Required Tool(s)

7/16”, 10mm wrench
Phillips head screwdriver

Parts List

To begin, make sure the vehicle is in park, on level ground and the parking brake is engaged.

Slide the driver’s seat forward and remove the battery cover. Using a 10mm wrench, disconnect the negative battery cable from the battery.

Open the fuse box cover in the dash by pulling up on the release handle.

Install the 4 included u-nuts by sliding them into place in the circled locations. The threaded portion should be facing downward.

Remove the PCM cover. Place the gasket between the PCM and bracket. Secure the PCM using the 4 flathead bolts and a Phillips head screwdriver. Run the battery cables through the bracket and PCM. Attach them to the PCM battery posts using a 7/16” wrench.

Route the positive cable to positive battery post (circled) and the negative cable to the negative post (boxed). Attach them to the posts using a 10mm wrench.

Run the ethernet cable through one of the side slots and plug in the straight connector to the ethernet port (step 4). Use the four included ¼”-20 bolts and washers to install the PCM into the car utilizing the u-nuts and a 7/16” wrench.

Remove the steering wheel center cap by pulling outward and disengaging the three tabs (circled). Remove the zip tie holding down the OEM wiring (arrowed).

With a 10mm wrench, install the zip tie tab onto the threaded hole right of the steering wheel nut using the included M6 bolt and washer. Secure the OEM wiring to it keeping it as far from the steering wheel locking tabs as possible (circled in step 9).

Feed the ethernet cable down into the dash (step 8) and towards the steering column. Turn the steering wheel to allow access to the wire passthrough and feed the 90° connector into the back of the wheel. Ensure 2 full coils have been fed into the steering wheel.

Plug the 90° connector into the controller and install it in place of the stock steering wheel cap. Ensure that the coiled section of the ethernet cable does not interfere with the steering wheel or pedals. Secure loose and hanging wires with zip ties and turn wheel from lock-to-lock to ensure there is no binding.

Reconnect the negative battery cable to the battery and replace the battery cover panel.
