PAC SWI-PS steering wheel interface PROBLEM
I have a PAC SWI-PS and I have had it hooked up for 6 months now. It has worked great for 6 months but now I is getting buttons mixed up. I have reprogrammed it and it worked for a day then it messed up the buttons again. Any one else had this problem? I have it hooked up to a Pioneer AVH-P4000dvd if that helps. Do you think it just went bad??

could be the unit but might also be the install. How is it hooked up?
|
Well I added extra pins to my Metra harness. I then connected the green SWI-PS 's Green wire to Pin A9. I then connected pin A10 to the remote wire comming out of my deck. I hooked the red wire to the fuse box on ignition and grounded the black wire.
|
sorry what i meant was did you use butt connectors? wrapped the wire and taped? soldered the connections? ect
i would redo the install all straight soldered and see if it makes a difference. |
I soldered alll of the connections. It just doen't make much sense to me why it worked so good then quit. I'am guessing the unit went bad.
|
possibly.. they are also very sensitive so if you have some sort of connection that isn't directly soldered on to the wire it could have caused it
|
make sure when you program them when you press the steering wheel buttons you hold in down for an extra 10 seconds after it blinks i have had some problems like that b4
|
also, start the car, then program it, cause sometimes the battery power is different enough from the operating alternator voltage that it miss-programs. (it remembers the resistance it sees with the button presses and if you only have 11 volts from the battery, but 14.2 from the alt, you will get a different reading with the resistance.)
|
I did program it with the car running. I did some checking and the PAC web sight says If you are using the SWI-PS on a Pioneer AVH series radio, the revision number of the SWI-PS MUST be 1.6.7 or higher to be compatible. What ever that means? Any one know?
|
no clue but would like an answer as im going to instal the pac swips also :(
|
haven't had an issues with mine... been about 4 months at least now
and my radio comes out more often then most id assume |
Mine works ok. Every now and then it gets confused. I don't know what the problem is. It stops working right when it gets hot out.
|
Reprogram it at the n3w tempurature setting....
