Description
Hyundai & Kia Infolink Plus Steering Wheel Control Interface 2-Way UART, Climate Control & Vehicle Menus, Factory Amp, Camera, AUX, USB & Antenna Retained, No Factory Wiring Cut Required.
Product Overview
The Aerpro AAHY11C is an Infolink Plus steering wheel control interface for Hyundai and Kia vehicles a significant step up from the standard ASHY16C CANBUS interface listed earlier. The AAHY11C is a 2-way UART interface, allowing climate control and system menus to be controlled directly via the aftermarket head unit's touchscreen or the factory steering wheel controls a capability only available on select aftermarket radios fitted with a UART input.
Key OEM vehicle functions including climate control, parking sensors, gauges and more are supported (integration and compatibility varies between vehicle and head unit models). The AAHY11C also retains the factory amplifier (if equipped), factory reverse camera, factory AUX, USB, and antenna making it one of the most comprehensive Hyundai/Kia SWC interfaces in the Aerpro range. No cutting of the factory wiring harness is required.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the AAHY11C and the ASHY16C?
The AAHY11C is an Infolink Plus 2-way UART interface, adding climate control and vehicle menu integration via the head unit touchscreen or SWC, factory amplifier retention, speed pulse output, and vehicle menu support all absent from the standard ASHY16C CANBUS interface. The AAHY11C requires a UART-compatible aftermarket radio.
What is 2-way UART and which head units support it?
UART is a communication protocol that allows the head unit and vehicle to exchange data in both directions enabling climate control and vehicle menus to be shown and controlled on the aftermarket head unit touchscreen. Only select aftermarket radios with a UART input support this feature. Confirm your head unit has a UART input before purchasing.
Does this retain the factory amplifier?
Yes if equipped. The aftermarket head unit must have rear RCA preouts for factory amplifier retention.
Does this retain the factory reverse camera?
Yes if originally fitted. The aftermarket head unit must have an RCA reverse camera input.
What is the return policy for this product?
Return eligibility is subject to the retailer's policy. Always verify vehicle and head unit compatibility before purchasing.
