How does this work?

[Juice0723 10+ year member]

I just installed my pioneer cd-ib100ii ipod adapter for my 880prs head unit.

Have the power wires, bus cable and ipod hooked up. It doesn't show anything on my head unit. I thought I just hit the source knob like how I go from radio tuner to cd. But there is no ipod when I keep hitting the knob.

How would I make this work?

thanks.

is the ipod on? not sure if this'll help.

I turned it on and pressed play on it and said song was playing. And I could scroll though my ipod while its plugged into the cd-ib100ii.

Maybe there's a setting on the deck to turn on iPod

I looked everywhere. Just said in the manual you press the source knob until you come across ipod. But thats not happening. I also found aux 1 & aux 2 in the settings, I turned them both on and still nothing.

shouldnt be able to do that, its supposed to say pioneer on it.

make sure the odd shaped cable is connected and seated properly. which ipod is it?

mine doesnt work with the ipod touch, i phone, or the 30 gb video for some reason....

mine was and is always automatic....ipod doesnt show up until the ext. device tells it too.

make sure the device is connected w power and ground

is your ipod charging while connected to the device?

 

[Juice0723 10+ year member]

nope. It doesn't do anything when connected to the device. And its a 4gb ipod nano.

idk, see if you have a buddy with an older ipod you can try out.

i have an ipod mini with a completely dead battery that ill sell you that'd work perfect for this....because it charges all the time.

My cd-ib100ii is connected to the same power and ground as the head unit. I will try and switch it tomorrow to see if it does anything.

sounds like a faulty IPOD processor

If the new cd-ib100ii is faulty. Then that sucks. I bought it from U got a deal on ebay. I don't think they have warranty on their items.
