Default Porsche multifunction steering wheel

Hi guys. I want to install a Pioneer Appradio 4 and be able to use my stock multifunction steering wheel to control it (using Joycon to do so), but I need the following information.

1/ Do you guys know the resistive values of the buttons on the multifunction steering wheel?
2/ I believe Porsche operates on CAN BUS (but I could be wrong). If it is CAN BUS, where does the CAN BUS signal come from? Does it originate from the steering wheel? Or does it occur after the steering wheel?

Thanks a million!

I believe Porsche multifunction steering wheels come with a module located in the steering wheel.

Bijan, thanks for the reply. You're right, there is a module for the steering wheel, but I need to change the interface with Joycon so that the stock multifunction steering wheel can communicate with the aftermarket navigation system. That's why I need to know the resistive values of the steering wheel buttons and whether it's a CAN BUS signal.

This solves the CAN half of the equation for you:

Does your car have the Bose system?

I'd stay away from the Appradio, laggy and buggy. Great idea, but its time has not yet come. Save yourself the $$$ for at least a few years - you'll thank me.
