[QUOTE="Lasherž, post: 8710289, member: 679555"] As Sierra Nate said, the controls are digital. Most interfaces are boxes that translate the pulses sent from the steering wheel control or SWC which you'll probably see a lot in the manual. The harness from the car will be very populated, I doubt you'll have a single requested pin that doesn't have a corresponding car harness wire. At that point you'll just need to figure out if your stereo harness has the wire needed. During the interface not all wires are carried into the new unit and that's where your potential for lost features is. The adapter that you bought is from a reputable company that's very familiar with car stereo wiring, I suspect that it'll be plug and play minus maybe just those 3 wires you were talking about earlier and they'll be covered in the instructions as to what to do with them. When you say only one wire comes out of the harness there's going to be multiple harnesses which do different things, the instructions should be pretty good on the new harnesses but understand some harnesses have copies of wires you won't need. Like for example the ANC module has a Bat+, ground, and control. If you're bypassing the ANC then it'll probably be a very simple harness. If you need more help though feel free to take a photo of each of the harnesses and I'll try and piece together why if it doesn't work as intended per the instructions if it indeed doesn't work on the first attempt.
