Raise Manuals & User Guides

Raise is a manufacturer of automotive electronics designed to facilitate the installation of aftermarket infotainment systems. The company specializes in CAN bus (Controller Area Network) boxes and vehicle-specific wiring harnesses that bridge the gap between modern Android head units and a vehicle's original computer systems.

By using Raise decoders, installers can retain essential factory features such as steering wheel audio controls, reverse camera activation, climate control displays, and door status indicators in vehicles ranging from Volkswagen and Peugeot to Honda and Mazda. Raise provides the essential hardware communication layer that allows universal Android stereos to function seamlessly within complex vehicle electronic architectures.

• What is the function of a Raise CAN bus box?

  A Raise CAN bus box acts as a translator between your vehicle's onboard computer and an aftermarket Android stereo. It enables the retention of original features like steering wheel controls, air conditioning visualization, and vehicle info displays.

• How do I configure the Raise protocol settings on my Android head unit?

  To configure the unit, access the 'Factory Settings' (often requiring a password like 8888 or 3368), navigate to the CAN bus or Protocol settings menu, select 'Raise' as the manufacturer, and then choose your specific vehicle model from the list.

• Why are my steering wheel controls not working after installing a Raise adapter?

  If SWC buttons are unresponsive, ensure the CAN bus decoder is firmly connected to the wiring harness. Additionally, verify that the correct protocol details (Brand: Raise, Model: Your Car) are selected in the head unit's factory settings menu.

• Does Raise make Android car stereos?

  Yes, in addition to interface adapters, Raise manufactures Android multimedia players tailored for specific car models, featuring integrated navigation, Bluetooth, and vehicle data support.
