Dear community,
I'm kind of lost since I get no support from Erisin about this (no response)
I have a BMW E46 from 2002 and the Erisin head unit.
MCU version is stock px5 MTCE (px5-userdebug 8.0.0. OPR5.170623.007 eng.hct.20180417.101726 test-keys)
I liked the idea of controlling the head unit volume by steering wheel.
Therefore I wired and installed the steering wheel buttons to my car.
The ACC works fine and in general I can control the head unit by the buttons.
Change Volume, Skip a song and so on...
Buuuut very often the head unit goes crazy or the control gets lost over the steering wheel buttons. (I am not able to drive over 30 minutes without having this error)
It seems like the head unit receives some ghost commands and volume goes up to max or I have random song skips. Sometimes it simply doesn't react on buttons.
Of couse this is not usable at all, therefore I disconnected the whole buttons.
For example you see a ghost volume up at 0:27

Or here there is no reaction on volume up (please excuse my loud breathing)

Key study menu doesn't work at all:

Here is magic volume up (you will also see a handsome gangster guy)

I have no clue how to debug or what I can do.
Any hints from the experts?

You should go Settings/Steering wheel keys to program the SWC, but not go to panel keys study.
I think the key menu doesnt matter. Actually the Buttons work as expected. But it gets out of control very often (random skips, volume up and so on). I also saw a key menu where I See the logs of key press. The head unit seem to actually receive the ghost key strokes repeatedly.
Have you tried entering at the factory menu and changing the car model at canbus menu?
You have a full menu for the keys where to change configurations.

I am looking for a steering wheel mountable, Bluetooth controller for an Android device. Currently, I am use a device called Bluclik. It works great for audio control. I can control volume and change tracks in all audio apps. However, I am trying to get full navigation control. I'd like at the very least, to have buttons for up, down, left right, enter/select and volume. If something also had back, home, and overview buttons it would be perfect.
I have been searching for a few hours now and have failed miserably. So this means either what I want doesn't exist or I have failed to internet good enough. Any help will be appreciated, thanks.
Guys i have a MTCD Malaysk 8.0 (i think HA alhough i've crossflashed a few times so forgot exactly) and i have a raise canbus for my golf, how can i make my golf steering wheel buttons work in headunit, spotify etc, they work in the stock BT app, the keycodes according to MTCD tools is 300/299 but even when settings them to media_next/media_prev it doesn't work.
mtcd tools or rk3188 app from the play store.
I'm having the same problem, I can turn the volume up and down. My unit has android auto, it's really annoying I can't skip tracks with my steering wheel controls. I'm not sure what am I supposed to do with the apps someone commented above. Were you able to fix this?
Me too. I'm a premium member of Spotify but end up using my lame stock music because of this problem.
My car is a 2017 WRX STI with Harman kardon system. I know the dasaita is not designed to work with it but I've put my own amp, wired new speakers and made it work. I was having issue with turning on my amp and backup camera when I put my car in reverse. However I was able to map all my steering wheel buttons correctly. Then after that, I was able to figure out how to turn on my amp by moving one of the wiring pins in the harness and connect directly to my remote turn on lead to the amp. Also I was able to provide power to the backup cam when I put my car in reverse and now it works. My issue now is that my directional buttons on the steering wheel doesn't work anymore. Other buttons work like the mute button. Anyone have a wiring harness diagram for the steering wheel buttons from dasaita? I had an Android head unit before and that one I had no issue with it recognizing the steering wheel button commands.
With "directional buttons" you mean up/down (prev/next) right?
So, the Android units do not have too many choices. You either use the CanBus provided by Dasaita (or several 3rd party) for your vehicle "family" (usually same CanBus shared among different car models and brands) and you live with whatever is supported (usually only Vol +/-, Mute, Prev/Next), or you connect your steering wheel buttons to the "Key-1" and "Key-2" cables on the unit and you configure/program the unit to execute an action when buttons are pressed.
For using Key-1 and Key-2 cables:
1) You need to verify that your steering wheel buttons are restive (pressing a button changes the resistance seen by the unit)
2) You need the diagram of your steering wheel as different sections are connected to different units on the car and so use different cables. As an example, on my Mazda:
- Perv/Next, Vol +/-, Mute are one resistance bridge that goes to the stereo (one cable, as the "-" is always chassis)
- Talk, Pick-up, Hang-down is another cable that goes to the Bluetooth unit (again one cable, and the bluetooth unit then connects to the Aux of the stereo)
- Up/Down/Left/Right and Enter (the other side of the steering wheel) goes to the Computer Display (have not played with this one, no idea if it is one cable or more)
In my case I left the Vol/Mute/Prev-Next alone as it was working via the CanBus, but I cut the cable going from the steering wheel to the Bluetooth Unit and connected it to Key2 in a PX5 MTC-D Dasaita unit and configured those keys to handle phone calls + Google Assistant. I guess I still have Key-1 if one day I want to completely kill the factory "computer display" that any way only shows basic statistics.
Hope this helps. I can share the Mazda Steering Wheel circuit so you can see what you should be looking for (most probably Subaru will use other color code for the cabling)
Key 1 Key 2
I bought some external buttons that I want to connect Android car stereo dasaita can you indicate the cables key 1 key 2 where to connect?
Hello, how can I configure my Steering Wheel Control. The App doesnt recognize any button.
I believe the SWC Line is connected to the Can Bus, Key 1 and 2 is empty at my HU.
The Buttons on Steeringwheel works, like prev next vol up down. I also tried to change the mapping in factory settings with the Front Button mapping settings, doestn work also.
It is a Opel Insignia 2014
Hello all
I have searched a lot and couldn't find any relevant information anywhere.
What I wanted was to be able to use the clock and trip computer in my car
(a 2008 Mazda CX7 with Bose audio). When the stock head unit is replaced
you lose the Info and Clock keys so you cannot adjust the time or change
between the various trip computer info.
So by playing around I discovered that you still can perform these actions
by using the steering wheel controls. In specific, if you press the MODE button
for 2-3 sec you enter the settings mode. There by pressing the UP arrow
you emulate the INFO key and by pressing the DOWN arrow you emulate
the CLOCK key. With the above information you can use the clock/trip
computer as before
The above might have application on other Mazda vehicles too that
use the canbus adapter to keep the steering wheel controls. Wouldn't
hurt to try anyway!
Now if only I could find a solution for the fader/balance problem of
the rear speakers (by utilizing the canbus adapter provided) I would be happy!
I made a small video showing the above for anyone that is interested.
