To connect the Scosche FD5000SW Steering Wheel Control (SWC) to a BOSS head unit:

1. Refer to the chart on page 9 of the manual to identify the correct wire loop to cut and the proper SWC wire connections for BOSS.
2. Connect the 3.5mm male jack to the SWC input on the back of the BOSS stereo, if it has a 3.5mm SWC input.
3. If the BOSS stereo does not have a 3.5mm jack, connect the Brown (KEY1), Gray (KEY2), or Black (GND) wire to the stereo’s SWC input wire as specified in the chart.
4. Connect the 14-pin male connector to the interface module.

If BOSS is not listed on the chart, contact technical support for instructions.

    1. The Red +12V switched accessory wire coming from the FD5000SW interface is rated at 10 amps for use with a single Aftermarket stereo. Connecting additional accessories to this +12V power source can cause damage to the FD5000SW module. 2. There are wires connected ONLY between the FD5000SW interface plug and the vehicle connectors (under the insulating tape). Do not make any connections or cuts to these wires. 3. If your stereo does not contain an “Orange” illumination wire, then the orange wire will not be used.
