Good instructional video. You speak clearly and are easy to understand. So many instructional videos the person talking is mumbling and you can't understand what they are saying.
I purchased my whole system from these people an saved time an money. Best equipment for the buck. Knowledgeable people who are definitely interested in helping you to do it right. Thanks Crutchfield.
Most Sony stereos will work with a steereing wheel control interface adapter. Keep in mind; the steering wheel control adapters must also be compatible with the vehicle you plan to use it in. So, we'll likely have a compatible adapter but we'll need the model number of your Sony stereo and the Year, Make, & Model of your vehicle to be sure. Feel free to call for additional assistance: 800.315.0030--Crutchfield
Thank you my friend. Very well recording, clear and understandable. You save me a great deal of time and head aches.

Assuming your Kenwood is also compatible with the adapter (not all aftermarket stereos are), any controls you had over the original factory stereo (volume, channel, source, etc.) would be restored. The trip computer functions can be retained by grounding a wire from the factory harness. You will find more info in the "Support" section of the main Crutchfield website. You can also call for additional assistance: 800.315.0030--Crutchfield

I own a 2008 Ford Focus, and I bought this adapter for my new stereo, the flaw in this adapter is that it needs to be tapped into the constant power wire. After a month my battery stopped working. I would recommend using a CRUX Smart Harness adapter. It doesn’t drain the battery and it works great. If you also own a Ford Focus I do recommend the RP4-FD11 harness, that’s a very good one too.
You should have connected it to the accessory

connect one of these two brown wires to a wire that's already on the back of my stereo*
ONE of these two wires? What do you do with the OTHER brown wire? For those of us who are doing this for the first time, you can't assume we know what to do with it
No answer lol
The Crutchfield MasterSheets cover the physical removal and replacement of the factory components (stereo, speakers, etc.). Wiring information and color codes are provided in the manuals for the stereos and harnesses we offer. If you purchased from Crutchfield, our tech support can assist you as well.

We can only confirm compatibility with U.S. vehicles. You may want to contact the manufacturers directly to see if they offer compatible products for your region. HTH!--Crutchfield
Keep in mind; the vehicle & the aftermarket stereo both have to offer compatibility with the steering wheel control interface adapter. Any Pioneer that offers compatibility should also have the 3.5mm input jack for the adapter. If you purchased from Crutchfield, give our tech support department a call.

Thanks alot for sharing this video man. Posi-Tap seem like a way better alternative than T-Taps.

I installed this in my 2016 civic a few years ago but only the volume up button ever worked. Is there a way to reprogram one that has already been installed?
What model interface and radio are you using?
I have a question, regarding this issue, i got a Nissan Sentra Custom 2.0 2011, and I got a Stereo Car S90 but I could not make work either with a Steering Wheel Audio Controllers or iPod Docking, that came with the Car, do you have a product that could help me out?

For the steering wheel control interface adapters, you will need to connect to the factory wiring and the aftermarket stereo. The individual adapters offer specific instrcutions regarding these connections but , if you purchased from Crutchfield, our tech support department can assist you.

This is the best video on how to make these controls work, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!

When you installed the female 3.5mm adapter cable, which wires do those correspond to?
UA-cam does not allow links in the video comments. I can tell you that the most of the product owner’s manuals are available from the “Details” section for the selected product on the main Crutchfield website. If you want the Crutchfield MasterSheets for your vehicle, they are included free with purchase or sold separately for $9.99. Feel free to call for additional assistance: 800.315.0030--Crutchfield
I have a Honda odyssey rc jdm (Asian market) 2018 looking at your kenwood dnx994s and adapter however unable to confirm adapter compatability to purchase plz help
Adapter for steering wheel functions on ur video thanks
Can this be run from the same 12v accessory and same ground as the radio? My 2011 Crown Victoria LX seems to only have one of each when I looked at the connector and I don't know whether they can be shared between the aftermarket radio and ASWC-1 or if it's more complicated than that
Most of the information I have seen on this indicates that a lot of vehicles need the ground to be in a different spot from the radio's ground. I would imagine this is true for all vehicles. If you purchased it from us, you can give our technical support a call for confirmation. If you purchased elsewhere and they cannot help, you may reach out to Metra as they make the ASWC-1 interface.
HTH!

