Abstract: A system for communicating with components on a steering member has a first electrically conductive coil affixed to a stationary component around a steering shaft of the vehicle. A second electrically conductive coil is coupled to and rotating with the steering member. The second transceiver is wirelessly operatively coupled the first transceiver. The first transceiver coupled to the first electrically conductive coil. A second transceiver is coupled to the second electrically conductive coil. The first electrically conductive coil induces current in the second electrically conductive coil to power a first component of the components. The first electrically conductive coil is spaced apart from the second electrically conductive coil. The first transceiver and the second transceiver bi-directionally wirelessly communicate through the first electrically conductive coil and the second electrically conductive coil.
