flesta Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 I just bought a used 2010 Fiesta, but it didn't have an AUX connection. It did have an AUX button in the center console, though, so I thought I could just hook this up to the back of the stereo unit: Unfortunately it didn't work, as the display doesn't go into AUX mode when I press the AUX button. There is some kind of connection, as when I'm navigating some of the sub menus, and press the AUX button, it returns to the main radio screen. But it doesn't switch to AUX. I also have no USB or bluetooth in the car as far as I can see. This must be a very low specced version. Any ideas what to try next, or if there is a secret feature to enable AUX?

Luke4efc Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 I know on mine you have to use Forscan to activate DAB. Perhaps it's the same for you, but only guessing here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flesta Posted September 9, 2017 Author Share Posted September 9, 2017 It's worth giving it a try. I wasn't aware of Forscan. Going to order an ELM327 device now. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Save, restart ignition, and the AUX button works. Thanks @Luke4efc! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
