Steering Wheel Controls

The steering wheel controls are momentary switches connected to pins P and N of the harness. They short these pins with various levels of resistance which is decoded into the various functions. I took apart my MPV's head unit and read the resistance on the functions it has. I then tried this control with my Miata's 4H60 head and the controls all worked perfectly. So this might presumably work with all FMS double-DIN heads!

Application Resistance
Mode 1k Ohms
Vol+ 150 Ohms
Vol- 60 Ohms
Track 300 Ohms
Mute 2k Ohms
