The schematics don't show that.
They show that the steering angle sensor is part of that think you plug the steering wheel into on the steering column.
It remains part of the column when you remove the steering wheel,... and as such,.. shouldn't have been affected by a wheel swap. For sure when I swapped my wheel 2 years ago I didn't have to calibrate anything.
Can it even be done with a Durametirc Enthusiast?

For you guys that are wondering if the new 991 steering wheels will work on our 997s the answer is plug and play without the steering wheel controls and on mine an 09' the horn works as well. I have this same wheel in my other vehicles and I like it.

On my 09' I bolted it right in and the horn worked. I didn't change anything.

I just bought the steering wheel and the Round airbag. The steering wheel that I bought had been reworked by one of the steering wheels guys so it is fatter and flat bottom with perforated leather on sides. Both were 1500 and I put it on myself.

You need to find one out of a manual car. Cayman GTS, GT4 or a 911. 991.2 is what mine came out of according to who I bought it off of. You can get them on Ebay as well. The pdk ones have holes in the back section for the paddles, you can't use those.

Horn Issue - 997.2 sports wheel in 997.2
Hey folks! I just replaced the triangle airbag multifunction wheel in my 997.1 with the 997.2 GTS wheel without multifunction. The install went fine but now the new wheel and airbag is in, the horn sounds constantly when I turn the ignition on. Any ideas? Did I put the wiring in incorrectly? Do I need the newer control module that goes inside the steering column? Thanks!
