23-226-AMP Interface for Kia Sportage 2010-2016 with Amplifier
The 23-226-AMP connects with the steering wheel
controls and amplifier of the 2010-2016 Kia
Sportage, including models with the Infinity sound
system.
This interface also includes auxillary port retention
and a reverse signal, speed pulse and parking brake
outputs. If the vehicle is equipped with an original
reverse camera, this is also retained.
Fade (left-right or front-rear) is not retained.
This part must be used with 23-235 digital amplifier
turn on interface. It will not work without it.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT CONNECT THE INTERFACE TO THE CAR UNTIL ALL CONNECTIONS TO THE RADIO ARE MADE.
PLEASE NOTE:
Connect the steering wheel control 3.5mm pactch lead or wire(s) before connecting the three plugs to the
vehicle. If this is not done, the interface will have to be reset.
CONNECTIONS TO THE NEW RADIO
1.Connect the 14 pin male plug to the amplifier interface 23-235 (SOLD SEPERATELY)
2. Connect the 22 and 16 pin male plugs to the supplied AXXESS AX-HYKIA2-SWC interface box
3. Connect the two 8 pin ISO connections (black and brown) to the new radio.
4. If the vehcile is fitted with a factory reverse camera, connect the yellow RCA connection to the
reverse camera input on the new radio.
5. If the vehicle is fitted with a factory aux connection, connect the red and white RCAs to the aux
inputs on the back of the new radio (if fitted)
6. If required, connect the loose reverse, handbrake and speedpulse output fly leeds to the inputs on the new radio
CONNECTING THE PATCH LEAD
Pioneer, Sony, Alpine
and some other head units use a 3.5mm jack to retain steering wheel controls. If your radio is
equipped with a 3.5mm jack (usually labeled remote or SWC,
not AUX
) connect the 3.5mm jack that is hardwired to
this interface.
For radios listed below, please add the two wire extension lead, pictured right,
to the 3.5mm jack and connect as follows:
Kenwood/JVC;
connect the Blue/Yellow system remote control wire to the
brown wire.
2 or 3 wire Resistive Programmable Radios;
connect SWC1/KEY1 to the brown
wire. Connect the second wire, usually labelled SWC2/KEY2 to the brown and
white wire. If the radio comes with a third steering wheel control wire for
ground/SWC ground then disregard this connection. Once the interface has
been programmed to the vehicle, refer to the manual for the radio for how to programme and assign the steering
wheel controls.
Do not connect the interface to the vehicle yet! Move to programming the interface overleaf.
RESETTING THE INTERFACE
If the interface has already been connected to the car then it will need to be reset. Press and hold the blue button
between the two connections on the AXXESS box for two seconds. The interface does not need to be opened.
