Hi all,

anyone have experience directly wiring the MFSW to a radio Jack input.

I’ve upgraded to a Sony MEX5300 single din.

One of the features it has is programmable steering controls. You select the function you want and then press the relevant steering wheel button and it memorises it. Hence makes me think you would not need a special module and could wire the steering wheel control wires to a 3.5mm Jack.

has anyone done this or similar? Any guidance would be appreciated.


background:
I bought the HK enabler and MFSW modules from newministuff. Sound is amazing but the steering wheel controls only work intermittently. Awaiting guidance, thought it was the head unit so swapped it for another (same model - problem persists). As said this head unit has programmable controls so perhaps the steering wheel module is redundant.


Btw the Sony MEX 5300 Perfectly matches the mini interior and lighting - has everything you need except CarPlay. Sound is great. You can customise the colours or go max with rgb - I have selected amber to match the cluster. I considered some of the single din car play units but figure I would never look down there for maps so kind of redundant. This interfaces with Siri, inc a mic, 2 BT devices can connect simultaneously. Even retains CD support.
