Aftermarket steering wheel module caught fire need new one
 

I was trying to reprogramming my stereo interface and saw a bit of smoke, I inspected it and saw nothing wring then later when driving to the hardware store it caught fire. So now I have no radio or steering wheel controls.

I am looking for a new one and staying away from Axxess and their brand.

I was thinking of getting a PAC - RadioPro5 Radio Interface - Multi but wanted some recommendations on what people use.

I would definitely let Axxess know what happened. Might get some reimbursement.
Sorry this happened. Let us know how it goes with the replacement.

Wow! Bummer man! Let us know when you get a new module installed.

Bought the PAC - RadioPro5 Radio Interface - Multi, got it price matched and installed it myself. Overall the harness and wires are smaller than the GMOS-100. Wired it up non-amplified as the premium spekaers and amp are weak as noted.

Default steering wheel controls were a bit off but the relearn procedure isn't hard and having a LED light outside to clearly see is much better. Everything works well and I'm about as happy as can be for having to get a 2nd harness.

Metra basically said "sorry" and that's it. Won't go with them again ever

It's good to hear your new module is working well! Thanks for the update.
