Can this get a sticky please?

I finally got my Axxess ASWC module to work on my 2009 Base / Sport 6sp. All steering wheel buttons operate my head unit. With Auto-Programming I only getting the vol+ and vol- working, and nothing with the other buttons. The problem wasnt with the pioneer, but with the Axxess's inability to grab control of all the steering wheel wires/buttons. With some TLC and carful monitoring, I found on my car that auto-programming (volume + button) as instructed did not allow the Axxess to find one vehicle wires connected. What happens here is one of the two steering wheel wires is for the Volume controls, and the other wire is for seek and source buttons. I noticed this through monitoring the LED flashes after programming.

To get past this and get the Axxess fully working with my 370z, I had to manually assign each button; one at a time. I did not have to use resistors or anything, just carefull reading of about 20 steps.

First, you must wire the Axxess ASWC per instructions for Nissan 370z. Here are the 370z's instructions:

Second, re-program all the wheel buttong manually following instructions starting on Page 8 where it says "*If the ASWC has been in a vehicle before"
through Page 10 of this pdf:

*Note - You need access to the unit's reset button to manually program.
