TROUBLESHOOTING TABLE
PROBLEM SOLUTION
Steering wheel controls do not work but LED on the Maestro does
blink when steering wheel buttons are pressed.
Verify the buttons are set up in the flash. If any button is set to “none” for “press
once”, it will do nothing. “Hold” column can be left as none and the “press once”
function will operate with one press and when holding the button.
Ensure the blue 4-pin steering wheel control cable is connected between the
Maestro and the radio. The radio will use either the 3.5mm jack OR the blue/yellow
wire, not both.
Connect the 3.5mm jack from the Maestro blue 4-pin cable to the radio’s 3.5mm port
(labeled steering, remote, or wheel). If no such port exists, wire the blue/yellow to
blue/yellow (Kenwood/JVC) or to the radio’s Key 1 wire (brands not listed/other) and
secure the 3.5mm jack. It will not be used.
Refer to radio’s owner’s manual to verify if the radio has this function:
Alpine models with button learning (SWI1/2/GND wires on back of radio): Connect
blue/yellow wire from the blue 4-pin to the radio’s SWI1 input. Manually learn the
buttons to the radio in the radio steering wheel control menus.
JVC/Kenwood - Steering Wheel Control (ON/OFF): choose ON
Nakamichi – if model is listed, ensure PAC mode is on. If “other”, learn the
buttons in the radio steering wheel menu.
Sony - Steering Wheel Control (Custom/Preset): choose Preset. If phone buttons
do not operate properly, flash the module as Pioneer – 2009 and newer with BT.
Then select “custom” instead of “preset” and learn the buttons in the radio menu.
Other brands – radio should have a steering wheel menu to learn the buttons.
You may have to select type A/B/C/1/2/3 and try learning again if buttons are
not saving. Refer to radio manufacturer’s tech support for further advice if not
learning properly.
Radio does not turn on. Test red and yellow wires for DC voltage at radio using a multimeter. Contact support
if no voltage on red or yellow.
If installing a modular radio and it is not turning on, ensure the screen is secured
and any trim pieces on the radio have been installed fully.
The radio goes go to the camera screen but there is no image from
the backup camera.
Ensure the 12-pin connector from the 4” factory screen is plugged into the 12 pin
plug of the F150 T-harness, and that the Backup cam RCA is plugged into the rear
camera input of the radio.
The dash panel of the K150 lights up, then turns off after a few
seconds. Climate controls are blowing full heat.
Ensure the cable with 4-pin red connectors plugged to the K150 dash panel is
labeled GEN 2.
During the module programming, ensure you selected K150 as the accessory and
not FO2.
MAESTRO RR RESET PROCEDURE:
Turn the key to the OFF position, then disconnect all connectors from the module.
Press and hold the module’s programming button and connect all the connectors back to the module. Wait, the module’s LED will flash RED rapidly (this may
take up to 10 seconds).
Release the programming button. Wait, the LED will turn solid GREEN for 2 seconds to show the reset was successful.
