1. Press and hold the Volume Up button on the steering wheel.
2. Turn the ignition on, the L.E.D. in the ASWC-1 interface will start flashing rapidly, which
means the ASWC-1 interface is looking for the vehicle and the radio.
3. After a few seconds the L.E.D. should stop flashing rapidly, then go out for approximately 2
seconds.
4. After 2 seconds there will be a series of 7 Green flashes, some short, and some long.
The long flashes represent the wires that are connected from the vehicle to the ASWC-1
interface. The 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th flashes should be longer.
5. The L.E.D. will pause for another 2 seconds, then flash Red up to 18 times depending on
which radio is connected to the ASWC-1 interface. Refer to the L.E.D. Feedback section for
more information.
6. This is the end of the auto detection stage. If the ASWC-1 interface detected the vehicle and
radio successfully, the L.E.D. will light up solid. If not, refer to the troubleshooting documents
available at axxessinterfaces.com/product/ASWC-1.
7. Test all functions of the installation for proper operation before reassembling the dash. Refer
to the ASWC-1 Steering Wheel Control documents available at
axxessinterfaces.com/product/ASWC-1 for customizing the buttons, if so desired.

L.E.D. Feedback
The (18) Red L.E.D. flashes represent the brand of radio the ASWC-1 interface believes it is
connected to. Each flash count represents a different radio Manufacturer. For example, if you
are installing a JVC radio, the ASWC-1 interface will flash Red (5) times, then stop. Following is a
legend that explains which radio Manufacturer corresponds to the flash count provided.
L.E.D. feedback legend
* If the ASWC-1 interface flashes Red (7) times, and an Alpine radio is not installed, that means
an open connection. Verify that the 3.5mm jack is connected to the correct steering wheel
jack/wire in the radio.
** The AX-SWC-PARROT is required (sold separately). Also, the software in the radio must be rev.
2.1.4 or higher.
† If a Clarion radio is installed and the steering wheel controls do not function, change the radio
type to the opposite Clarion radio type; likewise for Eclipse. Refer to the Changing Radio Type
document available at axxessinterfaces.com/product/ASWC-1.
‡ If a Kenwood radio is installed and the L.E.D. feedback comes back showing as a JVC radio,
change the radio type to Kenwood. Refer to the Changing Radio Type document available at
axxessinterfaces.com/product/ASWC-1.
