AXSWC

Radio Troubleshooting

If the auto detect feature was used and at the end of the programming sequence the light in the AXSWC interface turned solid Red, yet fails to function, follow the steps below to trace down where the problem may lie. If any of the following steps are performed, reset and reprogram the interface according to the vehicle speciﬁc document. Scroll down to the end of the document for a physical layout of the interface showing the reset button location.

• Make sure the 3.5mm jack from the interface is connected to the radio securely, and that it’s in the correct “steering wheel control” jack from the radio. Make sure it’s “Bluetooth Mic” jack or “AUX-IN” jack. If unsure which jack to connect to the radio, contact the radio Manufacturer.

Note: Some radios don’t use a jack for steering wheel controls, instead they use a wire(s).

• If installing a radio with a wire(s) for connections instead of a 3.5mm jack, also program the steering wheel controls within the radio, after the interface has been programmed, and the light is

solid Red. Refer to the manual provided with the radio, or contact the radio Manufacturer for any questions regarding this process.

Note: This does not apply to JVC and Kenwood radios.

• Speciﬁc radio troubleshooting steps:

• For Kenwood radios: Make sure the LED feedback shows a Kenwood radio installed (2 Red light ﬂashes). If the LED feedback shows a JVC radio instead (5 Red light ﬂashes), reference the Changing Radio Type document to change the radio type. If the LED feedback shows 7 Red light ﬂashes, this could mean the wrong wire used from the radio, or a bad 3.5mm jack. Kenwood radios use a Blue/Yellow wire for steering wheel control. Make sure the Blue/White wire is not accidentally used. If the radio is connected properly, then the 3.5mm jack may be at fault. Remove the the steering wheel controls. If the radio has this feature, make sure it is turned on. If it is on, turn it off, then back on.

• For Alpine radios: Remove the 3.5mm jack from the radio, reset and reprogram the interface with the jack removed, then reconnect the 3.5mm jack back into the radio. Makek sure the steering wheel control jack used is labeled “REM”. Also, some Alpine radios have a feature that turns the remote to either the back or the front. If the radio has this feature, make sure the sensor is on the rear setting. If the setting is on the rear setting, turn it to the front, then back to the rear.

• For Pioneer and Sony radios: If the interface works, yet the buttons are out of order, or become out of order, this could be caused by the 3.5mm jack. It may not be seating properly, slipping out, or have residue on the contacts. Clean the contacts, reinsert the jack ﬁrmly into the radio, then put a stress loop on the 3.5mm cable to prevent it from slipping out. Also, if anything is prohibiting the jack from seating all the way in such as a heatsink, lightly trim some of the plastic from the 3.5mm jack as needed. Take note that the steering wheel control jack for Pioneer radios is labeled “W/R”. For Sony radios it is a blue jack labeled “REMOTE”.

• Any radio using a wire for SWC connection: Ensure the correct steering wheel control wire is used from the used. The Brown/White wire will not be used in these applications. Take note that the solid Brown wire is always the primary wire.

Vehicle Troubleshooting

If the auto detect feature was used and at the end of the programming sequence the light in the AXSWC interface ﬂashes Red/Green instead of turning solid Red, this means the interface didn’t detect the vehicle. Follow the steps below to trace down where the problem may lie. If any of the following steps are performed, reset and reprogram the interface according to the vehicle speciﬁc document. Scroll down to the end of the document for a physical layout of the interface showing the reset button location.

• Make sure the interface is programmed correctly according to the vehicle speciﬁc document. In general, there are 3 different ways to program the interface depending on the vehicle, “press and

hold”, “tap”, and “do nothing”. For applications to “press and hold” the Volume Up button on the steering wheel, make sure the button is held down until the end of the programming sequence.

