (E46) 320 d Diesel (150 cv / 110 kW M47 D20 (204D4) 2001-2005) " and that wont work? what's the difference from yours to mine ?
Yes I tried it out before I recorded the last part Im not sure you can install the stearing wheel onto a 99'. Its because this airbag uses a 2 stage airbag unit and your 99 has only a 1 stage.
The short A7-A8 cablee is only needed to fit in the X60002 connector. You will only have to use one of the two short cables, either the blue or the black depending on the type of connector you have
@@mondeo984 X60002..? Is that the white block with pin 37? Do I plug one of those in, then solder it to the long blue cable coming through the firewall?
Why did you have to tap into the wire harness? I did this on my 03 e46 and I only had to remove my old wheel and plug the new sport wheel in. Just curious.
i own a 2000 bmw e46 328i and i have the old three wheel spoke with functions : volume up/down telephone,cruise control. can i do the change directly to this facelift wheel or i need the wire kit to make it? what i want to know is if it is plug and play or do i need to make the modifications like you did. thanks .

What an orginal piece of work. You motivated me for doing it on my 2005 model 318i. I am back in UAE so I can't say if I can buy this facelift steering. (we don't have ebay yet!).. I didn't skipped a single part of video but I think you never showed the main cruise control module getting connected. Lastly mine is Gasoline, while your model seems Diesel, would that make difference? I mean where can I find DDE equivalent. (sorry for a stupid question)
First you activate the Cruise Control on the I/O button. Then you just speed the car with the pedal to what you prefer and press the + button to hold the speed.
Im thinking to buy 2002 330i but that car has a simple stearing and on left lever R and L is written along bc.. does that means that car is without cruise control?? Can anyone guide plz??
Hello mondeo, can you please tell me did you "lose" radio in those half hour with no battery connected...? I'm afraid I can't find my radio code... -.-
very well done, this would of helped me a bit a week ago when i did mine. Thanks anyway is was great to watch the whole video just for fun. :) subscribed
ALL buttons work. Engaging cruise control, up/down volume on radio, shifting radio station or track on CD, voice control if car if fitted with that. And no coding needed it just works.
Hi Mondeo984, In your video from about 14:36 until 16:10 you are plugging the cable connectors into some black plastic housings. What are the black plastic housings called and where can I get them from? They did not come with the steering wheel that I ordered from ebay (it was second hand). Thanks in advance
Hi, pins on X10170 plug(under steering wheel) and pin on plug X60002(DDE) are they all same type??? Maybe you know how they are called? Where i can find to buy those pins in free?? Thank you very much!

sir please my car is e46, 325i, 2001 and it doesn't have the cruise control, do you think I can buy a wheel with cruse control botton and install this in my car? Please let me know sir. Thank you
This is because there are two different type of mating connectors. So if the one does not fit, you have to use the extension with the other type. As far as I remember it's the size of the connector that isn't the same
they look the same at first sight, but terminal end connector for DDE M47TU (blue short wire from the kit) is slightly bigger in square section (but less than 1/2 mm)

A 320d Diesel does not have any actuator. It uses only injectors which is controlled by the OBD. So when you fitted the cable it just works

