3.5MM SWC CABLE
Plug in the 3.5MM to 4-Pin SWC cable to the SWC module or use the Blue/Yellow wire for JVC and Kenwood.
For aftermarket radios that have wires for SWC connections, cut off the 3.5mm plug on the Crux SWC Cable and connect the SWC wires as follows:
Note that there are some radios that only have SWC1 and SWC2, in this case “shield” does not need to be connected.CRUX SOOGM 15 OnStar Radio

SELECTING THE AUDIO SYSTEM:

If the vehicle is equipped with an amplified audio system, the SOOGM-15 has a built-in audio level adaptor that outputs the proper audio level from the aftermarket radio to the factory amplifier. To use this feature, plug in the male 8-pin connector on the SOOGM-15 harness to the GRAY female 8-pin connector on the SOOGM-15 module. The module is also labeled “Bose” and “Non Bose” to avoid confusion. (see picture below) If the vehicle is NOT equipped with a factory amplified system, plug in the male 8-pin connector to the BLACK female 8-pin on the SOOGM-15 module.

CHIME VOLUME ADJUSTMENT:

The SOOGM-15 has a potentiometer to adjust the chime volume. It is set at half way by default. To adjust the volume, simply use a suitable screw driver and turn the potentiometer clockwise to increase the volume and counter-clockwise to decrease the volume.CRUX SOOGM 15 OnStar Radio Replacement Interface

ONSTAR VOLUME ADJUSTMENT:

To adjust the OnStar volume, turn on OnStar and adjust the volume using the Steering Wheel Control volume adjustment. Once it is set, the SOOGM-15 will memorize this level.
