How to activate Pioneer steering wheel controls
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 жов 2024
- Here's a tip on how to activate your steering wheel controls on your Pioneer Car audio/video unit. To complete this step you must have the park brake wire connected (or grounded) and the steering wheel control wires of the car hardwired to the PIONEER AV unit (applicable models, see your user manual for details, if your manual says 'steering wheel interface ready' you will need a third party steering wheel interface adapter). Use the cheat sheet at the link below to find out which wires on your car you need to connect to.

You, sir, are a dead set legend. Steering control buttons stopped working after I removed the battery and you helped get them working again. Thank you!
You bloody beauty. I thought the money i spent on an adapter to enable steering wheel controls was wasted. Nowhere did it mention this hack in the manual. Been travelling without steering controls for a week since install. Many, many thanks!
Absolute legend! I was freaking out thinking I’d have to take it back out when I replaced my battery. Saved my night.
This may very well be the best video on all of UA-cam!! My entire weekend of screaming and crying just came to an end in less than 2mins!! THANK YOU THANK YOU!
Glad we could help Anthony, Sling us a Google review!
I realize Im pretty off topic but do anyone know of a good website to watch newly released series online ?
I love when I find videos like these. Wonderful people just wanting to help out others. Many many thanks!
super quick and easy' wasn't a long asf video like some people drag out for.
thank man straight to the point and got me sorted
Thank you!! After a service the controls stopped working and this video helped me get them set up again! I even managed to change the useless Mode button to AV Source, which helps immensely.
i has this issue after changing my Camaro battery, the electrician wanted 50$ to fix it , nice i watched ur video and not paid that thief any money , thank you
Bro u saved me a trip back to the shop, they changed my car battery and some settings reset. I was pulling me hair trying to figure out why that setting was grayed out 😂, ma hero!
Would be handy if you showed the screen when saying "just press on this" so we could see.
Fk sake……
Thank you so much i was getting so upset over not being able to use my steering wheel buttons after all the time i took in installing my radio, you,re a life saver
Spent an entire day scrolling through everything and finally found this video
Thank you very much for this
Awesome. This did the trick! Been scratching my head trying to figure out why I could not access it! Thanks!!!
We all said it❗️You know it❗️
ABSOLUTE LEGEND! I had no idea what was going on with the head unit and in 2 minutes you fixed the problem
Had the head deck in for over 3 years now lol Finally can use the steering wheel controls. Something so fricken simple *face palm* Thank you :D
You’re a bloody legend was spewing until I saw this vid. One of the best vids on UA-cam
This may be an old video but this saved me a trip to the mechanic. Many thanks for this tip😄
THANKYOU, you'd think Pioneer would print this clearly in their guide with a battery disconnect so freaking common!
Thankyou, through doing that trick i worked out my handbrake signal wire wasnt getting signal... frustrating as hell, but its all sorted now :)
Great video- thanks! I lost the steering wheel controls when changing the battery. This video resolved my issue.
i had to replace my battery on my prado 150 and when i was finished the steering controls wouldnt work until i watched your video. so thanks for the tips.
Simple trick, but so helpful. Was breaking my head before watching your video.
Maaaaate. Wish I found this video an hour ago. Thanks so much. Saved me an embarrassing trip back to the auto elec.
Thank you! I have set up the controls before but forgot this step this time and found your video which reminded me to turn off the Source first!
Thanks man. I had to replace my battery, and it's been so long that I totally forgot about source off.
Oh man, couldn't work out why the controls were disabled, thanks so much.
Just reconnected a battery and for got the whole ‘source off’ thing. Thanks again 😊
O M G...... you are a bloody legend, spent 2 days trying to get steering wheel controls to work on my VF commodore with a wireless Pioneer unit.
Brilliant, thank you. I lost my steering wheel controls after doing a Restore. Now they're back thanks to you. Champion !
Thank you! Just got my battery replaced and needed to set the steering controls again. It was driving me nuts. Easy fix with this great info!
Thanks mate, it was driving me nuts having it greyed out 😂
Lifesaver! Like the other comments, probably the best video on UA-cam for solving steering wheel control woes!
Thank you for telling me that I have to switch the source off. Thank you so much.
Mate I can’t thank you enough!! My car was worked on a few weeks ago and the controls stopped working. Pulled the stereo apart and was also pulling my hair out at the same time.
My audio controls are working again on the steering wheel 👍🏻💪🏻
you are the real mvp i was ready to pull it all apart
This video saved me time and frustration. Much thanks.
if it was not for this guy i would be hunting wires fir ages . thank you thank you . you dont find that little tip any where
Life saver!
Didn't even think to turn it on in settings haha.
Saved the day! Cheers from Melbourne!
Not all superheroes wear capes
Thank you kindly sir
Had it greyed out and had no idea how to get it working. Thankyou!
Now to find what cable to earth for BT
Thanks so much for saving me time. Finally managed to get it to work.
