No they dont at first it really bothered me but then I figured the whole point of steering wheel controls is so you dont have to look to change the radio so I got used to it after awhile.

No, there is something wrong with your wiring because mine changes in whatever position it is in.

I thought the window lock switch was like a child lock so passengers cant roll down their own windows. But on my (our) car when that switch is on the driver cant even controll the windows. WHats up with that?
