STEERING WHEEL CONTROL SETTINGS
L.E.D. feedback
The (18) Red L.E.D. flashes represent what brand radio the AX-FD2-SWC believes it is
connected to. Each flash represents a different radio manufacturer. For example, if you are
installing a JVC radio, the AX-FD2-SWC will flash (5) times. Following is a legend that dictates
which manufacturer corresponds to which flash.
L.E.D. feedback legend
1st flash is for Eclipse (Type 1) †
2nd flash is for Kenwood ‡
3rd flash is for Clarion (Type 1) †
4th flash is for Sony/Dual
5th flash is for JVC
6th flash is for Pioneer/Jensen
7th flash is for Alpine *
8th flash is for Visteon
9th flash is for Valor
* Note: If the AX-FD2-SWC flashes Red (7) times, and you do not have an Alpine radio
connected to it, that means the AX-FD2-SWC does not detect a radio connected it. Verify
that the 3.5mm jack is connected to the correct steering wheel jack/wire in the radio.
** Note: Part number AX-SWC-PARROT is required (sold separately). Also, the Parrot radio
must be updated to rev. 2.1.4 or higher through www.parrot.com.
† Note: If you have a Clarion radio and the steering wheel controls do not work, change the radio
type to the other Clarion radio type; same for Eclipse. The following section explains how to do this.
‡ Note: If you have a Kenwood radio and the L.E.D. feedback comes back as showing as a JVC
radio, change the radio type to a Kenwood. The following section explains how to do this.
