Camry Sports Steering Wheel Paddle Shifters Late 2015 Altise

[Aussie Camry]

Hi Guys,

I recently found out I could add sports paddle shifters in my late 2015 Camry atise the plug is there and all the wiring from factory so I brought another wheel from a atara RZ swapped the controls as I was also after the voice command button which now works but the paddle shifters are not working even thou some people have there's working somehow. Would I need to take it to a Toyota dealership to enable the use of the paddle shifters ? I have called a few but as usual with dealerships they want you to book the car in.

I doubt that any dealership would be involved in your modification. You possibly would pay for a service advisor to say to you "we don't do that modification"  Have you searched through all the postings to find the same modification ? You mention you know of others having done this have you questioned them ?

I have spotted this... I know you don't need the references to swapping out the steering wheel but there is relevant information regarding your issue in here.

As described in this above post, have you tried to change gears via the new paddles with the shift lever in sport mode ?

Yes I put it into sport mode the shifter don't work have also tried the other method still nothing it's clearly a software issue were it might need to be enabled to work on some cars. I am woundering if the transmission module needs to be swapped out from the same car which was an RZ. Toyota used the same transmission on all camry's that's what I am being told by a Dealership technician he also thinks it must be to do with the software or replacing the trans module.
