After I typed "that's ********" and erased it, I realised they are corect. The specific wording is corect. The switch cannot be ordered alone. It has to be ordered with the panel. So it will come with the advance track button and rear glass shade button. Not alone. I'll see if I can find a part number
I have to put my tail between my legs.
His window sticker is corect. And his car did come with 20 inch wheels, not 19. Must of been a weird window sticker year, but he has one of them basterd SHOs that has both ths perf. Pack and automated parking.
Looking in the WSM the description of the sho says the button is an input to the instrument panel(IPC). When looking at the ipc wire diagram it does show the switch in cell 60 page 2it calls it out as an active park switch, but the circuit call out at the IPC states "ESC cancel SW"
In WSM section 206-09 > diagnosis and testing > pinpoint test "Q" for the symptom of the stability control/traction control system is inoperative or cannot be disabled it clearly states in the normal operation and fault conditions paragraph that the sho has a switch in the center of the instrument pannel. Non SHOs will be through the message center.
The active parking switch is an input to the parking aid module in wire cell 131 page 3.
The traction/stability control switch is in wire cell 60 page 2. The circuit is called out as "ESC cancel SW" in the box representing the instrument pannle cluster. The switch itself is called out as "active park assist switch" becuase the two switches are part of the same assembly.
The switch that you show with the park assist button has a part number of DG1Z-13D730-BA. I would think it's supposed to have both together. You can't order one of both switches and put them together as they share a conector.
I think the end all be all for you, is to remove the switch that you see with the active park assist lable and see if there is a blue wite with a white tracer in cavity 6.
If the circuit is there, you have the aring switch.
The above information is all information from the same service publications the dealership has access too. Nothing special other than someone spending an hour looking and reading.
You can give the dealership this post to prove your point, or check the circuit for its presence, then explain your point with this post.
Have fun!
