Retain your car's factory features with a new radio
You want to install a new car stereo, but you don't want to lose the useful features built into your factory radio. The Axxess AX-HYKIA1-SWC interface gives you the ability to connect your new radio to the existing wiring in your compatible vehicle and still retain your steering wheel audio controls, the Blue Link system (if present), and the factory aux input. With the AX-HYKIA-SPDIF adapter (not included), you can also retain the use of your factory amplifier, but you'll lose your fader control.

Retained Factory Features: The Axxess Integrate AX-HYKIA1-SWC retains the following factory features in your vehicle after you have replaced the stock radio with an aftermarket head unit.
- Factory Amplifier: The Axxess Integrate AX-HYKIA1-SWC is designed for vehicles with or without amplified factory audio systems. However, vehicles with an amplified factory audio system, will also require the AX-HYKIA-SPDIF (sold separately).
- BlueLink: The AX-HYKIA1-SWC retains your vehicle's factory onboard BlueLink telematics and infotainment system (if equipped).
- Steering Wheel Controls: The Axxess Integrate AX-HYKIA1-SWC offers built-in SWC letting you retain your vehicle's factory steering wheel controls (no additional adapter required). Your aftermarket radio must be steering wheel control ready.
- Factory Aux: The AX-HYKIA1-SWC allows you to keep the vehicle's factory Aux input by using your aftermarket head unit's rear-panel Aux input.
- RAP (Retained Accessory Power): The AX-HYKIA1-SWC is compatible with your vehicle's RAP (Retained Accessory Power) feature, which keeps the radio on until on of the doors is opened.
- Factory USB (Non-Nav): The AX-HYKIA1-SWC can retain the factory USB port on non-navigation model vehicles. The 22-pin interface harness includes a male USB connector (Type-A, 2.0) that plugs into the aftermarket radio's USB input.
Note: The two included composite video harnesses will not be used.
Outputs: The Axxess Integrate AX-HYKIA1-SWC provides a 12V/10A accessory output and navigation outputs to make installation easier and less time consuming.
- 12V/10A Accessory Output: Since there is no 12V accessory wire in the vehicle's factory harness, the AX-HYKIA1-SWC is designed to provide a 12V/10A switched accessory output to your new aftermarket stereo, preventing you from having to run an accessory wire to the fuse box or underneath the steering column.
- Navigation Outputs: The Axxess Integrate AX-HYKIA1-SWC provides navigation outputs (VSS, Parking Brake, and Reverse) to help ease the installation process of an aftermarket navigation stereo.
The Axxess AX-HYKIA1-SWC Wiring Interface replaces these items
