Boss 302 steering wheel

I have an extra connector for the cruise if you are interested in buying one!

Which connector? The harness from the factory steering wheel?

WPT something. You solder it to the boss or Shelby wheel and it plugs into 05-09 cars for cruise and lighting.

Are you sure about that one? My cruise\lighting went through the main connector. the WPT440 was for the audio controls.

Actually just saw this earlier. I think you need some type of module to get the radio controls to work.

Evidently a interface can be built to work on aftermarket HU.

Anyone have the music controls working for a Shaker 500? I have the two connectors but I have no idea wtf I'm doing.

Don't think anyone has been able to make it work. I have the 2012 GT500 wheel and love the shit out of it. My cruise and everything works except the stereo controls. I still have the shaker 1000 and same problem as the shaker 500

That is correct, I have it working on my buddy's car. We used the PAC audio SWC adapter into an aftermarket HU. Just followed the directions for the 2010+ Mustangs and it all worked fine.

Crap. So there's no way to make the wheel controls to work with the stock shaker units?

That seems to be the consensus. However, I would investigate the steering wheel control harness from another ford vehicle like the F150 or the Edge. They also had our style shaker head units but also had swc.

If the shaker head unit can accept SWC inputs u pass those through with the WPT440, cuz there's supposidly 2 pins on the shaker that are used for SWC, but you would need to add them to the stock connector. On page 1 second post that picture its pin 18-19

I just swapped the 2010 gt500 wheel in my 07. The cruise works perfect, but cannot get the Pac harness to program. I am running a pioneer that accepts wheel remotes. All the directions and nothing. Gonna call Pac on Monday. These are for the audio controls.

make sure you follow the directions for the 2010+ mustangs, i believe you need to do something with the purple wire on the pac adapter. Because I ran into the same situation, tried just following the 2010+ directions and it all worked. Make sure you have the proper resistor used too.

If you used the PAC SWI-PS you need it to look like this



and use the 100 ohm resistor with that. Then connect one of the SWC wires to the white wire, and the other to a nice ground. That's all we did.

I am using the directions right from Pac. I have it set for version 9 and followed there directions.

When you say connect one wire from the swc to the white, and the other to ground, what is the other wire? I used the purple from the swc to the white on the Pac to one side of the resistor and the on the purple.

Now also. The brown stays looped? In the other writeup in this thread, he had the brown loop cut.

Thanks.

ok, so you have 2 wires coming from the clockspring for the SWC, you connect one of those to the white wire on the PAC adapter, and the other to a good ground. Brown loop stays closed. Purple loop cut and a 100ohm resistor is wired from the inside purple wire and spliced into the white wire. Red goes to a 12v source and black goes to ground. Should be programmed to version #9 like you said then you can start programming the buttons for their functions.

This is what I did and I have it working on my friend's car.

I used these instructions from PAC Audio

http://www.pac-audio.com/SWI/SWIApp...oduct=SWI-PS&swiRadioManu=Pioneer&swiOptions=

Ok. The 2 wires that are left over are a purple and yellow. I am using the purple so I ground the remaining wire in the wheel?

Thanks. Will check it out tomorrow.

Those are the same directions I used. I did not see anywhere that state's to ground anything besides the pac itself. Am I missing something.

Thanks.

Right from those directions on PAC's website

Connect the INTERFACE's White wire to Pin 18 (Gray/Yellow) of the vehicle connector. Connect Pin 19 (Brown/Green) to chassis ground. Cut the Purple loop then connect a 100 ohm resistor to the second Purple wire, cap off the first (outside edge) Purple wire. Connect other end of resistor to the White wire.

Pin 18 and 19 refer's to the car's SWC wires, aka the 2 wires you have connected to the WPT440 connectors(green and purple wires from the steering wheel itself)

The green wire in the steering wheel is under the same pin as the torx screw on the wheel. That is grounded. So you are saying I need to tie that into the wpt on another wire and ground that? Makes no sense, a ground in the wheel is the same as a ground elsewhere.

My wpt has only one wire connected on either side. Purple on the wheel and the the same pin on the clock spring going to the pac.

Thank you for your help.

I cut the brown loop and taped em up separately connected to nothing, per settings, I was doing version three though so guess I'll try nine

Double check your resistor wiring. I originally couldn't get the PAC to program either but I rewired the resistor and ran the green wire from the steering wheel controls directly to the ground. Works like a charm.

Hi I'm trying to do this in 2020 has anyone done this lately with the new SWI-CP2 PAC ? The newer PAC you program basic functions on the spot with DIP switches, so I can set it for a 2010 mustang just by flipping DIP switches up or down thats not my problem. Where I run into trouble is the wiring I need to known where the four wires that are left in the new harness go I have Blue, Yellow, Green and Purple. I'm known the green wire gets grounded in the clock spring and I'm pretty sure the Purple gets spliced into the WPT and goes into the clock spring. Here's where I get lost what about the yellow and blue wires these are for the phone and voice. Do these needs resistors also where do they run to or what wires do they get matched up with ?

Now to the other WPT under the wheel I'm pretty sure it is the pass through for the purple wire coming from the center of the clock spring do I use the Purple wire coming from the PAC ?

Next what do I do with all these other wires on the PAC ? I known the red goes to power and the black goes to ground but theres also a Yellow wire that I known has to go to constant power. The others I have no idea what to do with as the PAC instructions tell me to wire this as if I'm actually putting it in a 2010 mustang. The PAC insturctions think my car has a SYNC unit when I don't also the wire colors are differnet on the 2010 then they are on my 2007. So any help anyone can give would be great as I'm lost here......I hate wiring UGH !!!!!

Completed the installation yesterday with a 2010 steering wheel on my 2007 GT and was able to get all of the audio and phone functions working (as well as the cruise controls). I used a PAC SWI-RC-1 controller and a Pioneer receiver. In the end, the install was pretty straightforward. I needed to use 2 of the wires through the WPT-1242/clockspring, one wire for audio and one for phone controls). In addition to grounding the green wire (for audio) I also need to ground the blue wire for the phone functions. I did not use any external resistors in the installation.

I followed the instructions for cruise control by splicing the main connector from my 2007 Mustang onto the 2010 wheel harness. There is a lot of information on how to do this on various sites.
New Harness /// Old Plug
Gray /// White
Brown /// Blue
Black /// Green (ground)
Red /// Red (power)

I had a little trouble distinguishing gray from brown on the 2010 harness. I wonder if this is the cause of some cruise control problems...

On the SWI-RC-1, I used the following connections:
SWI-RC-1 wire color /// Mustang wire

Black (all of the black wires) /// Black (ground)
Yellow /// Battery + (constant power)
Red /// Accessory Wire from Pioneer
White (Analog 1) /// Purple wire on steering wheel (via WPT-1242 and clock spring) - audio
White w/Black (Analog 2) /// Yellow wire on steering wheel (via WPT-1242 and clock spring) - phone

I needed help from PAC to troubleshoot the programming. Instead of using the dip switch settings for a 2010 Mustang, I needed to set all 8 switches to the "up" position. I then followed the PAC web site instructions for programming the SWI-RC-1, which worked perfectly.

Note to Monkeyporn: I don't know exactly how the CP2 behaves, but it looks like the same wiring and programming might work for you too... hope it helps.
