The iPod is the only thing that is played in my car, I wouldn't ever bother with an FM modulator, converts digital to analogue which will ruin the quality. What was the cable you bought? Linkage if possible?

Have you made sure you've selected the source to be the CD changer input?

You should be able to change the source via the SRC button to the far right. That'll shuffle through the selections such as Radio/CD/iPod/Aux In.


Try that and see what happens :)

I'm not sure but it should either say Auxiliary Input or along those lines. I found the manual for it, have a flick though and see what you can make of it.

Thanks, I printed it off and yes said press SRC or whatever and it should do it but also mentions other models so am thinking that I need an adapter or something in order to activate it? Oh well back to MP3's  :angry: :cry:

Sorry buddy, the only thing I would assume is it's the wrong cable or a faulty cable, I dunno what else to suggest.
