Advanced Subwoofer Amplifier Interface for 

for Select Chrysler / Dodge / Jeep Vehicles

APSUB-CH21

Setup and Configuration

1. 

Turn the ignition on. LED 1 on the interface will turn on and the +12v remote output will turn on.

2. 

Set the amp gain(s) to the desired level. We recommend using an oscilloscope and test tones to set the amp gain(s). 

Please refer to the MECP Advanced study guide (p. 360) if you are unfamiliar with this process.

3. 

Check volume, balance, fade and EQ settings.

4. 

If you would like to adjust the minimum volume, do so using one of the methods outlined below. If you are happy with the 

default level, no adjustment is necessary.

Manually Setting the Minimum Volume 

If the minimum volume of the radio (factory radio volume level 1) is too loud, you can manually set the level of the minimum 

volume using either the programming button on the side of the interface or the factory SWC. If you would like to set the 

minimum volume using the AmpPRO app, please proceed to the AmpPRO App section.

PLEASE NOTE: Level control knob must be connected to module for either of the following methods.

Installation 

1. 

Remove factory radio.

2. 

Disconnect the gray 22-pin factory harness connector from radio.

3. 

Connect APSUB harness to vehicle harness.

4. 

Connect APSUB harness to factory radio.

5. 

Set any feature DIP switches that apply to your install.
  - Set DIP switch 2 on (down) to lower the RCA output voltage to 4v. Leave DIP switch 2 off (up) to keep the 

RCA output voltage at 5v. 

   - DIP switches 1, 3, and 4 are not used.

6.  Connect the APSUB harness to the module.

7.  Connect the level control knob to the module and install in an accessible location.

aftermarket amplifier to the APSUB.
