ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE The multifunction steering wheel controls the operation of vehicle functions or devices such as headlights, windshield wipers, cruise control, and so forth, using a transmitter/receiver pair to convey information relative to the operation of the devices between the rotatable steering wheel and stationary steering column or between an anti-rotating control pad and the steering column. In particular, the transmitter/receiver pair may take the form of an optoelectronic infrared transmitter disposed on the steering wheel member and a matching infrared receiver positioned on the steering column within the field of elimination of the transmitter. If desired, a second transmitter/receiver pair conveys information in the opposite direction to confirm that the function or device is properly responding to control.
