Cruise control not working

Good morning I have a 2016 a5 cabriolet, when purchased steering wheel buttons and paddles were not working but the horn was I have replaced the control ring under the airbag after diagnostic said this was the fault, however since fitting my mechanic can't get the cruise control stalk to work which was working before the control ring was swapped, I ordered a new part from autodoc using the vehicle reg so I'm sure the ring is the correct oem part, any ideas or advice would be really appreciated

Just an update, I've got hold of a audi tech as a foreigner and he has told me the one I ordered is general part and not the exact audi part no. This has now been ordered and should arrive on Monday. But I now have a power steering warning light as well, I'll keep the thread updated and if the new ring fixes my problems I'll place the part no in the feed

    Thanks Brian,

    Autodoc has had mention in relation to the supply of incorrect parts. I’ve never been affected by this, because I don’t buy from them, preferring not to pay highish postage charges compared with other suppliers. 
    Regards,

    Gareth.

    Hi all, after several trips to the dealer I brought the car from, he ended up taking it to audi ended up having a complete new steering wheel,paddles buttons control ring and cruise control switch, then all new bits coded to the car bill came to 3.9k  including all the labour.  Problem solved at last 👌

    Thanks for the update. I hope the dealer that sold you the car paid the bill?!
