Frequently Asked Questions
What additional parts do I need to complete the installation?
A secondary harness and patch lead specific to your aftermarket headunit are still required unless a universal patch lead is supplied with your chosen headunit. Aerpro recommends using the appropriate APP9 kit for headunit-specific connections, or APP8 harness adapter if a universal patch lead is supplied in this kit, which connects directly from the aftermarket headunit into the steering wheel control interface harness.
Will this kit retain my factory reversing camera?
Yes, the FP9236K steering wheel control interface retains factory camera systems where originally equipped in your vehicle, maintaining reversing camera functionality when upgrading to an aftermarket headunit with camera input capability, preserving this important safety feature throughout the installation process.
Why might I need to switch rear speakers to front?
Some Chrysler, Jeep, and Dodge models operate on rear speaker outputs only from the factory. When installing aftermarket headunits with Bluetooth audio, optimal sound quality requires front speaker output. This kit includes an ISO adapter specifically for switching rear speaker outputs to front channels, ensuring proper Bluetooth audio performance in affected vehicle models.
Does this kit work with CAN-BUS equipped vehicles?
Yes, the FP9236K features CAN-BUS integration compatible steering wheel control interface that requires no additional modules for CAN-BUS equipped vehicles, providing seamless integration with vehicle communication networks while retaining steering wheel controls, factory amplified systems, and essential output feeds without compatibility issues or error messages.
What does "dashboard may require some modification" mean?
Some vehicle variants within the compatible model range may have dashboard structures that require minor trimming or modification to accommodate double DIN aftermarket headunits due to factory single DIN or integrated system configurations. The modification ensures proper depth clearance and mounting bracket fitment for flush double DIN installation while maintaining factory appearance with the supplied black facia.
