Description:

This is a set of harnesses that connects to the 20-pin and 16-pin connectors on your vehicle's factory wiring harness and provides wire connections for an aftermarket headunit. It will provide the necessary electrical connections to install an aftermarket headunit into most newer non-navigation Subaru vehicles without splicing wires or cutting the factory harness. This harness does not fit 2016 vehicles and will not fit vehicles with OEM navigation. Please contact us for information regarding these installations.

Depending on your model of vehicle, you may not have the VSS or Reverse signals in your vehicle's headunit wiring harness(Reverse is not needed if you do not intend to connect a backup camera connected to the navigation unit).

What functionality is retained?

-Speaker/OEM Amplifier connections
-Auxiliary Audio connections (USB is a separate harness...See below)
-Steering Wheel Switches (Harness includes connector for AXXESS ASWC-1)
-Vehicle speed signal (VSS)

**VSS, Reverse(Not needed unless the backup camera will be connected to the navigation unit), and E-brake signals will be provided via this harness. In some cases, these signals are not available on your vehicle's radio wiring harness. If this is the case, these connections should not be wired**

OEM Backup Camera retention

Retaining the backup camera requires a special harness depending on your OEM configuration.

OEM Backup camera that displays in the MFD (Multi-Function Display)

If your OEM camera displays on the multi-function display, it will work as it currently does with no modification. If you intend to relocate the camera feed to an aftermarket headunit, you will need our Backup Camera Relocation harness. This harness is available here.

OEM Backup camera that displays on the non-nav headunit

THIS HARNESS WILL ONLY FIT NON-NAV VEHICLES where the backup camera displays on the OEM headunit. If you are unsure of the compatibility with your vehicle, please ask. This harness will fit units like the one shown here.

Cost: $41
Lead Time: 1 week

"Check Audio System" notice on the MFD

Your new headunit can't communicate with the MFD. The MFD may display a "Check Audio System" notice when the transplant harness is installed because this communication link is no longer available. You can get rid of this message by pulling the negative battery terminal and waiting 10 or 15 minutes. Upon reconnection, the MFD should be reset and the message should not display.