Helped me alot to configure it on suzuki splash. ty
Awesome. Needed this after new battery. Was thinking I had to pull the whole radio out again. Glad I didn't
Thank you! Don't forget to ground the teal handbrake cable too. I needed to do this also on my Pioneer DMH-Z5350BT
Did you connect the teal handbrake cable from the iso harness directly to metal?
@@msmith909 yes, that's correct.
Awesome, had just replaced the battery and was worried I'd need to pay someone again to sort it. Phew.
Not bhed. Thanks legend, you have just saved me.
Thanks you bro, it worked without getting out the set.. you made my day..
Thanks so much! This worked perfectly once I had source set to off on a mercedes b200
Great video mate, just a little thing that most people don’t know. Appreciate the shared info
Oh man, this has changed my life! Thanks.
Thank You a million times saved my day
Saved my life 😂 cheers
Thanks for the info. Quick question though, does the programming go via BCM or can the Steering wheel be wired directly and independently?
Source OFF! Great information! This should be in the manual but it isn't! Thank you.
Then you very much, that was a secret I couldn't find out🍻
Hola!! Grettings from Costa Rica! Thank you, your video helped me a lot! :)
You're welcome!
You are a lifesaver man.
You did a great job. You saved me from having a nightmare during a long new year holiday.
Your the man !! Worked straight away thanks heaps
Thanks for this , it saved me putting a hammer through my stereo. 👌
No problem 👍
Legit same
This video helped me out, I have this same head unit and now can't get my reverse camera working. It's an after market pioneer compatible. Got it for free when I bought the head unit. Any advice?
Thank you for the wiring diagrams!
THANK YOU SO MUCH MAN
this helped me so much, i would have never of thought to do this, saved me blood sweat and tears.
earnt yaself a sub 😝
Great video thanks. Got my work vehicle back from a service and it had been disconnected from steering wheel control and greyed out ever since due to them removing battery. Thanks I'm up and running!
Tip would be to select to set up with adapter as a guess then if it's not automatically set up opt for manual setup without adapter.
Hi i dont have this SWC in my pioneer AVH-Z3100DAB

Hi. I have PIONEER DMH-A340DAB there is no option "source off " I don't have even "steering wheel control" option. But that model have option to use steering wheel control. But is not exist in the menu. So except throwing to trash bin that trash radio what I can do? Pionner is not responding at all.
I have the same problem
Thanks a lot for this video..👍🏻
Thank you it has worked
Awesome. You are legend. Thank you very much.
Thank you friend. Your video so helpful
Worked like a charm!
Thanks so much for this video!
super useful information that I wish id known a lot earlier. WTF is this required? damn pioneer make so strange choices sometimes.
Really helpfull thanks 1/10/24
Great video mate, thanks for sharing.
I run the AVH-ZL5150BT in my FJ and love it! I was wondering if you know if it can be set to power on only once the vehicle is running?
The problem is, I usually turn the ignition on and leave it until all electronic diagnostics are completed before I turn the engine over. This causes the unit to power on, shut down and power on again every single time. This is quite annoying as I’ve got the screen position set at an angle.
I know this can be controlled in some of the Kenwood units, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to set the delay on this.
Does it work on your FJ without an adapter?
I think you need to have the ignition wire on the unit connected to a sensor that outputs 12v (or 14.4v in this case) only when the engine is running. If your car doesn't have an output you can get an device that splices into your CANBUS or plugs into your OBD2 socket, and outputs a voltage once the engine is running.
@@user-njyzcip thank you, will look into it.
@@jraddd3477 I had it professionally installed, but I'm pretty certain they used an adapter.
Hello! Great video 🙂 I have a Mazda 3 BL and pioneer z5350bt head unit. Purchased step 1 & 2 of the corresponding Aerpro harnesses, followed your video but still, steering wheel controls are not working. Ive tried unplugging everything and plugging back in again but the menu option is still greyed out and I cannot select it. Do you have any other tips?
Hey I’m having the same problem just wondering if you solved it
@@danielolito I have heard you have to ground the handbrake cable too, haven't tested yet though
thanks so much man really helpfull 👍👍
Good stuff! Thanks mate!
I am just bought the dmh-340dab radio but there are some problems with the menu and i mean that when i touch the settings button it opens a menu with less options than it had to be. For example there is no list of options with the "star" in front of them as you show in this video. Is there a possibility that I have to "unlock" something in the menu?
Happen to disconnect my battery had same issues with Sterring control not working….it seem I can’t locate we’re source page is on video to turn it off as you it was difficult to hold camera….any suggestions would be appreciated
I love you thank you so much
Thank youu so much man
Thank you for the great demonstration.
I'm about to try it on my Nissan X Trail T31, and I wonder whether I should connect the head unit to wiring coming from the Bluetooth module or do the bypass (and connect the head unit directly to the SW control buttons)?
Any idea?
Saved my day
My radio doesn’t have an option for steering wheel controlls