Hi, so the 3.5mm plug's Brown cable just goes to the Brown (KEY 1) in my Aftermarket stereo? Not both Brown and Brown/White?.
I have a Chevrolet HHR and the Aftermarket stereo has 1 Brown (Key-1) and 1 Brown/white (Key-2).
Thank for helping.
Some radios will use both wires, some use only one wire (the one in this demo video used only one), and some will use the 3.5mm connection. If you purchased your gear from us, I recommend calling our technical support for help. If it was purchased elsewhere and they cannot help, it might be best to contact Metra on 800-253-8324 as they make the ASWC-1 interface

Li have a 2013 impala I need a steering wheel control kit to keep my controls on my wheel. Any product ??
Many aftermarket stereos will offer a 3.5mm jack for an optional wired remote. On these models, the steering wheel interface adapter will plug to this port. Keep in mind; when this connection is provided for a wired remote, it is not an auxiliary audio input although it does use the same style connection.

Hi, I think you can help me. Which color led should be steady after finishing the programming ? Is it red or green led ? A green led is steading my axxess adapter. And when I press the button of steering wheel control the green LED blinks. But I can't see any change on stereo. My stereo is Sony MEX-N5050BT. Awaiting your reply. Thanks
I found in the owner’s manual that the LED will be solid red when programming is complete and it has successfully detected the vehicle and the new receiver.
I hope this helps!

Im havin trouble installing this in a 2003 Acura 3.2 Tl. I have everything wired except for the the ASWC, I have the Ignition wire and ground hooked up but I dont know where to connect the other wires, at first they didnt even have the info on the site and had to call them. Please HELP!!!!
Hi I am doing my research before installing an aftermarket deck into my Mazda 6 and have a few questions you may be able to answer.
First off...an aftermarket deck should only affect the "audio controls" on the steering wheel correct? As in, the cruise control functions on the steering wheel should be fine?
I am considering buying a Sony MEX BT3-100p single din deck that has bluetooth functionality. My car also has hands free calling features on the steering wheel. Will these calling features work with a bluetooth head unit? Will the Axxess adapter also allow the answer call and hang up button on the steering wheel work? Built in microphone? etc...
Another question I had regarded satellite radio. My stock head unit was Sirius ready and all i had to do was call Sirius and register. I currently have a 5 month subscription. The Sony head unit i am considering says Sirius XM ready, will this be easy to register my current subscription with the stereo deck? Or will my subscription be lost with the stock head unit being replaced?
Sorry if I sound very clueless but these are features in my car that I did not have before.
I was used to an old Subaru Impreza with just the basics. Basically I want to upgrade my sound but do not want to sacrifice any of the cars features...but also do not want to spend a fortune.
Thanks
I did check on website. There is no car like Holden Astra. So I am confused will it work with this car ?
I have this adapter but I dont know what 2 wire I need to use for my pontiac firebird its a 98 any help my radio don't the 3.5 in the back so I need to use the brown cables also but dont know for those either can anyone explain to me ?
So I've got a question, am I able to install this on a brand new receiver that has never been run before that way I don't have to wire it, run it once, and then rewire it with the adapter and program it?
Hi I have Pioneer appradio 2 (sph da100), my button not working ( vol up down & home), if I've installed this ASWC1 with my strering switch control, its will work to remotely control my HU? Thanks
The AppRadio2 is compatible with the ASWC-1 so, if your vehicle is also compatible, yes, it will work to retain the factory steering wheel controls.To see if your vehicle is compatible, you can use the "Outfit My Car" application on the main Crutchfield Website: bit.ly/2l32bTh Hope that helps!--Crutchfield
Can the hands free calling control still work? good video by the way.
Sometimes the wires for those hands free calling controls do run to the radio and when they do, they can be kept working. Sometimes they do not but instead run to different modules in the vehicle. When that happens, we cannot keep them working. For additional assistance & personalized recommendations, feel free to contact us directly:

On the steering wheel control adapter I have to wire it to another 12v wire that turns on and off with the ignition key. I am going to wire it to the receiver but my receiver has two 12v wires, one is a constant 12v and the other is switched. Which do I use?
You'd want to connect the adapter to the 12v switched wire in this case.
Hope that helps.

I'm trying to install the aswc-1 in my car. I'm trying to hook it up to a Pioner AVH-5600 but the thing is I don't know where the red/gray wire is supposed to go. I got the harness adapter but im really confused as to how to connect everything together. The car is a Honda Accord 2008 Ex-L if that helps any. Would really appreciate an answer. I found the video hoping to see all connections one by one. Thanks!
Most Pioneers offer the 3.5mm input on the back for the wired remote (or in this case steering wheel integration adapter). So you may not use the wire designated in the owner's manual for every aftermarket stereo.

