The only use my steering wheel controls get are when I accidentally touch one during a turn, which is a royal pain. Has anyone figured out how to turn them off?

I bet one of the CAN bus hackers or the Tazer folks could figure this out.

By now I’ve gotten used to them, and in fact they’re handy when my screen locks up, which happened last weekend.

Today I took the steering wheel apart again. I measured all the cables and switches, checked that everything is connected and the switches are functional. After reassembling it, it still doesn't work. I'm at my wits' end. I need to find out how the steering wheel ring and radio are connected. The buttons for controlling the phone, dashboard and cruise control work.
Could you please advise me if the switches for the right and left side have the same order number? What is the part number?
