INSTALLATION PREPARATION

From axxessinterfaces.com, submit the vehicle information in the box titled Vehicle Fit Guide &

ASWC-1 Install Instructions, then select GET PARTS. This will take you to a page where you will be

notified if your vehicle will work or not with the ASWC-1 interface. If the interface is compatible,

there will be a link under the green bar titled ASWC-1 **** Wiring Instructions. Click on this link

to open the PDF document for your specific vehicle. Print this document to have with you in the

vehicle during the installation.

Note: Though we have done extensive research, testing, and verifying that the steering wheel

control wires from the vehicles listed are correct, it is still the Installer's responsibility to verify

that the steering wheel control wires are truly correct. If a discrepancy is found, please notify our

Tech Department at 1-800-253-TECH, or [email protected].

INSTALLATION

12-pin harness:

• Connect the Black wire to chassis ground.

• Connect the Red wire to the accessory power.

• Locate the steering wheel control wire(s) in the vehicles harness as noted in the ASWC-1

vehicle specific document. Connect this wire(s) to the ASWC-1.

Note: Axxess recommends that the wires are soldered for the best "copper-to copper"

connection. Tapping style connectors are not recommended.

INSTALLATION

3.5mm jack:

• For the radios listed below: Connect the female 3.5mm connector with stripped leads, to the male

3.5mm SWC jack from the ASWC-1 harness. Any remaining wires tape off and disregard.

• Eclipse: Connect the steering wheel control wire, normally Brown, to the Brown/White

wire from the connector. Then connect the remaining steering wheel control wire,

normally Brown/White, to the Brown wire from the connector.

• Metra OE: Connect the steering wheel control Key 1 wire (Gray) to the Brown wire.

• Kenwood or select JVC with a steering wheel control wire: Connect the Blue/Yellow

wire to the Brown wire.

Note: If the Kenwood radio auto detects as a JVC, manually set the radio type to

Kenwood. See the instructions under Changing Radio Type.

• XITE: Connect the steering wheel control SWC-2 wire from the radio to the Brown wire.

• Parrot Asteroid Smart or Tablet: Connect the 3.5mm jack to the AX-SWC-PARROT (sold

separately). Then connect the 4-pin connector from the AX-SWC-PARROT to the radio.

Note: The radio must be updated to rev. 2.1.4 or higher software.

• Universal "2 or 3 wire" radio: Connect the steering wheel control wire, referred to as

Key-A or SWC-1, to the Brown wire from the connector. Then connect the remaining

steering wheel control wire, referred to as Key-B or SWC-2, to the Brown/White wire

from the connector. If the radio comes with a third wire for ground, disregard this wire.

Note:

After the interface has been programmed to the vehicle, refer to the manual provided with

the radio for assigning the SWC buttons. Contact the radio manufacturer for more information

• For all other radios: Connect the 3.5mm jack from the ASWC-1 harness to the jack on

the radio designated for an external steering wheel control interface. Please refer to the

aftermarket radios manual if in doubt as to where the 3.5mm jack goes to.
