Frequently Asked Questions - WVIFD-02F CRUX

Which vehicles are compatible with the CRUX WVIFD-02F?

The CRUX WVIFD-02F is compatible with Ford F-150, F-250, F-350, F-450, and F-550 models from 2013 to 2015, specifically those equipped with MyFord Touch radios and a factory A/V input.

How do I connect my smartphone to mirror the screen?

For iOS devices: Go to Settings > Wi-Fi, select the network 'Crux WiFi ***', then enable Screen Mirroring from Control Center and tap 'Crux WiFi ***'. For Android: From the drop-down drawer, press 'Quick Connect' and select 'Crux WiFi ***'. Ensure Power Saving Mode is off and Quick Connect is updated.

Does the WVIFD-02F support Netflix or other DRM-protected content?

No, due to Apple restrictions, the device does not support Netflix or any DRM-protected files on iOS devices. Mirroring of such content may result in a blank screen.

How do I access the virtual remote control?

Connect your phone to the 'Crux WiFi ***' network, open a web browser, and navigate to 192.168.59.254. The virtual remote control will appear, allowing you to play, pause, skip tracks, adjust volume, and browse USB media.

What is the purpose of the two modules (C-500 and C-125)?

The C-500 and C-125 modules are interchangeable interface modules that connect to the T-harness. They handle the integration with the factory display and provide the necessary signal conversion. The DIP switches on each module must be set correctly for your vehicle (e.g., factory rear-view camera presence).

How do I switch to the AV input from my factory radio?

Press and hold the LEFT Arrow button on the right side of the steering wheel controls for 3 seconds, then release. This toggles to the AV input source.

Can I add a rear-view camera using this interface?

Yes, the interface has an A/V input that can be used for a camera. Connect the camera's video and audio to the AV In / Video Out harness. Also, connect the BLUE A/V trigger wire to +12V to enable the camera input, optionally via a toggle switch.

Why is my screen going black after a few minutes?

This is likely due to your smartphone's screen timeout setting. Deactivate the auto-lock or screen timeout feature on your phone to keep the mirroring active continuously.

What are the DIP switch settings for a vehicle with a factory rear-view camera?

For vehicles equipped with a factory rear-view camera: On the C-125 module, set DIP switch 2 to ON; on the C-500 module, set DIP switch 2 to OFF. All other DIP switches should be OFF unless otherwise noted.

How do I update the firmware or software on this device?

The WVIFD-02F does not have user-updatable firmware. For any updates or issues, contact CRUX technical support or consult the official manual. Do not attempt to change system settings via the virtual remote's Setup menu, as it may interfere with functionality.
