Yes, the Kenwood DMX4707S should be compatible with your 2012 Ram 1500's steering wheel controls, but you will need a specific adapter to make it work.

Here's what you'll need:

Crutchfield Maestro SW interface: This adapter will translate the signals from your steering wheel controls to a format that the Kenwood DMX4707S can understand. You can find it on Crutchfield's website for around $50.

Wiring harness: You'll also need a wiring harness to connect the Maestro SW interface to your Kenwood DMX4707S and your Ram 1500's wiring harness. Crutchfield can usually recommend the right harness for your specific vehicle.

Once you have the adapter and wiring harness, you can follow the instructions that come with them to install them. The installation process is usually not too difficult, but if you're not comfortable doing it yourself, you can take your car to a stereo installation shop and they will do it for you.

Here are some additional things to keep in mind:

The specific Maestro SW interface and wiring harness you need will depend on the exact model of your Ram 1500. Make sure to enter your vehicle information on Crutchfield's website to get the right parts.

Some of the steering wheel controls may not be compatible with the Kenwood DMX4707S. For example, the voice control button may not work.

If you have any questions about the installation process, you can contact Crutchfield's customer support for help.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