Sometimes pressing and holding the Volume Up button before resetting the interface helps. For applications to “tap” the Volume Up button on the steering wheel, make sure the Volume Up button is tapped at a heartbeat pace. Don’t tap too slow, or too fast. Try tapping the Volume Up button at different speeds if no success after a couple attempts. For applications that don’t require any intervention with the Volume Up button on the steering wheel (“do nothing”), make sure no buttons are pressed during the programming sequence.

•

Make sure the factory equipment functions properly, and still functions properly after attempting to install the aftermarket equipment. Temporarily reinstall the factory radio, then test the steering

wheel controls for functionality. Take note which button is Volume Up. Some vehicles may have this button behind the steering wheel, and this button may be upside down if the steering wheel is turned. Make sure all of the steering wheel control buttons function, and that none of them are smashed down. There should be spring-like feel to the buttons. The factory radio may function with a bad button(s), but the interface most likely will not. Especially important is the Volume Up button, which the interface uses for programming. Also worth mentioning is optional “non-audio” buttons. Some Ford and Subaru vehicles that do not have Bluetooth repurpose the secondary steering wheel control wire. Do not connect “steering wheel control wire 2” in these applications

• Check power and ground at the interface. With the ignition cycled on, connect the red and black leads from a multimeter to the Solid Black wire and Red wire from the interface, directly at the 12-pin connector. The meter should read roughly 12-volts DC.

•

Conﬁrm that the interface has a good ground. Due to the nature of how microprocessors function, sometimes having the ground from the interface shared with the factory ground is not sufﬁcient and could cause problems. The use of a chassis ground solely by itself is highly recommended, especially in data communication vehicles (Pink wire applications). Attach the Solid Black wire from the interface to a good chassis ground, all by itself. Make sure this wire is straight from the interface without any extensions, a ring terminal (not supplied) is used and crimped properly. This will alleviate any grounding issues that could prevent the interface from programming

• Recheck that the wires connected from the interface to the vehicle are correct. Reference the vehicle speciﬁc document, and double check that the proper document is used. Some vehicles have more than 1 document for different trims. If it is a non-data communication vehicle, test the factory steering wheel control wires with a multimeter by applying the negative from the meter to the steering wheel control ground wire, and the positive to the steering wheel control positive wire, (with no load connected to the wires). Have the meter on a resistance setting (OHM Ω), then test each steering wheel control button one at a time. Each button should show a solid reading with little ﬂuctuation, and there should be a noticeable difference between each button. Note that the Volume Up button is crucial to be 100% proper as this is the button used for programming. Write these values down if Tech Support will be contacted.

• Verify that the wires connected from the interface to the vehicle are connected directly, copper to copper, i.e., solder, crimp cap, military splice. No tapping style connectors or butt connectors are permitted due to increased resistance and poor performance. If a pre-wired harness is being used, the pre-wired harness and use the harness that came with the interface instead.

•

If the light still doesn’t turn solid Red at the end of the programming sequence, refer to the Manual Programming document to manually program the interface to the vehicle (non-data vehicles only).

• For data communication vehicles: If the light still doesn’t turn solid Red at the end of programming, make sure all factory electronic modules are connected to the vehicle, i.e., climate control, upper display, push-to-start button... Reconnect the factory radio and make sure the steering wheel controls still function. Cycle the key off, reinstall the aftermarket equipment, then reset and reprogram the interface. If the light ﬁnally turned solid Red, cycle the ignition off/on, then test the steering wheel controls for functionality.

• For Metra Euro kits with an included AXSWC: The 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th Red light ﬂashes should be longer. If any of these ﬂashes are not longer, inspect that the following wires are connected (pin-out diagram shown to the right): Pin-4, Pin-5, Pin-8, Pin-11.

• If all steps have been performed and the light still doesn’t turn solid Red at the end of the programming sequence, update the interface to the latest software via axxessinterfaces.com. After updating, program the inteface to the vehicle following the vehicle speciﬁc document. If the interface still doesn’t turn solid Red at the end of the programming sequence, contact Tech Support at 386-257-1187 perform some tests in the vehicle when you contact Tech Support.
