DIP SWITCH SETTINGS:

AFTERMARKET RADIO DIP SWITCH SETTINGS:

SWC MODULE DIP SWITCH

Diagram showing a 3-position DIP switch labeled 1, 2, 3.

NOTE: For Atoto, Blaupunkt, Dual, Farenheit, Power Acoustik, Soundstream, and most off-brand radios, check the aftermarket radio's manual to see if the SWC buttons need to be programmed.

4-PIN SWC CABLE

Use the proper 3.5MM to 4-Pin SWC cable for the aftermarket radio you are using.

OPTION A is used for ALPINE, CLARION, JVC, and KENWOOD units (Blue/Yellow wire is attached)

OPTION B is used for ATOTO, BLAUPUNKT, BOSS, DUAL, FARENHEIT, JENSEN, POWER ACOUSTIK, PIONEER, SONY, SOUNDSTREAM and Most Off-Brand Radios.

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

For aftermarket radios that have wires instead of a 3.5mm plug for SWC connection, cut off the 3.5mm plug on the Crux SWC Cable (option B) and connect the SWC wires as follows:

Wiring:

• 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.
