XSVI-6502-NAV

The Axxess XSVI-6502-NAV is a wiring interface for 2004-2017 Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Mitsubishi vehicles that send data control signals instead of conventional power signals. In those vehicles there is no switched accessory wire for an aftermarket radio to tap. The XSVI-6502-NAV reads the vehicle data bus and supplies a 12-volt, 10-amp accessory output, so the new head unit turns on and off with the ignition the way the factory radio did.

It also retains R.A.P. (Retained Accessory Power), so vehicles equipped with that feature keep behaving the way the owner expects after the key is turned off. For navigation-capable receivers, the interface supplies Parking Brake, Reverse, Mute, and Speed Sense outputs, which the radio uses for turn-by-turn guidance, automatic backup camera switching, and accurate position tracking when GPS signal drops in tunnels or parking garages.

A high level speaker input lets the interface work with the factory speaker wiring, making it a fit for non-amplified systems or for installs that replace a factory amplified system. An ASWC-1 harness is included for steering wheel control retention (the ASWC-1 module itself is sold separately). The interface is USB updatable, so firmware can be refreshed for added vehicle coverage without replacing the hardware.

Applications include the Chrysler 300/300C, Aspen, and PT Cruiser; Dodge Caliber, Charger, Dakota, Durango, Magnum, and Ram Pickup 1500/2500/3500; Jeep Commander, Compass, Grand Cherokee, and Patriot; and the Mitsubishi Raider.