The Axxess ASWC shown in the video has not been tested in your vehicle. The PAC SWI-RC model has been and it also work's with the Sony XAV receivers. HTH!--Crutchfield.
I have a problem, I don't know how to conect the green-white wire of the aswc to the car stereo connector the instructions said the i'm. Supposed to connect it to a hole but the hole has a wire so I don't know what to do Help! Please. Thank u
Jorge Avelar Many car stereos that offer compatibility with adapters like the ASWC provide a lead in the wiring harness instead of the 3.5mm input. Check your stereo's wire code listing (provided in the owner's manual) to confirm the proper lead needed for this connection.Hope that helps!--Crutchfield

Does adapters is only for the volume control only or it would work for the Bluetooth too?

Extremely helpful thank you for putting this up
I have a 2013 Dodge Challenger & I recently bought a Pioneer AVHX5600BHS In-Dash DVD Player but I'm not sure which steering wheel control adapter I need to buy for the specific stereo I bought. Can you help please?
While there are integration harnesses that offer built-in steering wheel control retention, there is a separate adapter for the factory steering wheel controls when you've installed the stereo with a basic integration harness: bit.ly/1hPJEm8
This adapter is compatible with both your vehicle and the Pioneer stereo.

I own a BMW 325ci 2005 and Also own the Swi-rc adapter. When I looked on their website, I saw no picture of the connector, what should I do?!
Well, depending on the original factory equipment (basic audio, premium Harmon Kardon audio, factory Navigation), we have different recommendations. While PAC may list the SWI-RC as compatible in all factory equipment versions of the vehicle, it may require additional parts (resistors, etc.) in some factory configurations.
If you purchased the adapter from Crutchfield, our tech support department will be happy to help. You can reach them directly at the number on the back of your invoice.
If you purchased the adapter elsewhere and the retailer will not help, you can contact PAC directly: 800-533-5487

Metra's instructions tells me that the green orange wire go's in pin 11 . Does it go in the wire on that slot or do I actually put it in the hole on the harness ?
i have a custom instaled honda civic hybrid (2006) instaled on some previous civic. My stereo is an Alpine iDa x-100 i would like to know if a PAC swi-rc would work on this. or if there is a better adapter that assures this will work for sure.
+Joprez PT Yes. The PAC SWI-RC is compatible with both the 2006 Civic Hybrid steering wheel controls and the Alpine stereo.Hope that helps!--Crutchfield
What if the aftermarket radio has a key 1 and key 2 wires. Are both wires uesd.
In order to retain the steering wheel controls in your car with the adapters we carry, your aftermarket head unit must have a SWC (Steering Wheel Control) 3.5mm input or steering wheel remote control input wire (blue/yellow).
You may want to check with the radio manufacturer directly for more info on the "key 1 and key 2 wires" you mentioned.
I hope that helps.

if i get a pac adapter, will i have to plug it into the 3.5 jack? sorry if this seems like a dumb question, i dont have much experience with these.
this is not step by step
Thank you so much for your video, very informative!
I have an extremely good question, I just bought this for a 2006 chevy malibu and i want to know if i connect these wires to the stock radios harness or the actual steering controls harness.... thats the only part im stumped about.
Very Well Explained.
Crutchfield doesn't seem to have any wiring harness or steering wheel control adapter for my 2014 Ford Focus ST, now what?? I was really looking forward to installing a Parrot Asteroid Smart but not if I lose function in my steering wheel radio buttons.
We do have kits, harnesses & steering wheel integration for the 2014 Focus provided you do not have the premium “Sony” sound package (factory screen w/ info display cannot be retained when an aftermarket stereo is installed) or have the Electric Focus: bit.ly/1e81Oen

Did you connect the ground and acc wires of the aswc-1 to the aftermarket or factory harness? Is it ok to connect them to the aftermarket harness/radio or do they need to be connected/grounded through the original factory harness like you did the other required wires?

great video.... so just to make sure that i heard you correctly... you are saying that I only need to use one of the brown wires frm the 3.5mm female adapter? and if so, which one. the one with the white stripe or the solid?
The installation/wiring of your steering wheel audio control adapter varies depending on the head unit model and the adapter model itself. If you purchased the gear from Crutchfield, our Tech Support can help in more detail with the install--you can contact them via the Tech number printed in your email invoice.
If not, you may want to contact the retailer or the manufacturer directly for more assistance. Thanks!

I had professional company installed my new stereo today with a new steering wheel control adapter. It worked when I first started the car but after the second time I started the car. My steering wheel control failed. The buttons stop functioning. Any reasons why?
It's hard to say without more specifics. The easy answer is to take it back to the "professional company" an have them troubleshoot the problem. Either it was not installed properly or the adapter may be defective. Regardless, if you paid for professional installation, I would certainly have them take another look.
HTH!

