Wiring The OESWC Interface
1. Connect the red wire to 12 volt accessory
2. Connect the Black wire to ground (you may use the same ground that
you use for the aftermarket radio)
Setting Up The OESWC Transmitter
1. Press the Red and Green buttons simultaneously for 5 seconds, and
then press volume up for two seconds. This will orientate your button
direction.
2. Turn on the ignition and press volume up on the OESWC transmitter.
This will “marry“ the transmitter to the interface.
NOTE: If you are replacing a transmitter you must turn on the ignition
and within the rst 10 seconds press and hold the source button for ten
seconds. This will “marry the new transmitter.
Programming The OESWC Transmitter
1. Complete connections to the factory radio
* If this is the rst time the OESWC TRANSMITTER is being installed in a
vehicle:
2. Turn the ignition on; the led will start ashing rapidly which means the
OESWC interface is looking for the vehicle. Go to step 4.
Or
* If the OESWC TRANSMITTER was installed in a vehicle before:
2. Turn the ignition on, the led will ash once.
3. Hold down the reset button for more then 2 seconds but less then 10
seconds, the led will start ashing rapidly
4. After a couple of seconds the led should stop ashing and not light up
2

for 2 seconds.
5. This is the end of the auto detection stage. If the OESWC
TRANSMITTER detected the vehicles radio successfully the led will
light up solid red.
6. Make sure the steering wheel control buttons function correctly in the
vehicle and enjoy your radio.
So what if the led does not light up solid red? Check out troubleshooting
section below.
Troubleshooting the Auto Detect Mode
So you tried the auto detect feature and at the end the led did not stay on
solid red, it started ashing. That means the OESWC TRANSMITTER did
not detect the vehicles radio. Follow these couple steps to determine what
happened:
First some basic steps:
1. Verify that you have 12 volt accessory and a good ground to the
OESWC interface.
2. Verify that the battery is good on the OESWC transmitter.
3. Refer to the “Setting up the OESWC transmitter” section of this
manual and repeat those steps.
