CS-TJ20
Radio Replacement with Steering Wheel Control Retention
for LEXUS & TOYOTA Vehicles with JBL Systems

Arc-Crux Module 3v-5v SWC switch

Some Boss radios volume will max out when turning the vehicle off if the micro-switch is set to 5v.
*This module has different board layouts for different harnesses. Same micro-switch though.

IMPORTANT INSTALLATION NOTES:

1. In some Lexus/Toyota vehicles 2006 and older, the mute circuit is located in the same pin location as the amplifier turn-on on the OEM harness. If no audio is heard after the installation is complete, disconnect the BLUE/WHITE wire on the CS-TJ20 T-Harness from the aftermarket radio AMP Turn-on wire. Insulate with tape to avoid short circuits.
2. Before connecting the 3.5mm SWC Cable, thoroughly wipe it clean with the alcohol cleansing pad provided. This will ensure solid contact with the aftermarket radio SWC circuit.
3. To retain the factory AUXILIARY INPUT option in the vehicle, the aftermarket radio must have an “Auxiliary Audio Input” feature. Please check your aftermarket radio manual for details.

INSTALLATION DIAGRAM:

NOTE: Aftermarket radio rear speaker output leads are not used on both harnesses. Insulate with tape.

CS-TJ20 OEM Camera Retention Harness
The CS-TJ20 includes a camera harness with a 12V to 6V voltage converter to retain the OEM camera (if equipped). Some older models use a a16-Pin OEM camera connector. In this case, use the supplied 16 to 24-Pin Camera Adapter.

SETTING THE AFTERMARKET RADIO BRAND

This step is done on the CS-TJ20 SWC Module. With the key in the off position, set the DIP switches to the corresponding radio listed below.

NOTE: For Auto, Blaupunkt, Dual, Farenheit, Power Acoustik, Soundstream, and most off-brand radios, check the aftermarket radio’s manual to see if the SWC buttons need to be programmed.

4-PIN SWC CABLE

Use the proper 3.5MM to 4-Pin SWC cable for the aftermarket radio you are using.
OPTION A is used for ALPINE, CLARION, JVC, and KENWOOD units (Blue/Yellow wire is attached) OPTION B is used for BLAUPUNKT, BOSS, DUAL, FAHRENHEIT, JENSEN, POWER ACOUSTIK, PIONEER, SONY, SOUNDSTREAM, and Most Off-Brand Radios.
NOTE: Cap or insulate the 3.5mm plug or Blue/Yellow wire if not being used.
For aftermarket radios that have wires for SWC connections, cut off the 3.5mm plug on the Crux SWC Cable (option B) 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.

GAIN ADJUSTMENTS:

Use the gain adjustment to level match the aftermarket radio audio output with the OE amplifier input.
