Thank you!!! I bout one of those stereos and no instructions came for that remote. It also came with another hand held remote I may use instead. But much appreciated for the installation instructions.
Anyone notice or have the issue that the song skip buttons don't work during Android auto? It works for me on Bluetooth and the other controller works on Android auto. But the steering wheel controller doesn't skip or playback songs during Android auto. Anyone know why or figure this out?
Could not get it to work on a right hand drive car The remotes curvature means you have to mount it on the R/H side of the steering wheel which blanks the led reaching the radio ir input
Hello, How did you hook up the steering wheel wire from the radio and to which wire you connected it too. From head unit to where, because I cannot find wire for the steering wheel control I have 2003 Toyota camry and I don't have factory steering wheel control. Can you please help me
This remote uses IR. The radio I am using have a wire to connect to a steering wheel control but I don't have a factory control so I am using this IR remote.
Bought mine yesterday. Button functions are not in sync with my head unit. Volume up goes to fm radio and volume down is number 3 etc... How to reprogram it?
please tell me how to setting first time this remote control..i have not working...the remote same and the headunit use android 7012B..thank for your attention
@@Rickmakes They don't pair as such. IR remotes(exactly the same with traditional IR tv etc remotes) use a particular way of coding the signal, different brands use different codes. There is no pairing, if the head unit 'understands' the IR signal it receives it works, otherwise it does nothing. These remotes have no way to change the codes, so they won't work with most head units. This is why 'universal' remotes come with a list of setting codes, so the remote can be set to match the device. Likewise 'learning' codes record the IR signal from an original remote.
You almost certainly can't, the sellers of these remotes are just dishonest &/or clueless. They most likely only work with generic Chinese headunits such as shown in the video.
Change the battery and open your camera on your phone and hold the purple infrared in front of camera and press buttons while looking through your phone camera to make sure the purple IR is blinking. This will ensure that your remote is functional. No programming necessary.
@@DoubleMonoLR have you ever bought a RCA television where the remote worked on your zenith television in the other bedroom? Absolutely not! Because that's not how any of this works.
You can't, they're seemingly useless for anything other than Chinese head units like the one in the video. Unfortunately sellers constantly list these as 'universal' and 'learning', they're neither.
Hi Rick, I could not find the battery type for the remote control you have to insert. Do you have information about this? Greetings from Karlsruhe , Germany
@@andrewfilippone2130 I bought this Control but don't work in my device. I tried copy from my original remote control but I don't found how I can do this. Do you know? My device is a Alpine.
@@roque_vinicius I think it only works with the cheap China radio. I fixed mine it is working good now. Open your camera on phone and look at the IR sensor on remote through camera lens. You will see the IR light flashing
I don't remember off the top of my head. It is covered in snow right now so I can't check. I would try it both ways. You can press a button while looking at it with a phone camera. You will see a little light flicker when it is right.
Are you using a cable? Is it the charge cable that came with the phone? The cable included with your phone has more wires than the cheap ones. This allows for data transfer as well as charge.
If the stereo does something when you press a button.. These remotes don't work with most headunits though, seemingly only no-name Chinese ones. You can test if it's actually sending a signal/has a good battery by pointing at your phone camera, which will show the remotes IR light blinking (the camera is sensitive to IR light, our eyes aren't)
Mine just worked after I removed a piece of plastic to allow the battery to make contact. It uses infrared so it needs to be line of sight to the radio.
Can someone please just tell me what kind of batteries I need for my steering wheel remote! I can’t figure it out to save my life!

Hi there, can this remote skip songs when you’re connected via Bluetooth? Thank you
What kind of battery are you using in that unit , I bought one and it doesn’t say anything about what battery to use !! Thanks
Thanks for the video.
Where to get that product. How to connect it with LCD. Ps: my car dvd don’t have remote
Thank you

COULD YOU TELL ME THE BATTERY MODEL AND/ OR QUANITY?
Hello, does this remote control have an on / off button or does it go into standby after a short time?
It uses infrared so it only consumes power when you are pressing a button.
How u sinkron the remote with tape???
Thanks for the vid. How's the radio and control holding up so far? Do you recommend it?

You can't, you're lucky it does anything at all. These have fixed IR codes, different devices use different codes.
Thanks man just got the f16 promate fm transmitter bluetooth you helped me for steering wheel installing
please tell me how to setting first time this remote control..i have not working...the remote same and the headunit use android 7012B..thank for your attention
I'm not sure how to pair it. It was already paired when I got it.
It is infrared
Same with my mobile Android not connect to remote control, can you teach me, tkhs
The seller claims this is a blutooth remote,wich it is NOT! I ordered one,and it will not work with Android..

Mine didnt come with a battery, im trying to find out which battery it takes.
Nm i found the info in the comments
isnt the a SWC learning mode on your radio....there usually is.
But how to make it on and connect to the radio
Extremely helpful
Glad it helped!
Did you ever figure out how to program it? I bought one of these remotes but can't figure out how to program it, there was no manual.
Same here I'm having trouble finding the right battery they don't tell us much about it.

Does any wire from the wiring harness need to be hooked up to work
Not for this. The IR receiver is in the head unit.
Does not work with alpine of kenwood stereos
Hi i purchased the same one but it doesnt work how do u adjust it my radio has IR receiver so should work
Not sure. Mine came with the radio.

