Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The heated steering wheel now has multiple modes since a recent update (Off, Low, High and Auto). This also seems to have stopped the switch from working, when I turned it on now it waited a few seconds then just turned off (with climate off). Tried with climate on and it switches between off and low. I have it kept on auto normally so is not a massive issue for me.

Describe the solution you'd like Change the heated steering wheel switch to a select with the relevant options.

Describe alternatives you've considered Leave as is, with limited functionality

Additional context N/A

Research direction
