My installer programmed my up/down channel buttons on my steering wheel to change the manual tuning of the radio station. Not very helpful.

I want the channel buttons to switch between my stored preset channels. Is this possible on the Z-120? Switching between preset stations can only be done through the touch screen. Are we limited to controlling only the hard-wired buttons at the bottom of the Z-120 through the PAC interface?

As a followup, what functions have people chosen to program their steering wheel buttons with? Others have suggested using the steering wheel's "mode" button as the VR button, which I like.

Thanks all.

You can but you will loose the ability to skip tracks on CD, DVD, SD, USB, or iPod if you only have one set of buttons on your steering wheel to program to. If you have two sets of buttons you will be able to get both.

How do you program the buttons ?

Read the instructions.

Just read thru the hole manual.

Cant find anything on the stearing remote programing.

Which manual did you read?

AVIC-F10BT_addendum_NO

And

AVIC-F10BT_manual_NO

Read the instructions that came with the module.

Ohh had it mounted by a certified store and did not get any.

Search pioneer for parts for my car then.

No, take it back and have them program it to your liking.

I saw this issue when I had my PAC installed. So I asked the audio tech to program my "up" button as the "next track" and my "down" button on the steering wheel as the "next preset". I rarely use the back function so this works out for me.
