    iPod Aux help

    Since April of 2014 I've had zero issues with my IPod in the left SB. On the trip to CT. Aux failed to show it after temporary using the other Aux input. Upon arrival at Ct. I found the IPod battery dead. So I charged it up and it works fine with a headset. However, to date when I plug it into the left SB jack AUX remains on the other AUX channel and doesn't switch to IPod?

    Any thoughts?

    The Honda stereo doesn't know it's there....
    Did the cable come loose at the other end? Not the iPod end?

    Did you hit AUX button more than once? Mine loses contact with central command and it takes two pushes of AUX. I would also suggest a NEG battery disco and reboot the system. Leave it off for several minutes,

    My Usb stopped working , I use a flash drive - it shows plugged in on the screen. I did not think of rebooting system. Im going to try that , if not going to the dealer. I thought there was a post on that, but cannot find it.

    I think the cable has become disconnected somehow. You shouldn't have found a dead ipod battery if it was. The USB charges when properly connected.

    Thanks Stroguy - I disconnected the battery and the reboot did at least fix my concern, hoped it fixed Fla_rider's concern also.

    Alexander Graham Bell would be embarrassed that we haven't progressed further. Glad you are good to go.

    Last night I didn't do battery disconnect, but I yanked the fuse to the radio and it went dead. After reinstalling the fuse it made no difference. I reset the ipod, no difference. I tired a flash drive to discover my files are m4p instead of mp3. So I'm working on that issue. Still the ipod doesn't work. I'll try a battery disconnect sometime this weekend.
