JourneyManErik Posted July 20, 2022 Report Share Posted July 20, 2022 I'm looking for some info on the wiring harness needed for an aftermarket head unit. I have a 2010 Journey SXT, without steering wheel controls and an REQ radio. I'm getting mixed messages if i need a canbus module, even though there is no external amp. Some suggest canbus is needed to control turning the radio on and off. Crutchfield wants to sell me a PAC C2R-CHY4 Wiring Interface, which includes a "radio replacement module". Has a bunch of stuff. But i don't know if i need all that. Metra has a simpler wiring harness for $20. But i'm reading that without a canbus module the lights won't work right on the radio, nor will it shut off when you turn off the ignition. Not sure what to believe.
