Pac swi fail :(

Hey guys, I'm having ALOT of difficulties with my pac-swi adapter. I have double and triple checked the wiring and it still looks perfect, as per pac-swi's instructions here:

http://www.pac-audio.com/SWI/SWIAppG...od&swiOptions=

I'm about to PULL my hair out, because I just can't for the life of me figure out what is wrong. After setting the dial to 3 (Kenwood), and programming for 8, everything looks okay, but when I restart the car and press Program one time, the LED goes on, and then turns off. I don't even get a CHANCE to begin programming

I've spent the last few hours looking around and I noticed something interesting. It seems that everybody else has been using THIS diagram from Pac's website:



Whereas I've been using:


So what gives? I'm starting to think that Pac-Swi just royally f'd up their diagrams recently, and that's why my adapter won't work. But then I realized.... even with the first diagram, it's impossible to use slots 22 (Green) and 32 (NA), because there is no existing wire in slot 32!

So now I'm just at a loss for words. What the **** is going on?

I'm planning to switch slots 12 (Blue with Black line) and 2 (Half Blue Half Black) tomorrow and see what happens.

You need to use pins 12 and 2. Those are the correct wires. I had the same problems. I couldnt really find the right information anywhere, but finally figured it out on my own.
