Connecting Ipod Touch

[Sloeberrysal]

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

Shouldnt make the slightest bit of difference.

you just need a wire to connect from A to B.

I have one that connects A to B but I still can't get a display or am able to forward/search for songs

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.

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

Ok thanks :( I'll just have to put up with listening to Hubby's choice as well as my own lol...

I'll have to stop being lazy and make a playlist!
