INSTALLATION PREPARATION I N STALL AT ION (CONT.)
From axxessinterfaces.com, submit the vehicle information in the box titled Vehicle Fit Guide &
AXSWC 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 AXSWC interface. If the interface is compatible,
there will be a link under the green bar titled AXSWC **** 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 386-257-1187, or techsupport@metra-autosound.com.

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 AXSWC
vehicle specific document. Connect this wire(s) to the AXSWC.

Kenwood. See the instructions under Changing Radio Type.
XITE: Connect the steering wheel control SWC-2 wire from the radio to the Brown wire.
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 AXSWC harness to the jack on the
radio designated for an external steering wheel control interface. Refer to the aftermarket
