Does anyone have the wiring diagram for the button panel surround

Thanks but the buttons are pre wird what i need to know is the wires are DF has coming from the buttons

 

[Ark :D]

Your question is not particularly clear. The button panel comes with a wiring guide page, and it's all detailed in the new wiring video series.

Mine didn't have the diagram in it

I’ll check my garage. I might still have it somewhere.

I don’t have a diagram, however it did come with a sheet explaining what each wire went to.

 

[Ark :D]

That's what I was thinking of.

can you link this video series? I am struggling to find this

Some button panel wiring info here.
Early model Cobalts (2005-2007) have different wiring than the late model Cobalts (2008-2010)

Thanks for responding so quickly Ross, I have come across that link before and no offense, but It is pretty much looks like chinese to me lol. I am so underprepared for this section and I am struggling. I am thinking I need to cut this piece (picture with hand in it (which goes to rear of of the speedometer))

And then do the following the diagram you linked, correct?

Also, do I need to go get the resistors listed in the link you provided? I can just go to autozone and ask for the specific ones listed?

Did you do your own harness or did you have DF do the harness for you, either way you should have a bundle of wires coming off of the harness without a plug. the first picture you show looks like the instrument panel connector which you do not want to cut.

If your button panel set came from DF it should have the resistors already installed, if you are making your own panel set you will need to source resistors.

I had DF do it for me. THANK YOU for replying! lol I was about to cut away because I am so impatient. I am so dumb and just overlooked everything that is in plain view and perfectly labeled by DF. Sorry for all the confusion.

They're all here, somewhere: https://www.youtube.com/@Dfkitcar

That is the wrong connector. That one goes to the instrument panel.
The one you need goes to the steering wheel clock spring. It is black, and has 1 row of 10 pins. My car wiring diagram is a little different than yours, but the connector should be the same. Since DF did your harness, the black connector probably has already been removed, and button panel wires connected? (DF didn't do my harness, so I am not sure)

That was a VERY helpful link! Thank you for sharing it Ross! I'll be going through your YT videos later tonight.

Thanks everyone, got it installed. Here is my schematic, I also posted it in my build log. Just through I would add it here as well incase someone searches for a remedy to this very issue.

Here is what I did. Keep in mind this is for the early model wiring scheme.
