Tuner and Steering Wheel COntrols Oh my - 25/02/2005 20:53

You can move this if I am posting in the wrong spot. Tracking says my Empeg will be here on the first. (Does a little End Zone Style Dance) even though this is my 6th Empeg and my third tuner I have never acctually hooked up a tuner and used it (yea Yea Yea I know I am weird) The only Reason I am keeping this tuner is I remember seeing something in the Faq about the steering wheel controls only working if you have the tuner So I am keeping the tuner (in a long drawn out way here are the my questions)

1. Can the Stock Jeep steeringwheel controls work with the Empeg ? with a small amount of reporgramming My linux is Very poor so unless I can find a "Loading Hi-Jack for Dummies book I am SOL)

2. If no on Question which Steering wheel remotes work the best with the smallest amount of Poking and prodding?

3. The Sony Stalk Interface anyone selling one complete and build I don't solder much anymore.

That was this FAQ entry.

In theory, yes, with an adapter which converts the Jeep controls into Sony controls. See the FAQ entry above for examples.

As stated in the FAQ entry linked above: Kenwood KCA-RC700, Pioneer CXB3488 (SR80 in the US), Sony RM-X4S, Sony RM-X2S.

The tuner module is the Sony Stalk interface.