If you have an older model you would probably need a new throttle body also. At

What an orginal piece of work. You motivated me for doing it on my 2005 model 318i. I am back in UAE so I can't say if I can buy this facelift steering. (we don't have ebay yet!)..
I didn't skipped a single part of video but I think you never showed the main cruise control module getting connected. Lastly mine is Gasoline, while your model seems Diesel, would that make difference? I mean where can I find DDE equivalent. (sorry for a stupid question)
First you activate the Cruise Control on the I/O button. Then you just speed the car with the pedal to what you prefer and press the + button to hold the speed.
where to get the A8 Short Cable or is it already there?
can you explain what is each wire because i have no that connector and that wires colors on my e39. thank you
Im thinking to buy 2002 330i but that car has a simple stearing and on left lever R and L is written along bc.. does that means that car is without cruise control?? Can anyone guide plz??
Hello mondeo, can you please tell me did you "lose" radio in those half hour with no battery connected...? I'm afraid I can't find my radio code... -.-
very well done, this would of helped me a bit a week ago when i did mine. Thanks anyway is was great to watch the whole video just for fun. :) subscribed
help. dme pin connector indentification for cruise control 2004 316ti n46
Perfect job, I've done the same two years...
Tnx for video!!!
Could you post what is the part number of the steering wheel please?
Do the rest of the buttons work too or just cruise control?
What do the rest of the buttons do? Thankyou
ALL buttons work. Engaging cruise control, up/down volume on radio, shifting radio station or track on CD, voice control if car if fitted with that. And no coding needed it just works.
Would love to get the cruise control on my E46, but seems to be to much work for me :(
I must order that MFL adapter, or i can do with another wires too?
Price is so low that its not worth trying alternatives. Use the OEM set
is there any contact between the two wires i conect for light and bottons control? thank you again?
Hei! Vet du om dette vil virke på e46 2001 med m43b19 motor? Kan ikke finne noe info om hva jeg må gjøre for å eftermontere med min motor på nettet.
very good :)
how white light gets in quadrant?
new to BMW... tried using google but couldnt get much info, so asking here. will i be able to apply this mod on my 1998 318i E46 ? thx
Hi Mondeo984,
In your video from about 14:36 until 16:10 you are plugging the cable connectors into some black plastic housings. What are the black plastic housings called and where can I get them from? They did not come with the steering wheel that I ordered from ebay (it was second hand).
Thanks in advance
MFL = Multifunktionslenkrad (german) or Multi function steering wheel
I have a 318d 2002, the dde box is not same as yours
my cruise is working but not my radio buttons. Left side. What may i have done wrong?
check the two connectors comming from the switch panel in the steering wheel
Bitte sagen Sie mir auf einem BMW E39 525 2001 Diesel kann auch multipul angeschlossen werden ???
hi,does this all work on a e46 1999 320D sedan?
Hi, pins on X10170 plug(under steering wheel) and pin on plug X60002(DDE) are they all same type??? Maybe you know how they are called? Where i can find to buy those pins in free?? Thank you very much!
Jeg har lige købt min første E46 1998, med et rat som det du dengang monterede i videoen her, fantastisk video iøvrigt, men mit fart pilot virker ikke, sikkert grundet at dette ikke er udført men man bare har skiftet rat, kan det lade sig gøre i min? jeg må have det 40pin stik du nævner.
Du kan se om din motor er omfattet.

Som udgangspunkt er alle dieselmotorer. Det drejer som om de har elektrisk gasspjæld.
@@mondeo984 Det er så vidt jeg har læst mig frem til en M52 (328i).
Tak for dit link, jeg synes det virker en anelse uoverskueligt, men jeg må prøve at se din video en gang til :)
@@filmfreaken Manualen og videoen så skulle du kunne se hvad der skal laves. Pas på med farverne på ledningerne, en grå og hvid har næsten samme farve
can we put cruise control on bmw 316i 2002 ?
sir please my car is e46, 325i, 2001 and it doesn't have the cruise control, do you think I can buy a wheel with cruse control botton and install this in my car?
Please let me know sir.
Thank you
I dont understand why this A8 short cable needed, and why not put A7 (blue) straight to pin 37 in DDE connector?
This is because there are two different type of mating connectors. So if the one does not fit, you have to use the extension with the other type. As far as I remember it's the size of the connector that isn't the same
they look the same at first sight, but terminal end connector for DDE M47TU (blue short wire from the kit) is slightly bigger in square section (but less than 1/2 mm)
hello, just connected my e46 multifunction steering wheel retrofit and the volume control works alright but the cruise control does not work any solutions thanks
I think you may have chosen the wrong color wires. Some of them are extremely close.....magenta, blue and white, grey looks almost the same
I understand you but the volume controls works alright well i have to check it again please what colors again. thanks
You need to cut the VI/GE and the WS/RT/GE wires
Sorry that TH-cam is blocking the link to the MFL stearing wheel manual, but its easy to find using Google
