yes it does, however I disconnected it because after installation, the radio was too dim to see in the daylight, after disconnecting it the radio is very bright now.

CRUX SWRTY-61C Wiring Interface
Crutchfield customer from Lincoln, NE on 6/20/2019
2018 Toyota Camry
Works Well, integrates nicely into the 2018 Camry this was put into. Steering Wheel controls work well and the instructions are very clear how to get it to work. Not a very difficult harness either, easy enough to make fit and not a whole lot of wiri g to do. Only thing I can see as a problem is that there are a couple of features missing like mute function and illumination wire. Not a big deal overall but beware that those are a couple missing features.
Pros: Works Well Easy Integration
Cons: Missing a couple of features that would be nice to have otherwise.

Exactly what I needed
Crutchfield customer from Los Angeles, CA on 5/3/2019
2019 Toyota Camry
I purchased this needing it to retain my factory settings. My vehicle is a 2019 Camry with no supreme sound. No local shops had the harness and they were guessing, one shop didn't even wanna touch my vehicle because it was too new. So I did it myself. This harness came with everything I needed and was color coded to make things alot easier took me a good hr to make a connection and very happy with the outcome even have my steering controls
Pros: Color coded and diagram made everything easier to plug and play Even came with pdf manual to to removal and installation of radio housing which I did not need
Cons: None comes to mind

Features
Radio Replacement Interface for Toyota: The CRUX SWRTY-61C is a radio replacement interface for select 2016-up Toyota vehicles. It facilitates the integration of an aftermarket radio to enable retention of certain factory features such as the factory back-up camera, auxiliary audio input, USB port, and steering wheel controls.
Vehicle Compatibility: The CRUX SWRTY-61C is supported by the following 2016-up Toyota vehicles (as of 1/16/2019).
| Make | Model | Year |
| Toyota | Avalon | 2019-up |
| Camry | 2018-up | |
| CH-R | 2018-up | |
| Mirai | 2016-up | |
| Sienna | 2018-up |
Steering Wheel Control Compatible: The CRUX SWRTY-61C features a steering wheel control output for compatible aftermarket head units. The steering wheel control output consists of a right-angle 3.5mm connector and a blue/yellow wire (use the connection that your aftermarket head unit is fitted with). There is also SWC adapter for aftermarket radios with a 3-wire steering wheel control input. The SWRTY-61C will work with any of the listed aftermarket head units that feature a steering wheel control input using the appropriate connector and setting the interface module's eight dip-switches (see owner's manual for appropriate setting).
- 3.5mm Connector: Alpine, Clarion, Pioneer, Sony, Jensen, Older JVC
- Blue/Yellow Wire: Kenwood, Newer JVC
- 3-Wire Adapter: Other aftermarket radios with SWC Key 1, SWC Key 2, and SWC Ground wires
Retains Backup Camera: The CRUX SWRTY-61C will retain your vehicle's factory back-up camera; the included harness contains a male composite video connector that plugs into the female composite video camera input on the back of your aftermarket head unit.
Retains USB Port: The included USB adapter allows you to retain the factory USB port. This port is handy for connecting your USB devices and keeping your smartphone charged. This USB port does not support Android Auto or Apple CarPlay.
Auxiliary Input Retention: You also get to keep your vehicle's factory 3.5mm Aux input. The included harness contains male stereo RCA connectors which plug into your aftermarket head unit's rear-panel Aux input. If your aftermarket head unit contains a 3.5mm Aux input, then you will need a female stereo RCA to male stereo minijack adapter cable (sold separately).
Navigation Outputs: The CRUX SWRTY-61C radio replacement interface module provides a VSS (vehicle speed sense), Parking Brake, and a Reverse Gear output to make installing an aftermarket navigation radio simpler and less time consuming.
