Steering wheel volume control question

[galaxyg]

For the 6 months I've had the Z, I'd come to the conclusion that the controls on the steering wheel's left hand side only were to do with the bluetooth phone stuff and would not control the CD player at all. Given that they did nothing.

However today - I'd nudged them by mistake whilst going around a bend and what do you know, the CD moved on to the next track. The volume control also worked.

When I pulled up later onto the drive I tested this again and nothing at all. Some experimentation on the driveway showed me that both the CD track and volume controls only work when the steering wheel is at any other angle than straight or nearly straight. 

Is this normal?

Definitely not! I'd be taking the wheel off and checking the electrical connections as a starter.

Thanks. I'd have to get someone to look at that. My hands-on skills are not good at all.

loose wiring! The volume and track selection flickers should work for radio and cd, only the phone pickup and hang up are exclusively bluetooth
