CONNECTIONS
3.5mm jack steering wheel control retention:
The 3.5mm jack is to be used to retain audio controls on the steering wheel.
• For the radios listed below: Connect the female 3.5mm connector with stripped leads, to the male
3.5mm SWC jack from the AXDIS-TY3 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 into the AXSWCH-PAR (sold
separately), then connect the 4-pin connector from the AXSWCH-PAR into 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 AXDIS-TY3 harness into the jack from the
aftermarket 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 connects to.

INSTALLING THE AXDIS-TY3
With the key in the off position:
1. Connect the 16-pin harness with stripped leads, and the AXDIS-TY3 harness into the
interface.
2. Connect the backup camera harness to the wiring harness in the vehicle.
Attention! Do not connect the AXDIS-TY3 harness to the wiring harness in the vehicle just yet.
Attention! If retaining steering wheel controls, ensure that the jack/wire is connected to
the radio before proceeding. If this step is skipped, the interface will need to be reset for the
steering wheel controls to function.
