Heated Steering wheel upgrade for 2010 GMC Yukon XL

[birdhunter]

Just added a heated steering wheel to my 2010 GMC Yukon XL. Purched the appropriate clock spring and wiring harness. All the steering wheel controls work, except the heated steering. The light does not even come on. Kept throwing the check engine light until I unplugged the heated steering underneath the the steering column. Any ideas? Is there a relay?

Hmm news to me and I added one too. My connectors a little to big so it doesn't like working. I also have had an airbag light on since then know what it for just it will get fixed eventually.

When I upgraded my 2008 Avalanche to include a heated steering while I bought the wiring harness as well and it turned out to be useless as there's a missing pin in the next portion of the harness.

I wired the green heated steering wheel into the accessory box to be on iginition and haven't had a problem since.

Did you just cut the wire from the harness and plug it into the accessory box?
Are you talking about the box left of the brake pedal?

Would you be able to send me a photo of where you placed the wire?

Where did you find the wheel? I've been looking for over a year. Out of stock

Car-part.com
This is a sight that lists used auto parts.
Found the heated steering wheel, steering column wiring hardness and clock spring for $125.

Yes I can take a photo tomorrow.

The box contains ground as well so I just used spade connectors

just needs the power wire connected, there is supposedly a brown wire down in the lower steering column area that needs to be connected to the heated wheel, you might have some luck looking on the gm upfitter guide or do as others and just connect it to accessory power (fused)

Should be down in the upfitter box. I added mine not to long ago, I still have to mess with my ground but it's there on Yukons

Make sure the 12v connector you choose is only hot with the key on. I picked one that was hot at all times and even with the heated steering wheel turned off it drained the battery overnight. Switched and no more drained battery

Does anyone know of more of a write-up on this? Any the parts required? Interested in adding a heated steering wheel to my ‘09 Tahoe LTZ.

Thanks! Called a dealer and looks like every single new steering wheel in the country was purchased and have been on backorder ever since with no ETA. So probably need to keep an eye out for a gently used wheel if I’m going to make the project happen.

I believe the part number I'd need is 22947767, which is out of stock literally everywhere, including Rockauto. When I checked car-part I only found one and I wasn't thrilled with the condition. Also don't want an Escalade wheel to get the wrong color backlights, which limits the search. I'm sure one will turn up eventually, not like these vehicles were ultra-rare.
