Default Steering wheel controls !!help!!

I have a new kenwood headunit. With a axxess aswc-1 control. Problem is I can get it to pick up on my volume down command!! It will pick up all the other controls. 07 street glide and it all worked before the swap. Any ideas???

Steering wheel? That may be your problem.
I think you may have posted in the wrong forum.
Sorry. Couldn't help it.

No harm lol I just went with the product name. As that might be the piece that is failing me. Not sure why the down volume is the only thing not working.

Where did you ground the pink/white wire? Find a better known ground and that should fix your problem.

are you sure you grounded the correct end of it? the end coming from the handlebar controls is the end you need to ground.

Yeah I'm pretty sure. But I'll double check. Funny that all the controls work but volume down.

No I didn't. And I just tried a ground right to the battery and no luck with the volume down.
