Honestly, it took longer to write it up

Here is my writeup on Honda steering wheel controls directly driving AVIC deck without any after market adaptor: www.757labs.com/projects/Honda-Pioneer- ... lAudio.pdf (It's also available on the 757 labs page) Enjoy!

Okay, this is a bit odd. I know the VSS wire is blue with a white stripe. I searched and found that it appears on a connector on the ECM / ECU that is grey. There is a blue w/ white stripe lead in the driver side fusebox on the side... but that doesn't seem to carry any sort of PWM signal (My meter has a frequency counter function on it). But... I can't find the ECM. On the passenger side floor, under trim on the right side (near the passenger door) there is an electronic module but it doesn't match the ECM pictures I see on feeBay.

I've got rear displays as well and am wondering how it would work.
