Default Steering Wheel Audio Control wires?

Hey, what Color are the wires that come out from the Steering Wheel Audio Controls?
I need to interface them to my carpc but I don't know which wires the buttons short when pressed.

Thanks.

They are on the same wiring harness as the aux input that connects to the stock HU.
I believe it's a white 20-pin connector.
SWC are 3 wires in that harness, Orange, Pink, and Green.

Orange - ground
Pink - Volume/Seek buttons
Green - Mode button

each button press shuts a switch that allows flow.. it has different resistances for where each switch is

basically... the radio understands a certain current means it's supposed to do a certain thing.
