Using a Generic Aliexpress Device with an Arduino-SWC to Connect to a Pioneer Radio #4

Closed libr3 closed 1 week ago

Hello,

Would it be possible to use a generic device from Aliexpress like this one https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256804517901801.html and connect it via arduino-swc to a Pioneer radio?

I've considered this question because I'm not sure if it's even possible to do such a thing with an ASWC-1, as these are oriented towards the use of an OEM SWC.

Since my vehicle doesn't have its own SWC, I would like to know if by adding a device like the one mentioned earlier and using this project, I could achieve what you have achieved.

No reason why not, it looks to just be using voltage for the buttons. Would need to bench test it to get the output from the receiver. The ASWC-1 is an interface for OEM controls, what you have linked to is a remote unit with a receiver that then connects into the factory wiring or head unit wiring.

My code is not tied to OEM controls, it is just all I had worked with. Give it a go!
