Radio Status Control Harness for Ford 2020-Up

The AXRSCH-FD3 is a vehicle-specific radio status control harness built to seamlessly integrate a broad selection of aftermarket radios into non-amplified vehicles. It bridges the gap between factory settings and your new head unit, preventing the loss of essential vehicle data. This harness retains steering wheel audio controls, Retained Accessory Power (R.A.P.), and original equipment (OE) personalization settings, while also supplying 12-volt accessory power and crucial NAV outputs like reverse, parking brake, and speed sense.

Designed for an easy plug-and-play installation, it enables users to view and adjust HVAC functions and vehicle gauges directly from the aftermarket screen. Additionally, it supports an auto stop/start override and retains safety chimes, though an external speaker is required. This harness must be paired with the AXRSC radio status control interface (sold separately), and an additional Axxess Amp Retention Interface is required if you are maintaining a B&O amplified system.

Product Features:

  • Wire harness to install a new car stereo
  • Compatible with select 2020-2023 Escape and Maverick
  • Designed for non-amplified vehicles
  • Designed to plug to AXRSC Radio Status Control Interface (sold separately)

  • No wire cutting needed for factory stereo connectors
  • Designed for select aftermarket stereos
  • Provides accessory power (12-volt 10-amp)
  • Retains R.A.P. (Retained Accessory Power)
  • Provides NAV outputs (parking brake, reverse, and speed sense)
  • Allows a visual of HVAC and gauges on the aftermarket stereo screen
  • Allows adjustment of HVAC functions through aftermarket stereo screen
  • Retains audio controls on the steering wheel
  • Allows for auto stop/start override (if equipped)
  • Works in both single and dual-zone vehicles
  • Retains safety chimes (speaker sold separately)
  • Allows the retention and adjustment of the OE personalization settings
