L.E.D. feedback

The (18) 

Red

 L.E.D. flashes represent what brand radio the ASWC-1 believes it is connected to. Each flash represents a different 

radio manufacturer. For example, if you are installing a JVC radio, the 

ASWC-1

 will flash (5) times. Following is a legend that 

dictates which manufacturer corresponds to which flash.

L.E.D. feedback legend

*  Note:

 

If the ASWC-1 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:

 

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.

1 flash - Eclipse (Type 1) †
2 flashes - Kenwood ‡
3 flashes - Clarion (Type 1) †
4 flashes - Sony / Dual
5 flashes - JVC

6 flashes - Pioneer / Jensen
7 flashes - Alpine *
8 flashes - Visteon
9 flashes - Valor
10 flashes - Clarion (Type 2) †
