Axxess Steering Wheel Issue

Hi all,

I installed a DD this last weekend with the axxess steering wheel interface. I wired the interface exactly how to, (following Wrathernaut's instructions & Axxess PDF Guide). The red wire from the interface is going to the 12volt accessory wire on my HU harness. Then the gray/red wire from the interface is going to the #4 pin from car harness (red wire) and the white/green wire from the interface to the #11 pin (green wire). Then the #13 pin (yellow wire) is grounded.

The LED light flashes rapidly at the beginning, i hold the volume up button then it turns off and starts short flashes (telling me that nothing is connected?)...what color wires from the interface go to the car harness?

Is there something that I have wired wrong?

Thanks for your time concerning this issue...

Was your car equipped with factory bluetooth? Are your grounds good? Both on the Axxess and on the 16 pin wire harness.

Yes, I have the Bose system (2003 Coupe) but did not want to mess with ripping out the speakers/amp. I hooked up the PAC ROEM harness and the HU sounds great. I will double check the grounds, am I using the correct color wires from the axxess?
