I can state it’s due to being compatible with so many vehicles and head units. On 2012 Ram is a five wire hook up really simple once it hit my brain.
mine started malfunctioning after about 5 months. when pressing the volume down or up it will occasionally change to the next song. i disassembled and removed the wire tap used to connect this to the wire on the factory harness for the steering wheel controls and directly spliced it together for better connection and no more issues yet...... Issues reappeared next day and after a month of coping and ignoring the issue I revisited it. I researched how to open the steering wheel and went to the scrap yard and found some button modules in good shape and replaced my control buttons on my 03 expedition which is easy if your brave enough to handle the air bag as it must be detached, be very careful of the air bag. Disconnect battery and let vehicle sit for 30min to deenergise the computer modules prior to touching anything that has anything to do with the airbag systems. After replacing the buttons all is well for 3days and ticking. If your having issues I'd still start with making sure your wire job is good then suspect the button modules on you vehicle.
3 days was all i got out of the fix, buttons have been acting up constantly. this thing is becoming more work than its worth. I contacted support for help before the warranty expires and am waiting on a reply. all wires soldered for best conductivity, has its own ground (doesn't share same ground as headunit). firmware up to date on ASWC-1 and headunit. vehicle doesn't exhibit any other issues that would lead me to believe it is a factory wiring issue. all other buttons on steering wheel for cruise and AC work perfectly with absolutely no issues so im sure its my ASWC-1 malfunctioning. it started acting up in late spring so i wonder if it couldn't handle Texas heat?

No es extremadamente difícil de instalar solo hay que saber que se está haciendo y que cables conectar, pero en la página del proveedor vienen manuales bastante claros del procedimiento paso a paso, además al ser actualizable es casi seguro que sea compatible.
Solo en ocasiones al prenderse no reconoce el estéreo y no habilita la función, solo es cosa de volver a prender el coche o apagar el estéreo para que se reinicie y todo correcto.
The firmware update was very straight forward via download of their software from the site to my tablet and using a USB cable from the tablet to the device.
I did have some difficulties with the installation at first as I was getting what I eventually found out through Google searching was the error code. This is when the LED on the unit flashes slowly between red and green. It took a few tries with programming and verifying wiring. It should be noted that I had to disconnect the USB cable and turn off/on the ignition then hold my volume up button until the unit recognized the vehicle for each trial of the head unit.
The wiring information provided in the manual supplied by Axxess was spot on. I had even referred to the wiring schematic from the vehicles wiring diagrams but ultimately it was the Axxess manual that was correct. The manual could be written a little more clearly but we also have to keep in mind the people who wrote it knew how to use it. The downloaded instructions "for my vehicle" threw me off a bit as it had conflicting information from the manuals that came with the packaging. I almost gave it four stars because of this. The steering wheel controls now work perfectly with the head unit so I give it a five star rating. While this may seem expensive it is well worth it to regain full functionality.
For those who are skeptical. Just buy it and it'll be the answer your looking for! Thank you
HOWEVER. The plastic case the unit game in is garbage. It popped open on me and is very cheap. For the 100$ a better case is needed. particularly as this is buried under the dash. Please don't give excuses about "..we've had these installed for years, etc, etc..." Just put it in a better case.
