This cable adapts from the original connectors in the car, 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 interface also has an adjustable built in high to low level adapter for the Bose 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.
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
