HELP with Alpine CDA-D853 Head unit + iPod

[jjock86]

Can anyone help? I have the Alpine CDA-D853 head unit, it has the Ai-Net capability. I got an Ai-Net to RCA adapter, and a RCA to 1/8" plug adapter. the idea is to use the Ai-Net port as an Aux? In theory it should work, BUT its not working... wont goin into CD-CH mode. Does anyone have an idea why it wont work? Is this head unit not capable to run AUX with the adapter? Is this head unit Ai-NET Versatile Link compatible?

You may have to go into a setup menu and enable aux. My CDA-117, CDA-9886, CDA-9855, and IDA-X200/X100 all had the aux turned off by default.
