Abstract
A conductor assembly for conveying signals between steering wheel and column to permit control of multiple functions (headlights, wipers, cruise control, etc.) from the steering wheel. Electrical connection is established through a multiple conductor ribbon-like cable which is wound about a central hub within the conductor assembly enclosure. When the wheel is turned from lock to lock, the cable doubles back upon itself so that a minimum cable length is required. To facilitate installation, the enclosure includes a self locking mechanism to insure that the cable cannot be wound or unwound until the assembly is installed on the vehicle.
