RFASWC
The RFASWC is designed for adding steering wheel controls to vehicles
that do not have OE steering wheel controls installed. With Aftermarket
radio’s with steering wheel control outputs the RFASWC is able to
give the driver control of their aftermarket radio without taking their
hands off the steering wheel allowing you to maintain the most popular
feature your aftermarket radio has to offer. The RFASWC will come
pre-programmed with your standard commands, volume up, volume
down, seeks up, seek down, and source. In addition you will be able to
mount the RFASWC anywhere on the steering wheel and reprogram

Wiring The OESWC Interface
1. Connect the red wire to 12 volt accessory
2. Connect the Black wire to ground (you may use the same ground that
you use for the aftermarket radio)
If you are using an Eclipse or Kenwood radio, plug the female 3.5mm
connector with the Brown and Brown/White wires into the male 3.5mm
connector of the ASWC harness.
* For Kenwood radios: Connect the Kenwood SWC wire (normally Blue/
Yellow) to the Brown wire of the ASWC. Isolate and tape the Brown/White
wire, it will not be used.
* Kenwood Models: The following three models, DNX9960, DNX7160,
and DDX896, need a 10k to 12k ohm resistor between the Blue/Yellow of
the Kenwood and the Brown wire of the female 3.5 during programming.
After programming remove the resistor and reconnect the Blue/Yellow
and brown wire.
* For Eclipse radios: Connect the Eclipse SWC wires (Normally Brown
and Brown/Black) to the Brown and Brown/White wires of the ASWC.
Brown goes to Brown and Brown/White goes to Brown/Black.
Setting Up the RFASWC
1. Press the Red and Green buttons simultaneously for 5 seconds, and
then press volume up for two seconds. This will orientate your button
direction.

“marry“ the RFASWC to the interface.

and within the rst 10 seconds press and hold the source button for ten
seconds. This will “marry the new transmitter.
Programming the RFASWC
1. Complete connections to the vehicle and the aftermarket radio
* If this is the rst time the RFASWC is being installed in a vehicle:
2. Turn the ignition on; the led will start ashing rapidly which means the
ASWC is looking for the radio. Go to step 4.
Or
* If the RFASWC was installed in a vehicle before:
2. Turn the ignition on, the led will ash slowly
3. Hold down the reset button for more then 2 seconds but less then 10
seconds, the led will start ashing rapidly
4. After a couple of seconds the led should stop ashing and not light up
for 2 seconds.
