Hi there
I have a Joying VW Unit with Sofia and GTX Rom. It has the canbus option, but my car doen't have factory steering wheel buttons.
I ordered the joying universal steering wheel controller (not the bluetooth version).
This one:

In the comments they say it's not possible to add this controller to a vw canbus unit.
Is it just software? Any way to bring the unit to "universal" unit? Or any way to skip the canbus option?
Regards

They are correct, in units that use canbus, the key1 and key2 wires are used to talk to the canbus module. You need the Bluetooth version.
... and if i don't need the canbus module? Actually it's just to show door open. i really don't need it.
Or is it hardware based and i have to do soldering work?

Hello!
Can someone confirm that this Steering wheel control work on the new universal Joying HU's?
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01NH0ST1T
It has the exact same wires to connect as the Joying SWC but this looks so much better and have more buttons
Cheers
Joying has told me that only the universal head units can use aftermarket SWC buttons. I have a VW-specific model and they don't work.

I have noticed that Joying likes to lie or be ignorant about things.
This is the one that I use in my Kia for my joying intel unit.

I never needed one until this new intel unit and they keep telling me that I connected it wrong despite my other 2 Joying units working.
Digital 3wire SWC
Simply yes its a digital 3 wire connection.. However just because the wires are hooked up doesnt mean its prograed to know which button is which. This must be done manually. Its the same for Sony or Pioneer.
Hello,
I bought an Android unit on July and after some troubleshooting everything was working fine. Now I have a problem. I have a Renault Clio 4 Pre-Restyling and steering wheel controls are managed by CAN-BUS. The problem is that Volume controls and radio station change don't work if I don't turn on Head Lights. Other canbus functionalities seem to be working fine. For example when I open doors I can see them on my video. Could it be the CanBus decoder faulty or I have to check some wire connection? Thank you
Anyone can help me? Do you need any further information? Is it possible to know the pinout of CANBUS connector? Usually is 20 pin.
Hi, I have a Bosion PX6 HU with DSP and I am trying to set the SWC properly on my car i use a Connects2 CTUAR01 interface (Alfa Romeo Giulietta) to convert the canbus signals to the Bosion HU. At the moment only 3 steering wheel buttons work, what is the correct setting? do I need to change the radio's canbus setting?
Just bought one of these eonon q03pro units to put in my 2006 mercedes c180 (W203), its a universal unit not car specific, to replace a failed other chinese unit(8 core 8667 chip based unit). I have tested it today but not fully fitted as waiting for facsia kit to arrive.
My last unit was car specific with dedicated wiring harness and canbus for steering controls, this one only came with a standard ISO connector and I have a dedicated mercedes wiring harness coming with the facsia kit, however having a day off I decided to try powering up with the harness from the old 8667 unit, it powered up ok but the steering controls will not work. I have been told Mercedes don't use the resistive control method, you can't program wheel controls like that via the key wires. You would need to use the high/low wires and select your Mercedes model in the advanced Canbus options

Hi, as you changed device , you must set also model for wheel controls via canbus settings in factory settings. It must work.
Sometimes controls must be set afterwards, depends on the canbus box (if it is SIMPLE SOFT, HIWORLD or RAISE canbus) that you installed. You have to shift between canbus settings of various car models in order to work. If you have online update for canbus controls update via internet.
Thank you will try that, maybe trial and error but I thought there would be a way to make it work, as it was from a previous unit set for W203 Mercedes c class. This is my 3rd android unit in the car so hopefully this one will work
Hi, I have a Podofo 7" stereo with 2gb, single din. Trying to install in a 2009 BMW 128i. I only bought it to have steering wheel controls. No steering wheel controls. Axxess tech support tells me that the ASWC-1 is not supported when using off brand Chinese head units. I have a Scosche wiring harness. I'm not able to get the Axxess unit to work. Is there a way to get rid of the Axxess adapter completely, and just program the head unit to communicate with the BMW canbus?
Thanks,
Jimmy

This kind of adapter is supossed to work with professional audio brand such as Pioneer, JVC, kenwood etc. where device only accepts analog signal.

The best and the simplest solution is to buy complete new harness with canbus adapter dedicated for android head units and your car.
Something like this will do the job:

But make sure what type of plug is in your stereo and car harness. And canbus adapter too..
I bought simillar for my bmw x5 and works fine. beside stering wheel controls it provides open-door alerts (and trunk ) and simple data such as vehicle speed, revs, milage, temperature.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THIS IS JUST WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR!!!!!!!!
Hi, use and buy HIWORLD canbus and settings for multimedia it's much more stable. If you can find any on sale.
This ones provided in links are unbranded. I don't know if they will work.
