Peange Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Hi all, I'm trying to retro fit USB to my Fiesta. I've done all the hardware requirements and took it in to Ford for the software. It's been in twice and still not working. It can see the iPod/USB and all the tracks, but it doesn't play any music. Ford are now arguing they've done everything I asked them to. (I even left a list of the parameters to change, but who knows if they looked at it). It's an iPod Touch 2nd Gen and I've formatted the USB as FAT32. It seems to me like they've missed something out? Or maybe a faulty BT module? Going in to argue with the Tech tomorrow so would like to know what the problem could be. Thanks, Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iNath Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Can you stream music over bluetooth from your phone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselPig Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 If I insert a USB stick with MP3 tunes into the USB port it sees the stick but I have to press AUX on the dash to play it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peange Posted February 19, 2013 Author Share Posted February 19, 2013 Nope, doesn't work either. I have the option on the car's menu though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peange Posted February 19, 2013 Author Share Posted February 19, 2013 Mine does the same DieselPig, but when I choose a track nothing happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselPig Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I don't have an IPod is there some setting in the IPod that must be set or does it automatically sense a USB connection? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peange Posted February 19, 2013 Author Share Posted February 19, 2013 Automatic I believe. It's the same story as the USB, I can select a song but nothing happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iNath Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Can you use bluetooth for phonecalls? If you still can't hear audio I'd say the module is the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peange Posted February 19, 2013 Author Share Posted February 19, 2013 The phone works fine, just doesn't play music. The phone worked before ford started playing with it too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peange Posted February 19, 2013 Author Share Posted February 19, 2013 I should also say that when I pick a song, the display reverts back to line in. It never shows USB, iPod etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peange Posted February 20, 2013 Author Share Posted February 20, 2013 So to summarise, In the AUX menu I can see USB, iPod, BT Audio, Line in. BT phone - works 3.5mm jack - works USB/iPod - can select select song, but no song plays and display reverts back to line in icon (circle with an arrow pointing at the centre) BT Audio - Stays on device menu with the option highlighted. No sound and reverts back to line in after it times out. My local garage are now refusing to take the car back in, saying that they've done everything they can. Most definitely haven't looked at the list of params to change as I took it in today and they hadn't seen it before. Just said "it's done" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
