Check #3.

Just for fuse reference, the one circled is the one I replaced (Elec. Parts), you call #4, the natural order doesn't seem to be #4. Which would be #3/S-Mode fuse? The "Meter" fuse?

Just noticed the upside down fuses, on that right away!!

Thanks.

And no more questions for you today.
a little different from the FSM but generally same. ( not accepting my image)

Looking at your fuse box image, left column, upper slot (empty) is #1. So #3 and #4 is electric parts and meter.

Really appreciate all your help, I’m back on this.

1. I purchased a new switch, no change
2. Going to check the other end of the S-Mode harness tomorrow, I’m hoping it’s not connected!
3. I am hearing my clutch spinning when pedal is out, but just read this is normal?

Thanks

Just and update to anyone interested. S-Mode still not functioning.
1.Today (and so far), I checked all connections (well believe I did)
2. Removed cluster to inspect if anything seemed odd, all good.
3. Replaced switch with brand new one
4. Checked clutch switch under pedal (my cruise works fine)
5. System reboot


I’ll attempt to check power going to switch, I’m little confused how to do, but will figure out

Dropped off at dealer today, after a full day, they still haven’t figured out the issue.

My S mode wasn't working when I got my car as well. I also noticed a few people saying there's no "click" to the button. Mine did not have any click to it either. That said, I ended up unscrewing the shift boot bezel which released the switch and I noticed I could get a clicking actuation out of the switch, indicating that my button was not getting enough travel and was always being pressed. I added a washer to the screw nearest the button which keeps the shifter bezel and the ring together. This ensured the additional button travel and actuation which has my S mode working even today.

Hope this helps.

Edit: I see OP bought a new switch so my thoughts may be null :/ hope the dealer figures it out.

That's extremely interesting, I noticed I wasn't getting a click when installed, but would click uninstalled.

I'm just going to pick up my Z, they can't figure out the issue, I'm sure it's sitting on the sidelines anyhow.

Default Dealer couldn’t fix issue

The dealer couldn’t fix, they say it’s the switch, the switch is brand new. Plus now my hvac goes from cold to blistering hot in one click. So upon reassembly, they didn’t plug something back in. Now I have to drive all the way back again. Plus my shift knob wasn’t screwed on, and the leather is damaged, and my CD is gone from my head unit.

At this point I’m angry, very sloppy service! WTF!

This is why many despise the dealers!!

Sorry to hear about your recent luck mate, that sucks! I've worked at quite a few dealerships in my younger millennial years (lol!) as a detailer and I've seen quite a lot of shadiness. I'm thankful that today im mechanically inclined enough to do 95% off the work on my own. Now I'm just lazy sometimes lol.

Have you tried activating S mode with the switch detached from the shift bezel? I'm curious if my solution would work for you. If it works, I'm happy to pull out the bezel and snap a few pics of my washer spacer mod.
