Skoda Fabia Multifunction Steering Wheel Problem

I have a problem with my Skoda Fabia, build year 2013, with a diesel engine. It has only 22630 km on it. The multifunction steering wheel suddenly stopped working. I can't control anything from the steering wheel anymore. Could it be a sensor issue? Any ideas what might be wrong?

Sounds like a connectivity problem, maybe a loose wire. Have you checked the vehicle diagnostics for any stored error codes relating to the steering controls or a sensor issue?

I checked the error memory, and there's an error stored, but I'm not sure how to interpret it. Is a defective cable connection a common issue? Is it something I could fix myself, or should I just take it to a workshop?

Yes, a defective cable is a likely cause. It's like a chain where a single broken link renders the whole thing useless. Given the error stored in the memory, it's best to have it checked professionally. 95€ seems reasonable.

I went to the workshop, and they confirmed a defective cable connection in the steering wheel. The repair cost was 95€. Everything works now.
