Introduction and Features
Important Notes
The RP4.2-TY13 interface allows the replacement of a factory radio in select Toyota vehicles and will retain factory
features such as steering wheel controls (SWC), rear camera and the factory audio amplier. This interface also allows
you to program two radio functions to each SWC button by using short press long press dual command functionality,
and also provides outputs such as: vehicle speed signal (VSS), illumination, reverse trigger and parking brake.
1. Adjustment of the vehicle settings through the original radio’s vehicle settings menu will be disabled after installation of the new
radio. It is advised to make sure all settings are as desired prior to removal of the original radio.
2. The RP4.2-TY13 does not retain Rear Seat Entertainment.
3. Speaker fading on factory amplied systems is only supported with the “amplied output” connection of the RP4.2-TY13.
4. When using real time fade, if the fader setting is biased more to the front or rear, as the radio turns on the sound may begin at the
default setting and then quickly transition to your custom setting.
5. Aftermarket radio features such as High Pass Filters (crossovers), DSP or “Network Mode” will interfere with proper fader function.
In order for the RP4.2-TY13’s fader function to work, the audio from the aftermarket radio’s output must match so it can compare the
front and rear audio levels and determine the proper fader setting for the factory amplier.
6. A USB adapter must be purchased in order to retain the factory USB port. Please refer to www.pac-audio.com to see which harness
you will need.
7. To retain AM/FM Radio and SiriusXM Radio, additional parts and adapters are required and sold separately.

Default Steering Wheel Control Programming
IMPORTANT! The interface comes pre-programmed for all of the vehicles factory SWC functions and does not require
programming unless you wish to re-assign the SWC functions or utilize short press long press dual command functionality. The
SWC can always be restored to default settings by pressing and releasing the program button on the side of the interface once
and waiting 7 seconds for the LED to ash 3 times.
Optional Steering Wheel Control Programming
If you wish to re-assign the SWC functions, utilize short press long press dual command functionality, the interface must be
programmed in the specic order shown in the chart on page 4. If you come across a function in the chart that your steering
wheel does not have, or you do not want to program, press and release the programming button on the side of the interface to
skip that function. The LED will ash off and on conrming that you have successfully skipped that function and are ready to
proceed to the next one.
Short Press Long Press Dual Command Functionality
This feature allows you to assign two aftermarket radio functions to each of the vehicles SWC buttons. It can be used with as
many of the buttons as the user likes or none at all. When this functionality is implemented, quickly pressing and releasing a
SWC button will initiate the short press command while pressing and holding a SWC button for longer than two seconds will
initiate the long press command. Please note that no long press commands are programmed by default. If you wish to assign
dual command functionality to the SWC please follow the programming steps on the next page.

Optional Programming Order
5. If you come across a function in the chart that your steering wheel does not have, or you do not want to program, press and
release the program button on the side of the interface to skip that function.
6. Once programming is completed, wait seven seconds. The LED will ash three times indicating end of programming.
7. Test the interface for proper functionality. Whenever a SWC is pressed the LED on the interface should blink. If any function
does not work, repeat the programming steps.
SWC Re-Calibration Procedure
1. Turn the key to the ignition position.
2. Press and hold the programming button until the LED begins blinking amber.
When the LED begins blinking, release the programming button. The LED will
light solid amber.
3. Within 7 seconds, press and hold the button that is to be learned on the steering
wheel. The LED will turn off when the button is pressed and begin blinking when
the value has been learned. Once the LED begins blinking, release the button.
Please Note: the buttons must be calibrated in the order shown in the chart.
If you press the wrong button the LED will not respond at all.
4. If you need to program more buttons, repeat step 3 for each additional audio
function on the steering wheel.
5. If you come across a function in the chart that your steering wheel does not
have, press and release the program button on the side of the interface to skip
that function.
6. Once programming is completed, wait seven seconds. The LED will ash
indicating end of programming.
7. Test the interface for proper functionality. Whenever a SWC is pressed the
LED on the interface should blink. If any function does not work, repeat the
programming steps.
After you have re-calibrated the SWC buttons, the default SWC button assignments will be the same as what is listed in the
chart on page 3. If you wish to re-assign button functions you must also go through the programming listed above (Optional
SWC Programing Procedure).
Optional SWC Programming Procedure
1. Turn the key to the ignition position.
2. Press and release programming button on the side of the interface. The Status LED will turn green.
3. Within 7 seconds, press the button that is to be learned on the steering wheel. The LED will turn red when the button is pressed.
At this point you have two options:
A. For short press functionality: Release the button within 1.5 seconds. The LED will turn back on.
B. For long press functionality: Hold the button until the LED starts blinking. Release the button and the LED will
go back to solid.
4. If you need to program more buttons, repeat step 3 for each additional audio function on the steering wheel.

1. Turn the ignition on. The LED on the interface will turn on and the +12v accessory wire will turn on.
2. Turn on the radio and check volume, balance and fade. If you do not hear any audio you may need to cycle the ignition to
initialize the factory amplier.
3. If the overall volume is too low, use the gain adjustment on the side of the RP4.2 interface to set it to the desired level. The
best way to do this is to turn the volume on the radio to 3/4 volume, then turn the gain on the RP4.2 until some distortion is
heard, then back it down a little.
4. If you have a JBL system and there is no audio, please make sure the Blue / White wire in the radio connector is hooked up
properly. If there is still no audio, reset the interface according to the procedure in the next section.
5. If fading is acting inconsistent, please ensure that all speakers are connected to the proper polarity.
6. Verify that all SWC are functioning properly. If any of the SWC are not functioning properly you may need to reset the
interface or follow the re-calibration procedure above.
7. The LED and radio will turn off when the ignition is turned off.
Restoring Factory Settings
You can restore the interface to factory default settings by pressing and holding the programming button on the side of the module
until the status LED starts blinking red. Once the LED starts blinking red, release the button. You must release the button while
the LED is blinking red in order to perform the reset. Please note, the LED will go through two stages before it starts blinking red.
First it will blink green, then amber, then red.
This reset will restore the following settings to their factory defaults:
• SWC Mapping
• Factory Amplier Settings
• Real Time Fade will be reset to on
