Is the shift paddle resistance different from LCI to pre LCI?

What resistors do I need to use for the paddles to work?
Thx
Similar situation here. F10 wheel on a 2008 Pre-lci e92 non DCT so i would assume my original paddles aren't resistance triggered. i think that removing resistors and bridging the gap? Seems they also need to be grounded in the loop.

Anyone else had experience with similar?

for 2010 and before cars, ssg/dct paddles are just completing a circuit to ground in order to complete shift. Thats why by removing the resistors from lci paddles, they have the same functionality as ssg/dct paddles and will work on 2010 and before cars.

for 2011 cars, lci paddles are not connecting to grand anymore (no pin#2), and resistors are connecting between pin#1 and #3.

To make the dct paddles work on 2011 cars, I think the missing resistors need to add back to dct paddles in order to have the same functionality as lci paddles. I am working on add resistors back, will report after I finished.
