Sloeberrysal Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 I've just purchased a brand new Ka Zetec and I'm trying to connect my ipod touch using an aux cable. The sound is great but although I set the display to 'title' all it shows is AUX and I can't forward or go back using the controls on the dashboard so i'm stuck listening to the random shuffle from the ipod. Any ideas? The aux cable isn't a genuine Ford one, would this make a difference? Has anyone used anything different that lets them control what they are listening to? Any help gratefully received Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeebowhite Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Shouldnt make the slightest bit of difference. you just need a wire to connect from A to B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sloeberrysal Posted March 8, 2014 Author Share Posted March 8, 2014 I have one that connects A to B but I still can't get a display or am able to forward/search for songs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeebowhite Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 an Aux cable would not control the iPod from the stereo, it only acts like a pair of headphones and puts the music out the Speakers. You would need to control the iPod from the device itself and not the stereo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delboy Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 i think to use the stereo to control the ipod you need to connect it through usb not aux so your a bit stuck m8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
