\*\* SPECIAL NOTE:

On 2013 Toyota Sequoia and Tundra, the parking brake wire (RED wire) is in position#1 on the OEM 28-pin connector. Please insert the YELLOW/BLACK wire on the SWRTY-61N harness into position#1. For all other models, please insert into position# 15. Please check that you are inserting the pin into the correct location as it is difficult to remove it again. The locking tab of the pin should be facing UP when it is inserted into the connector.

3.5MM SWC CABLE

Plug in the 3.5MM to 4-Pin SWC cable to the SWC module and to the SWC port of the aftermarket radio. Use the Blue/Yellow wire for Kenwood/JVC radios.

NOTE: Insulate the Blue/Yellow wire or the 3.5mm plug if not being used.

For aftermarket radios that have wires for SWC connections, cut off the 3.5mm plug on the Crux SWC Cable and connect the SWC wires as follows:

Pure electrical circuit lines without any symbols

RED to SWC Key 1 WHITE to SWC Key 2 SHIELD to SWC Ground

Note that there are some radios that only have SWC1 and SWC2, in this case "shield" does not need to be connected.

24 TO 16 PIN ADAPTER:

Some vehicles do not have the 24-Pin Video Input connector. Instead, they have a 16-Pin connector that controls the video input for the camera. Use the optional adaptor and connect to the T-harness to convert the harness to work with the 16-Pin connector style.

TO SWC HARNESS

(Use instead of Yellow/Black Wire on Main Harness)

VEHICLE APPLICATIONS:

Note: Identify Alpine SWC learning radios by checking for three SWC cables and a SWC learn menu, instead of a 3.5mm SWC input.

If Interface has one SWR-100 Cable included If Interface has two SWR Cables included

1 - Find the included SWC adapter cable.

1 - Identify appropriate SWC adapter cable. Do not use cable with Blue / Yellow wire.

2 - Prepare the SWC Cable: Cut the SWC cable. You will find a red wire, a white wire, and a ground (shield) wire inside.

3 - Adjust the Module Settings: Set the module to the Pioneer dip switch setting. This configures the module to communicate correctly with the Alpine radio.

4 - Configure the Alpine Radio: On your Alpine radio, select the setting that includes an adapter for SWC. This ensures the radio will recognize the steering wheel controls.

5 - Connect the Wires: Connect both the SWC1 and SWC2 wires from aftermarket radio to the red wire from our SWC cable. Connect the SWC ground wire to the shield (ground) wire of our SWC cable. These steps should enable the steering wheel controls on your Alpine iLX series radio.

1. Program the SWC: Navigate to the SWC settings on your Alpine radio to assign and test each control function.
