Sorry, I missed your messages on the thread.

The circuits for both the heating element and the thermistor appear to be fine - when I had issues with broken circuits, they would fail continuity tests with resistance on the order of milliOhms if anything at all.

I would imagine the resistance values to be the same for all wheels, but perhaps the expected values are higher for F8x. You mentioned the wheel was refinished, do you know if the original wheel was overwrapped with Alcantara or if the leather was removed first? Coby Wheel (who did this for me) mentioned that this could risk damage to the heating element pad and as a result, he only overwraps the original wheels. It is possible the wires are damaged or the heating element/thermistor lines are touching - these wires are very thin if you peel back the leather covering.

Also, is the steering wheel control module new as well, and is the correct one for your chassis (confirmed on RealOEM)? This part changed among different platforms and is unique even between pre-LCI/LCI.
