5.2 Steering Wheel Control Wiring

For vehicles with existing steering wheel controls, you may need to connect the control wires. A common method involves connecting one steering control wire directly to the head unit's "KEY 1" input and grounding the other steering control wire to the vehicle's chassis. Refer to your vehicle's wiring diagram for specific wire identification. After physical connection, controls can be programmed via the head unit settings.

5.3 Amplifier Bypass (if applicable)

Some older vehicles, particularly those with premium sound systems (e.g., Infinity), may use a PCI bus or other non-standard methods to activate the factory amplifier. If you experience no sound after installation, you may need to bypass the factory amplifier. Consult a professional installer or vehicle-specific forums for guidance on bypassing your vehicle's factory amplifier.
