For the steps below, the L.E.D. located inside the interface can only be seen while active. The
interface does not need to be opened to see the L.E.D.
• Start the vehicle.
• Connect the AX-HYKIA1-SWC harness to the wiring harness in the vehicle.
• The L.E.D. will initially turn on solid Green, then turn off for a few seconds while it auto
detects the radio installed.
• The L.E.D. will then flash Red up to (18) times indicating which radio is connected to the
interface, and then turn off for a couple of seconds. Pay close attention to how many Red
flashes there are. This will help in troubleshooting, if need be. Refer to the L.E.D. feedback
section for more information.
• After a couple seconds the L.E.D. will turn on solid Red while the interface auto detects the
vehicle. The radio will shut off at this point. This process should take 5 to 30 seconds.
• Once the vehicle has been auto detected by the interface, the L.E.D. will turn on solid Green,
and the radio will come back on, indicating programming was successful.
• Test all functions of the installation for proper operation, before reassembling the dash.
• If the interface fails to function, refer to Resetting the AX-HYKIA1-SWC.
Note:
The L.E.D. will turn on solid Green for a moment, and then turn off under normal
operation after the key has been cycled.

L.E.D. feedback
The (18) Red L.E.D. flashes represent which brand radio the AX-HYKIA1-SWC is connected to.
Each flash represents a different radio manufacturer. For example, if you are installing a JVC
radio, the AX-HYKIA1-SWC will flash Red (5) times, and then stop. Following is a legend that
dictates which radio Manufacturer corresponds to which flash.
L.E.D. feedback legend
* Note:
If the AX-HYKIA1-SWC flashes Red (7) times, and you do not have an Alpine radio connected
to it, that means the ASWC-1 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:
The 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. Refer to the “Programming Information” document online
.
‡ 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. Refer to the “Programming Information” document online.
