A CANBUS steering wheel control interface engineered specifically for the Hyundai Tucson (2017-2018) with OEM navigation, the SWHY16C retains factory steering wheel controls with a vehicle-specific plug connection, and provides reverse trigger, park brake, speed pulse, and illumination outputs with no wire cutting required.

Product Overview

The Aerpro SWHY16C is a CANBUS steering wheel control interface designed for the Hyundai Tucson from 2017-2018 fitted with OEM navigation. It includes a harness fitted with a vehicle-specific plug that connects directly into the existing factory wiring in the vehicle without cutting or modifying the factory harness. The SWHY16C is compatible with SW-type patch leads (sold separately) and supports the OEM phone button when connected to a compatible aftermarket Bluetooth head unit. Outputs include reverse trigger (purple/white wire), park brake, speed pulse, and illumination.

Custom button remapping is available and requires a USB-C cable (sold separately). Installation is simplified when the SWHY16C is paired with the optional Aerpro APP8 Headunit ISO Harness (sold separately), which connects between the aftermarket head unit and the SWHY16C interface. The aftermarket head unit must be SWC compatible and steering wheel control functions may vary from OEM functions. The SWHY16C suits Hyundai Tucson 2017-2018 vehicles with OEM navigation only.
