Not doubting your wrenching skills but you have everything hooked up right, correct?

Dude its two wires.

The way the hub is made, it looks like it has a brass contact plate built into the back covered in dielectric grease to make contact with ? in the column. As far as I can tell, the horns are powered under the hood and all I am doing is contacting the ground to the column to close the circuit and power the horns.
The hub does not seat flush and is backed up by the plastic assembly for the turn signals and wipers, etc. The clock-spring assembly and cruise control had to be removed. It also would not fit with the plastic-reset piece that automatically resets your signals when activated.
In speaking with a few other members that have done this mod, they had no problem at all, but with a different hub.

I've had the damn thing on and off 9 times now trying to troubleshoot the simplest circuit in the car. All I can come up with is that the hub will not work on an 06'.

What did you touch during the install?

The stock 02 sensors are really delicate. Placing them on the ground too roughly can destroy them...it's ridiculous.

Check all this stuff.

thanks steve, im almost sure its either the front 02 sensor or the maf needs to be cleaned. Does anyone know the price of a new 02 sensor just incase i need to run out and buy one?
