Axxess CHTO-013 Installation guide

Brand: Axxess

Model: CHTO-013

Type: Installation guide

Axxess CHTO-013 is an interface designed to connect aftermarket radios to Chrysler vehicles manufactured from 2004 onwards. It offers a range of features to enhance the functionality of the new radio while retaining the vehicle's original features.

The CHTO-013 provides accessory power, retains the factory R.A.P. (retained accessory power) system, and allows for the integration of amplified or non-amplified audio systems. It also includes outputs for parking brake, reverse, and V.S.S. signals, which are essential for navigation systems.