I need a module for my 2010 altima to wire it to my kenwood dnx691hd. So wich one is the one i need??
Thank you
To retain the factory steering wheel radio controls, you can use the Metra Axxess ASWC-1 adapter: bit.ly/1k9BwOS For the primary wiring harness (power, ground, speaker leads, etc.) you’ll need to know if the vehicle came factory equipped with the premium “Bose” sound package or the basic audio system.

good video but i wanted to see the actual wiring process...
exactly....this is the 5th video Ive watched trying to figure it out. Even the video from axxess didn't even show the wires.
every car is diffrent with wiring colors and schematic so its best for you to look that part up for your specific car. he was just showing you how simple it is as a whole to do this and a general idea of what is done
You wanted him to bring you the fish after he taught you how to smh.
which steering wheel interface do i need for a Vauxhall Astra mk 4 (1999) hatchbak 1.4 petrol?
We are not able to get our hands on those to research. I've read that Saturn could be the U.S. version of the vehicle and if that is correct, then I regret to tell you none of the steering wheel radio control interfaces we offer have been built to work in it
--Crutchfield
What are the two wires coming from the 3.5mm connector hooked up to, is it a power, grownd, or something else?
+Domini Goofy The adapter that plugs onto the 3.5mm connector in the video provides the wire leads for connecting to aftermarket stereos that have the steering wheel integration leads in the wiring harness instead of a 3.5mm input for the plug.

My radio does not have any physical volume knob and I only currently have cruise control on my sw. Any suggestions?
I'll be happy to help. Which radio do you have?
@@crutchfield it's a eonon android model that has the 10 inch display and double din. On the radio harness there are 3 unused steering wheel control wires. I'm sure its self explanatory, but not sure if I need a adapter or something. I forget the exact model stereo.
The best option we have would be the Axxess RFASWC:

If there is already a Bluetooth Mic installed for my car, will this adapter allow the functionality to work again? I see you have a bunch of wires you didn't use. Are one of those dedicated to the microphone?
+drslickrick15 This interface does not keep a factory installed Bluetooth microphone working. The extra wires are there because this interface can work with many different vehicles and aftermarket radios. They automatically include all the wires that could be possibly used in these different vehicles which means some will always be left unused. Typically, the only way to use a factory Bluetooth microphone is if there is a way to keep the factory Bluetooth system working when you install a new radio.

I am working on this task right now and can't figure out how it will work. It is claiming my 07 Honda Civic EX with standard sound system going to P4400 radio only need the Gray/red wire tapped in to pin 7 and then ground Pin 6. Then it will magically work?!? I have VOL, CH and Mode. Ya.. That takes more then 1 wire. however, the book claims I will be using 5 pins (the above claims 3...) with the pink wire connected to 1N and then green/white to 1P... This company can't agree on it's self.
Hello, I have a Camry 2006, at the moment my car has the factory stereo / head unit. I am able to control the Multi Information Display unit on my dashboard from my Steering wheel. I had previously installed another stereo on this car and lost this features. My question is, if I buy this adapter, will I be able to control the "mode" features on my steering wheel, or is it just for the up and down volume and seek/ source features? Thank you Very much.

However, I have a Nissan Xtrail TI 2005 that steering wheel only have cruse control. But I prefer to have a newer steering wheel with volume and track controls as I want to upgrade the stereo at the same time.
I want to know; is this possible and then what are the options I have & your suggestions?
Thanks.
The steering wheel adapters we carry are intended to retain the use of existing steering wheel controls for volume, next song, etc. If you don't currently have those your options would be to replace the steering wheel with a new one that does have those or add a universal steering wheel control adapter like this Axxess RFASWC to your existing steering wheel:

Hi, what about the Mercedes CLK 200 W209 ? Can't find the compatibility on the Axxess website
Not *all* vehicle makes & models are compatible with the aftermarket steering wheel control interfaces.
For more details on compatibility with your Mercedes, feel free to contact an Advisor directly on our website: www.crutchfield.com/I-rYTVc000/Support/Chat.aspx
Thanks,

