A steering wheel for a vehicle may include a frame, a foam layer, a decorative member, a switch assembly and a contact element. The frame may include a central hub, a rim, and a spoke extending between the central hub and the rim. The foam layer may encase at least a portion of the frame. The decorative member may be mounted to the frame and may be at least partially formed of an electrically conductive material. The switch assembly may be mounted to the decorative member. The contact element may extend from the decorative member and may contact the frame to electrically connect the electrically conductive material of the decorative member with the frame.
