No Device

[Ernest T]

I've had an iPod plugge in from day 1 and today I got the no device message. Everything else works. I removed and replaced the iPod and the audio fuse. I have the latest firmware update. Any ideas what else to check?

Remove the Glove box : 2 screws - 1 on the outside and one on the inside,
then lift the front edge up and rearwards to disengage the lugs from the rubber grommets,
and then check the security of the wiring plug that attaches to the rear of the USB Socket.

It is held on with a "bar" type of spring clip where you push the bar in to release it.
( Very similar to the wiring plug for the front indicators ).

When putting it back on it should "click" into place - I've heard other Members mention
that theirs wasn't latched on properly and over time it worked loose

Good advice all.  Also ( I mentioned this in your "had enough" post but will mention again here in case you don't see it, check with another Apple cable.  Apple cables fail frequently and even those which were known to be good can go bad.  I have several times experienced a cable which continues to provide electrical power but doesn't provide the audio connection.  I've also had the reverse occur.

 So I get home and gather up a new cable and an Allen wrench. I turn the key on, open the lid to the compartment and navigate to the iPod on the audio screen and ithe iPod comes on!  I wiggled the cable, but couldn't get the no device message. I don't know what the issue was, but it's working again.

I Hate it when that happens.
Electrical issues are hard enough to figure out.
Random working, not working just makes it harder.

I would have a look at the connectors. Did one work a bit lose?
Any corrosion to be seen?
Maybe a bit of di electric greese?
