Overview

by Crutchfield's

The Axxess MITO-02 wiring interface lets you install an aftermarket stereo in select 2007-13 Mitsubishi vehicles with the factory Rockford Fosgate audio system. The interface connects the new stereo with the factory amplifier, so you don't have to rewire your entire system. Warranty: 1 year.

KEEP READING

Important note: Your new stereo must have front and rear preamp outputs or you'll need a 4-channel line output converter to use this interface. Please enter your vehicle information or call an Advisor at 1-888-955-6000 to find out if this model is compatible with your vehicle.

Features

Mitsubishi Data Bus Interface:The MITO-02 Mitsubishi Data Bus Interface is designed specifically for select Mitsubishi vehicles with OEM factory installed Rockford Fosgate audio systems when installing an aftermarket headunit in the vehicle. The OEM factory installed Rockford Fosgate audio system uses a digital signal to turn on the factory installed amp in select Mitsubishi cars. The MITO-02 supplies that digital signal to turn the factory amplifier on. When installing an aftermarket radio that has navigation built-in, the MITO-02 can supply VSS (Vehicle Speed Sense), Parking Brake, and Reverse functions. However, Reverse is not available on manual transmission vehicles.

Note: The aftermarket radio must have two pair of preamp outputs in order to properly interface. If it does not, you will need a line output converter.

Vehicle Compatibility: Currently the MITO-02 is compatible with the following Mitsubishi vehicles equipped with an OEM factory installed Rockford Fosgate audio system.

2008-2013 Lancer
2007-2013 Outlander
2011-2013 Outlander Sport

Level Adjustment: There are two pentiometers next to the Molex plug on the MITO-02 interface. The one closest to the Molex connector is the subwoofer level control and the other is the front door speaker level control. Using a small blade screwdriver you can turn the potentiometer of the speaker you want to adjust either clockwise (to make it louder) or counterclockwise (to lower the volume).

Hello -- do I need this full harness for a Lancer with Rockford amp if I don't care about the data bus interface? I only want to be able to hear my cheap aftermarket stereo through the stock Lancer speakers. Is there a cheaper harness that will simply let me connect? Thanks.

You will want to contact an Advisor by phone (1-800-324-9695) or online chat to discuss compatibility with your factory system. They will be able to pull up your vehicle and see if this will integrate. If it does not, then they will also be able to discuss other options with you.

If you are replacing Mitsubishi OEM Radio & using the same Rockford Fosgate Original Amplifier that came from Mitsubishi, then it should work.

I recently installed the second CAN BUS since the first one had an issue that caused the radio not to turn on and I'm having issues with the new adapter now. Any Ideas for a fix?

[ Nico Nov 10, 2017 ]

1 answer

What issues are you having now? I also received a faulty adapter the first time. The second one has been working for almost a year now.

[ Brandon Nov 10, 2017 ]

Will this act as the main wire harness to connect to the new stereo, or is another harness required too (not including the steering wheel adapter)?

Will the steering wheel controls still work with this harness, or do I need to add something else?

[ Trenton Mar 30, 2015 ]

1 answer

The ability to retain steering wheel controls with aftermarket receivers will be determined by the receiver you are using and the vehicle you have. For full information on this type of integration (including the parts you will need) please contact an Advisor by phone (1-800-324-9695) or online chat.

[ KRISTINA Mar 31, 2015 ] Staff

I installed this in my 2010 Lancer Ralliart with the Rockford Fosgate system. Everything hooked up fine, wire colors matched up. Everything worked fine for awhile, but now the radio does not turn off with the ignition as it did before. I now have to manually turn off the head unit. Any ideas what it could be?
