PLEASE NOTE: A dedicated 49-Series patch lead MUST be ordered with this product. Please see full description
Steering wheel control interface and adapter cable for Audi cars with Quadlock connectors. Adapter cable to fit a new radio to the original connectors in the car with a built in interface to retain the use of the original radio steering wheel controls when fitting an aftermarket stereo upgrade.
The interface also provides a key present ignition supply, reverse gear, handbrake and speed pulse outputs and retains the use of the amplified speakers.

This cable adapts from the original connector in the car, known as a quadlock, to standard aftermarket connectors for the new stereo, known as ISO connectors. The CANbus steering wheel control interface will retain the use of the original radio controls on the steering wheel with an aftermarket stereo. The CANbus interface generates a key present ignition supply to the new stereo, this means the stereo will turn on with the first click of the key and stay on until the key is removed from the ignition barrel. The interface also generates speed pulse, reverse gear and handbrake output signals, these are used when installing multimedia, navigation units and reverse cameras. This interface is built into the Quadlock to ISO harness adapter so installation is plug and play.

The plug and play Quadlock to ISO cable also has a built in high to low level adapter for the rear amplified speakers.  The adapter allows the new stereo to work with the original amplifier which drives all the speakers in the car and the subwoofer. The high to low level adapter gives a much cleaner audio signal to the amplifier compared to using line output phono leads.


Installation Notes

Blue wire (Antenna turn-on Output) - Connect this to the separate blue wire usually found on our antenna adapters (21-120K, 21-139k) If not present please ignore this, it is not required!

Purple wire (Reverse Gear Output) - This wire will provide a signal to the vehicle's head unit when the vehicle is in reverse. This will trigger the video screen to show the video from the backup camera on the screen.

Pink wire (Speed Pulse Output) - Some stereos / navigation systems have a speed pulse wire and this tells the new stereo how fast or slow the vehicle is travelling.

Green wire (Parking Brake Output) - If your new stereo has a touchscreen or video monitor, this wire acts as a switch to turn on the video monitor when the parking brake is engaged.


PLEASE NOTE: A dedicated 49-Series patch lead MUST be ordered with this product. This links the steering control interface to the steering wheel control input on the back of the new stereo