What is the battery for the remote? What battery did you use?
CR2025 coin cell
Is it still working after 9 months? How often do you change the battery? Great video btw!
Still working. I haven't had to change the battery yet. It should last quite a while because it only uses power when you press the buttons.
Ive got that same screw driver. Its the best tool I have ever used. When they bury me it will be with me.
Which battery do you need for the remote control?
CR2025
Cr2032 or cr2025
Does it work on andriod attaching IR reciever on usb?
I'm not sure. I've only used it with the radio it came with.
i have pioneer mvh-g210bt ( 2 din ) , do you beilieve it works ?
This came with my radio. I'm not sure if it works with other radios.
No
Hi, what size batteries does it take? Thanks!
Sorry for the delay. I hadn't been out to the car in a while. It takes a CR2025 coin cell.
Thanks a bunch for the info. I really do appreciate it.
@@Rickmakes thanks
Is there any way to connect the remote with my phone not with the touchscreen radio?
No, they're basic infrared remotes with fixed codes.
What kind of battery does the steering wheel remote use?
Got it thanks
@@jp-tb4ho what kind?
Hi Rick, I could not find the battery type for the remote control you have to insert. Do you have information about this? Greetings from Karlsruhe , Germany
I was wondering about the battery size also. I got no instructions.
CR 2025
Thank you Amber.
@@Bo-hb3eo no problem, I bought a CR 2032 and it also works, just a fyi👍🏾
Thank you I can't believe I didn't think of unscrewing the screws, maybe i have a few loose ones myself lol !
I bought two of these remotes but they did not come with batteries could you please tell me what size batteries they take.
It takes a 2025.
How did you link the remote with the unit? Mine, even though it came with the unit doesn't do a thing.
It just automatically worked. You do have to pull the plastic tab out to enable the battery to work. You might also try replacing the battery.
You have to be close to the radio, pretty much useless tbh mine only works when it's about 8" away

Can this radio work in a 2006 toyota coralla altis?
I'm not familiar with that vehicle. This radio should work in cars that have a double DIN radio opening.
"MOD" = mode. "BND" = band (AM/FM)
MODE = Source, in this case.
Come si accende il telecomando? Si illumina la parte in plastica in viola?
It activates every time you press a button.
@@Rickmakes quale tasto devo schiacciare per accenderlo?
@@enricos4060 hold in front of phone camera and press buttons to see blinking light. It can not be seen with naked eye.
Where did you get this remote from i need this
It came with the radio.
ebay
who did you programmer with dvd player?
This doesn't have a DVD player. The remote worked right out of the box.
This steering wheel remote is it sold separately and will it operate other radio brands?
I'm not sure about that. I don't know if there is a standard for car stereo remotes.
how to do the remote control on ??
I just removed the piece of plastic in the back that was keeping the battery from making contact. Once I did that, the remote worked.
how to insert program to ir remote?
I didn't have to program this. It just worked. Make sure you pull the plastic tab out of the back of the remote to "activate" the battery.
Will this work for a kenwood stereo?
I unfortunately don't have one to test it with.
What way does the battery go in?
I don't remember off the top of my head. It is covered in snow right now so I can't check. I would try it both ways. You can press a button while looking at it with a phone camera. You will see a little light flicker when it is right.
Can anyone help me figure out why phone link is not working?
Are you using a cable? Is it the charge cable that came with the phone? The cable included with your phone has more wires than the cheap ones. This allows for data transfer as well as charge.
MOD is probably, MODE. BND, would most likely be BAND when choosing to listen to am/fm radio.
After 4 years is it still working?.
Yep. Still working.
Can you tell me what battery is inside?
CR2025
Is it work my pioneer mvh sterio
Not sure. It came with my stereo.
I just put a steering wheel cover to prevent hitting that elastic band and shifting the remote around.
If I hadn't had the steering wheel re-wrapped, I probably would have double stick taped it. :)
how to know if the remote is working?
If the stereo does something when you press a button.. These remotes don't work with most headunits though, seemingly only no-name Chinese ones.
You can test if it's actually sending a signal/has a good battery by pointing at your phone camera, which will show the remotes IR light blinking (the camera is sensitive to IR light, our eyes aren't)

@@Rickmakes the only button that does anything on mine is the green button which changes the eq choice to user jazz etc
How to remote paring
Mine just worked. I didn't need to pair it.
I'd this problem. I bought this universal remote control but don't works in my device. My device is a Alpine with IR but don't works.
You can't. If it doesn't work, that's the end of it. There's no way to change the IR codes on these remotes.
where is the battery
There is an opening on the back.
Please help me
Wheres the battery
There is a compartment that slides open on the back to access it.
What battery does it require & how / where did you wire the ‘control wire’ in the 8 wire connector (my wire is orange/black)?
No volumn
that's not a control on the steering wheel, it's a remote control with steering wheel support
That's a remote lol I thought it was a vibrator for the nads
I guess I'm not very familiar with those. No vibrations here. Ha!
How do I connect this thing
Mine just worked after I removed a piece of plastic to allow the battery to make contact. It uses infrared so it needs to be line of sight to the radio.
Mine wont connect
