Q: Does this head unit support steering wheel controls?
A: Hi, LX! Great news! Yes, this unit supports steering wheel control. Hope this helps! Regards, Sam
A: Seems almost the same as ax5000, the 3000 has resistive screen instead of capacitive screen on the 5000. 5000 has 2 usb inputs where 3000 only has one. I've been happy with the screen on the 3000 so far, though.
A: They could not in my case. Had to run a new USB. I was pretty disappointed in my Best Buy installers over all. Been back 4 times to have stuff fixed or adjusted. Steering wheel controls still do not work and they do not care.
Q: Does the USB port charge your phone while connected to CarPlay?
A: Yes it does. Works great.
Q: Do I need a backup camera already for that feature to work with this system?
A: It does not come with a camera so you'll need your own to install
Q: What all is needed for installation?
A: Depends on what you drive, whether or not you have an existing system, etc. I took my '04 Dodge Ram by the store, spoke directly with the tech installer, told him what I wanted. He guided me to this radio, and I am very happy with it. I had to have a new face plate, microphone, co-ax cables, usb cable. Very affordable and all arrived to me in about one week. Instead of trying to figure it out just go by the store, so much easier that way.
Q: Will this work with my steering wheel controls in my 2011 Silverdao?
A: When we purchased it in store, they asked if we wanted it to be steering wheel compatible. You need to purchase another part, and it requires more money for labor costs. We skipped on that service for now, since the labor to install the stereo was free as a promotion. We also figured we could install it ourselves - it should just a matter of buying the correct harness and plugging it in.
