General Dip Switch Configuration Guidelines:
- SWC DIP: Set according to your aftermarket radio brand (e.g., Pioneer, Kenwood, Alpine, Sony, JVC, etc.). Consult the CRUX SOOGM-16 quick reference guide or CRUX website for specific brand settings.
- CAN DIP: Typically set based on vehicle year and system type (e.g., Bose ampbekræftet eller ikke-ampbekræftet).
- Bose DIP: Set to 'ON' for Bose amplified systems, 'OFF' for non-Bose or non-amplificerede systemer.
Incorrect dip switch settings can lead to improper functionality or damage.
2. Ledningsforbindelser
Connect the CRUX SOOGM-16 wiring harness to your aftermarket radio's harness. Match wire colors and functions carefully. Common connections include:
- Strøm/Jord: Red (Accessory), Yellow (Constant 12V), Black (Ground).
- Højttalerkabler: Front Left, Front Right, Rear Left, Rear Right (Positive and Negative).
- Belysning: Orange (Illumination/Dimmer).
- Reverse/Parking Brake: If applicable for your aftermarket radio.
- Ratbetjening (SWC): Connect the 3.5mm jack from the SOOGM-16 harness to the SWC input on your aftermarket radio. If your radio uses a wired SWC input (e.g., Key1, Key2), refer to the SOOGM-16 wiring diagram for specific wire connections.
- OnStar/Chime Output: These are managed by the SOOGM-16 module and integrated into the main harness.
- Antenneadapter: Connect the provided antenna adapter between the vehicle's antenna cable and the aftermarket radio's antenna input.
Ensure all connections are secure using crimp connectors or solder and heat shrink tubing. Avoid loose connections.
3. Modultilslutning
- Once all wiring harness connections are made between the aftermarket radio and the SOOGM-16 harness, connect the SOOGM-16 harness to the CRUX SOOGM-16 interface module.
- Connect the vehicle's factory harness to the corresponding connectors on the SOOGM-16 harness.
- Tilslut køretøjets negative batteripol igen.
4. Test
Before fully reassembling the dashboard, perform the following tests:
- Turn on the vehicle ignition and verify the aftermarket radio powers on.
- Test all audio functions (radio, auxiliary inputs, USB, Bluetooth).
- Verify steering wheel controls function correctly (volume up/down, track skip, mode).
- Confirm OnStar functionality (if applicable).
- Listen for factory warning chimes (e.g., door open, seatbelt reminder).
If any functions are not working, refer to the Troubleshooting section of this manual.
Betjeningsvejledning
The CRUX SOOGM-16 interface operates automatically once correctly installed and configured. It translates the vehicle's data signals to allow your aftermarket radio to function seamlessly with retained factory features.
Steering Wheel Controls (SWC)
Your factory steering wheel controls will operate the aftermarket radio as programmed. Common functions include:
- Lydstyrke op/ned: Justerer lydudgangsniveauet.
- Track Up/Down: Skips tracks or changes radio presets.
- Tilstand/kilde: Cycles through available audio sources on the aftermarket radio.
- Stum: Slår lyden fra.
Note: Specific button assignments may vary depending on your vehicle and aftermarket radio model. Some aftermarket radios may require a learning process for SWC functionality, which should be detailed in the radio's instruction manual.
OnStar-retention
The SOOGM-16 retains the factory OnStar system. When OnStar is activated, the audio will mute through the aftermarket radio, and the OnStar audio will be heard through the vehicle's speakers. The OnStar microphone and controls will function as they did with the factory radio.
Warning Chimes
All factory warning chimes (e.g., door ajar, seatbelt, low fuel) will be retained and reproduced through the vehicle's audio system, ensuring critical alerts are still audible.
Opretholdelse
The CRUX SOOGM-16 Radio Replacement Interface is a sealed electronic module and requires no routine maintenance. Ensure it is installed in a dry, secure location within the dashboard, away from excessive heat or moisture.
Periodically check all wiring connections for security, especially if experiencing intermittent issues. Avoid exposing the module to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
