Click to expand...

Does the button even light up when you press it???

Have you:

a) Taken the gearlever trim off to check connection in car??

b) Had a quick look under car for wires hanging down - not connected??

Sounds as though a multi plug has been left disconnected underneath the car or cables pinched. Have a look for a dangling plug.
When pulling the lump out of the V8's all the disconnecting etc. is carried out under the bonnet and car-no need to go near the inside.
