Peripheral Electronics PESWIPS User Manual

Troubleshooting Guide

No power / won’t go into programming mode:

• Check Red wire connection and fuse. Make sure INTERFACE is connected to switched +12volts, not constant +12volts.

• Make sure vehicle ignition is on.

The INTERFACE controls the stereo immediately without pressing any buttons on the steering wheel:

• During programming, press the buttons on the steering wheel fi rmly until the left LED turns off. Releasing the button too early
will cause the INTERFACE to send out a signal even when no buttons are pressed.

The INTERFACE controls the radio whenever the steering wheel is turned (mostly late 80’s early 90’s Honda/Acura).

• Program the INTERFACE for version #11.

When ever I program a new button the previous button does not work.

• You must program all buttons during programming. If you try to program another button, all previous button will be erased. You
will have to relearn all previous buttons again.

Before Y ou Start

A. Is this product compatible with the ve hi cle?

• See application guide (seperate sheet) for listing of vehicles and connection information. If not, check www.
peripheralelectronics.com for an updated list of com pat i ble vehicles.

B. Prepare for the installation.

• If possible, install the PESWIPS while you are installing the new head unit. Keep in mind you may need to plug in
the factory stereo to locate certain wires; therefore do not complete the head unit installation until the PESWIPS is
working properly.

• Plan a general installation location for both the PESWIPS plug and the control body. Keep in mind that the sup­plied wire harness is two feet long, and the 1/8" plug harness is three feet long.

• Use a multimeter or approved measuring device for checking vehicle circuits.

Wiring Connections

11-29-05

Appendix A: Known Incompatible Vehicles

Note: Only 3 wires will be used during installation. Only GM vehicles programmed for version #4, will use 4 wires.

Step 1.

Connect the BLACK
wire to ground (-).

Verifi cation: Wire
or location reg is ters
a con stant (-) when
probed.

Step 2.

Connect the RED wire
to switched +12V.

Verifi cation: Wire reg-
isters +12V when the
ignition key is turned
to the ACC or ON posi-

tions.

Step 3.

Connect the ap pro pri ate in ter face wire (WHITE, YELLOW, ORANGE or
GREEN).

• Refer to the Identifi cation and Connection Chart. Locate the vehicle and
note the SWC wire color in the “In ter face Wire Color” column.

• Note the vehicle wire color and lo ca tion in for ma tion in the “Iden ti fi ca tion”
col umn.
Note: You will only connect ONE of these wires. The other 3 wires will not
be used. Cut and insulate the un used wires.

• Connect the wire as indicated in the chart.

Toyota All-2003 Sienna
Volkswagen 2002-up All vehicles

Appendix B: Resistor Kit

Some vehicles have a seperate wire for each of the steering wheel buttons. Use this resistor kit for the steering wheel
push buttons that do not already have a resistor network connected to them. Examples are Nissan and Harley Davidson
motorcycles.

Connect a resistor to each side of a push button and connect the other ends of the resistor all together. Connect the SWI­X to these resistors. On the Harley Davidson, one button can be connected directly to the SWI-X.

Step 4

If necessary, perform the following operations as indicated by the notes in Identifi cation and Connection Chart.

Step 4a.

Con nect the BLUE
serial data wire.
Connect this wire
ONLY on GM
pas sen ger ve hi cles (no
trucks or SUVs) with
airbags AND steering
wheel heater controls.
For all other vehicles,
cut and insulate the

BLUE wire.

Note: Step 4a is for vehicles made by
General Motors that are programmed
for version #4 only. If no con nec tions is
necessary, proceed to Step 4b.

By putting two or more resistor in series, you can come up with additional values. Ex. 150 + 1000 + 1500 = 2650ohms.

Step 4b.

If instructed by the

Vehicle Application
Guide, cut the

BROWN wire loop and
insulate both halves.

Step 4c.

If instructed by the
Vehicle Application
Guide, cut the VIOLET
wire loop and insulate
both halves, or place a
resistor in-line of wires.

Testing the PESWIPS

Note: For Sony head units, please refer to the note below.

Test each Heater function of the steering wheel controls. The
TEMP and FAN should work properly. When testing the audio
controls, the left LED on the PESWIPS will fl ash indicating it
is sending a command. If any function does not work, repeat
the pro gram ming in struc tions (starting from Step 11) or refer to

Troubleshooting Guide.

Sony Head Units only!: If the Volume and Track/

Seek settings are reversed, you need to program the head
unit to reverse the input. Please refer to the radio's Owners
Manual to change this feature for the wired remote.
