Troubleshooting

Wrong functions, random volume, or odd steering-key behaviour

Quick answer

Wrong or “mixed up” buttons almost always mean the steering control map is wrong. Clear the SWC map completely, power-cycle, and learn keys again only in the supplier’s documented order.

Problem

  • Steering buttons trigger the wrong function or act randomly.

Symptoms

  • Volume up swaps to track skip.
  • Single press registers as double.
  • Behavior changes with engine running vs off.

Cause

  • Double learning or overlapping profiles.
  • Resistor ladder tolerance out of spec when cold.
  • CAN translator on wrong vehicle firmware.

Fix Step-by-step

  1. Clear SWC map completely; power-cycle; learn keys in supplier order only.
  2. Verify no second device (old dongle) still paired to the same input.
  3. Update module firmware if the vendor provides a changelog matching your chassis.
