Before You Start
A. Is this product compatible with the vehicle?
• Please visit http://www.pac-audio.com/swixprogramming/swixprogramming.asp for the most current list of
compatible vehicles.
B. Prepare for the installation.
• If possible, install the SWI-RC while you are installing the new head unit. Keep in mind you may need to plug in the
factory stereo to locate certain wires; therefore do not complete the head unit installation until the SWI-RC is work-
ing properly.
• Plan a general installation location for both the SWI-RC plug and the control body. Keep in mind that the supplied
wire harness is two feet long, and the 1/8" plug harness is three feet long.
• Use a multimeter or approved measuring device for checking vehicle circuits.

Steering Remote Ready Radios
For Alpine, Clarion, JVC, Pioneer, Sony or Valor radios, connect the SWI-RC 1/8" plug into the radio's Steering
Wheel input jack on back of radio or wire harness. For Kenwood or OEM radios, connect the blue/yel wire to the remote
Input wire (blue/yel or yel/blu for Kenwood, gray for OEM) of radio.
Blaupunkt radios with optional wireless remote inputs are supported by the SWI-RC, however we do not supply
any connectors or support for Blaupunkt. It is up to the consumer or installer to supply this connector. Use vehicle
Connector Chart and use VW connector as reference. Connect the SWI-RC's blue/yel wire to pin #11 of VW connector.
The connector you obtain may come with two of three pieces, however the connector (usually green) should show pin
#11 on it.
Please Note: The SWC input may be located on a
seperate harness instead of the radio chassis. Please refer
to the radio's installation manual before plugging in the
SWI-RC to be certain you are using the correct input to
prevent damage.