do you know what kind of Steering Wheel Control Interface do I need to get for Sony head units? do the Metra Axxess have any interfaces that will work on a sony head unit?
I have a 2012 yaris and have just brought a sony xav60bt. will this adapter work with my steering controls?
don’t worry about the wire connection color and pin details, it’s not like we all came here for that…
my thoughts exactly
Each car is different, you need to find that out yourself. Did you not hear that part?
Jordan Hansen I believe many of us came here in search of which wires out of the interface harness will be used. Maybe if we knew what pin3 were we could figure it out in our vehicles. I am sure plenty of people have gone to the website to get instructions, only to be given an error like "We are sorry, but we are not sure, if this device is compatible with your vehicle and stereo. Your exact vehicle is not one in which we have had the opportunity to attempt an install. Please call customer service at 1800... ...."
exactly. Where the hell in the car do you find the wires to connect to those Key1 and Key 2 on the adapter ? are we going to find behind the stereo or we have to take a part everything in the car ? stuff like that. ....
@@TuanLe-eb5yp you need to use a steering wheel control interface , and the solder a 3.5mm female jack to key 1 and key 2, then you can plug the steering wheel interface 3.5mm male into the 3.5mm female plug you soldered to key 1 and key 2 , i hope that helps
I need to know the dip switch settings for my sony radio and my 1999 buick regal.
where did you get the posi taps from? or do I have to use them to connect the wires? Could I strip the wire and connect the wires from the SWC instead of using the posi taps?
We offer the Posi Taps on the main Crutchfield website here: bit.ly/2s3bOEl For additional assistance and personalized recommendations, feel free to contact is directly: bit.ly/2jBGHPp Hope that helps--Crutchfield
Bought a stereo with a package from you guys, the package for my Audi has this but there is no instruction on how to install. The axxess website shows that my car is not compatible. Bought this a while back and I can't return along with two noise isolators that my car didn't need :'(

I see you are doing this on a Nissan Qashqai. Do you have any advice on replacing the actual part that controls all these functions on the steering wheel i.e. the clock spring/spiral cable? I have purchased 3 until now ( from Chinese suppliers) all fail after 1-2 months.
Our vehicle research only covers models released in North American markets--which unfortunately doesn't include the Nissan Qashqai.
You may want to try contacting a local Nissan dealer in your region for more details.

I've been searching and cannot find one of these adapters to work with the steering wheel controls in an International ProStar. I'm looking at buying a ProStar, but will almost certainly want to replace the woefully inadequate factory stereo. Does anyone know if the International uses controls that are compatible with some other vehicle, that I can buy an adapter for?
i have a 06 charger i dont kno what wire goes where cuz it says white and orange and 2nd white but there is neither color on my harness
If you purchased the adapter from Crutchfield, our Technical Support can help you out with these wiring/installation questions by phone. You can find the number listed on your Crutchfield email invoice & order confirmation.
Otherwise you may want to contact the retailer you got it from, or the manufacturer of the adapter directly for more help.

hi great video. i have bought a steering wheel adaptor for peugeot 307, connected to the xtron player which compatible but the steering wheel stalk is not working, any idea what i need to do ? theres key 1 key 2 and ground wire which i haven't connected , i just plugged and play
I'm afraid we don't carry those products and don't have any research on file for your Peugeot. Your best option to get more detailed installation & wiring help would be to reach out to the manufacturer directly.
I hope that helps.

thanks mate got it sorted
Does it work with cars which have other steering wheel controls such as voice recognition, front and side camera on/off and answer/reject phone call functions?
There are several different steering wheel integration adapter options. Depending on your specific vehicle and selected stereo, most, if not all, of the factory steering wheel stereo controls can be retained. Many of the adapters allow you to re-program the button functions to provide additional and/or completely different functions as well.For additional assistance and personalized recommendations, feel free to contact us directly: www.crutchfield.com/I-rYTVc180/support/ContactUs.aspx Hope that helps!--Crutchfield
+Crutchfield And another question, if the factory stereo is fitted with an external microphone, will the original microphone work with the aftermarket stereo?
do you loose trip computer when using this product
While trip computers and driver information center displays can be lost when an aftermarket stereo is installed in a vehicle, this would not be the result of using a steering wheel integration adapter.You can see which models are recommended and which factory features will be retained or lost in your vehicle by using the "Outfit My Car" application on the main Crutchfield website: www.crutchfield.com/I-rYTVc180/car/carselector.aspx?lp=%2fCar%2foutfitmycar%2fmycar.aspx For additional assistance and personalized recommendations, feel free to contact us directly: www.crutchfield.com/I-rYTVc180/support/ContactUs.aspx Hope that helps!--Crutchfield
I don't see anything for Opel on your site???
What about the Australian vehicle Holden Commodore Calais? Will it work?...Thanks.
Do you know if the 2005 Nissan Tiida is compatible with this?
The Nissan Tiida is not a model that was produced for the U.S. market (our territory) so, we do not have information regarding it's compatibility with the steering wheel integration adapters we offer. You may want to check with the adapter manufacturers directly to see if they can confirm the compatibility for you and let you know which of their Authorized Retailers serves your specific region.Hope that helps!--Crutchfield
