Steering wheel audio control+Pioneer

[russiankid]

My Pioneer DEH-P4800MP has a 1/8th mini jack on the rear side for a wired remote. The instruction manual doesn't say anything about it other than it is bought separately. My question is, how could i wire the controls on the steering wheel to the radio without buying the interface. From what i recall the steering wheel controls have a single wire that goes to the head unit.

Yea but i have an SE-i steering wheel and it would be nice to be able to use those controls

well since you have the se-i wheel (and im guessing hub aswell) it should be able to be done. i belive your right on it beinge one wire, i belive the wheel is only a ground for the switch so some major re-wireing would have to be done. if i saw the wireing of the remote and the wireing of the wheel i could draw up a quick skimatic but i dont even reemmber the se-i wheel wireing anymore, goodluck

search for a SWI-X adapter... this piece will allow you to use to factory controls on an aftermarket deck.,

I know what you are talking about, but i would rather not buy that and just wire it up myself since my radio has a wired remote jack.

The SE-i wheel remote control has a resister of a differnent value for each function wired to gnd or pos. I can't remember which. It is in the Helminc manual. Your radio remote input must be able to decifer the different reisistor values and expect them to be the same command. The remote adapter for these radios will see the different resistor values or voltages if you want and based on the settings you pick, it will control that function of your radio. I don't think your remote input in your radio works the way you want to wire it without the adapter.

I'll have to check the radio.
