ikesound.com isnt BAD correct?

Call them, it sounds like it could be a defect unless you're just not noticing something very obvious/simple

Do you have your speakers on an amp? Did you use the blue or the blue w/white wire for the amp remote? If you used the blue wire the problem is that your amp is turning off when you switch to iPod because the blue wire is the lead for the power antenna, not the amps.

It's an iDAX. Rethink that question. It has no Aux in, and it's a HU DESIGNED for use with an iPod.

Pull the radio fuse and see if it keeps doing it. We've had this at work, and usually, replacing the unit fixes it. Doesn't usually draw the much current, though. Usually, .10-.15A.

i just reset the ipod and thats it, but sometimes in the morning it takes a while for it to play through my headunit but i think its got something to do with the cold.
