Gareth Mattey Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 Hi, Well i bought a fiesta studio, basic model but im sure i read on there website that even that has aux input but obviously not. I thought it was just bluetooth and usb thats an extra. It has the aux button on the stereo but it doesnt do anything. Im currently using a logic fm transmitter that plays stuff from my phone via the radio. Is it possible to get the aux connection fitted?

andyedge Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 You should have a jackplug socket next to the 12v socket below your gearstick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gareth Mattey Posted January 29, 2011 Author Share Posted January 29, 2011 There isnt one there, just the plastic cover thats plain. Im guessing one could be fitted as has the button on the stereo but not sure. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briggsy Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 if the button doesn't change the stereo into AUX mode then it would need a software upgrade also. i guess in another cost cutting exercise they took it out of the basic model in the model restructure.

Gareth Mattey Posted January 29, 2011 Author Share Posted January 29, 2011 It has the button but doesnt change into anything like aux mode. It must be possible since already has the button and yes software update id imagine but ford would probably charge hundreds if even possible. Just handy for my sat nav, not too fussed about music as can use cds if need be. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark t Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 The Aux button changes between the Aux input jack and the USB socket, if you have no USB it can't change anything! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gareth Mattey Posted January 30, 2011 Author Share Posted January 30, 2011 Oh right well theres definately no aux socket so guessing they just left the button in so they didnt have to redesign a new stereo just for one model Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCJ Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 i dont think it'd be hard to add one, on my golf ive added an aux cable that leads into my glove box, which is great as i can hide a ipod in there and not worry about it on show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark t Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 According to ford there should be an AUX socket! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gareth Mattey Posted January 30, 2011 Author Share Posted January 30, 2011 Thats what i thought, i looked at some picture/table comparing all the specs of different models and it said even the studio had aux input. Im guessing no one else had to remove a cover to get to there usb and aux? The cover is clipped in place and doesnt seem easy to remove without some force.

Gareth Mattey Posted January 30, 2011 Author Share Posted January 30, 2011 Look at this link, it says its standard on the studio. http://www.config.ford.co.uk/fordconnection/multimedia/gbr_en/00w/yyh/gbr_en00wyyhintspc.htm Hopefully the link works ok.
