2006 Chevrolet Silverado Questions & Answers
How to replace the switch on the lights in the steering wheel of a 2006 chevrolet silverado
Before you start replacing parts ,need a little more information . Maybe able to save you some time an money . Does the horn work when you push the horn button , does the air bag light stay lit in the instrument cluster ? The button lights for the bottons on the steering wheel are lit by the BCM - body control module . Interior Lamps Dimming
The second group includes lamps which may be dimmed. This group may use a combination of vacuum fluorescent (VF) illumination and incandescent lamps.
When the ignition switch is turned to the RUN position, the radio's vacuum fluorescent (VF) displays turn on at maximum brightness. When the park lamps are on, all incandescent back lighting turn on at the dimming level indicated by the I/P dimmer switch. At the same time all vacuum fluorescent (VF) displays dim to match the indicated dimming level. The panel dimmer switch potentiometer is an input to the BCM. When the driver selects a dimming setting by moving the I/P dimming switch potentiometer, all incandescent back lighting lamps are provided with a specific voltage. When the I/P dimmer switch is moved from MIN to MAX, all vacuum fluorescent (VF) displays, as well as all incandescent back lighting respond from minimum intensity to maximum brightness in response to the I/P dimmer switch.
The following switches and components have back lighting when the park lamps are on:
• The instrument panel cluster (IPC)
• Radio, front and rear
• Window and heated seat switches
• Garage door opener switch
• Selectable ride switch
• Roof beacon switch
• Power take off (PTO) switch

• Rear wheel steering mode select switch
• HVAC control assembly
• Headlamp and panel dimmer switch
• Transfer case shift control switch
• PSIR disable switch

Could be the clock spring inside the steering coulmn ,under the steering wheel if horn doesn't work ,air bag light lit etc...
I have silverado 2006. The engine will not turn
What about battery? Recharge or replace battery, try if it cranks. If not, write me or find a mechanic. If yes, check voltage with engine running - it should be about 13+ Volts. In the opposite case, check the alternator.
