anthonyott99 Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 Just a warning to those of you with JVC HU's that want to attach your ipod touch, i ordered this cable from Ebay that was stated to work with Ipod touch 1st and 2nd gens and plug into the cd changer plug in the rear of JVC stereos. Also came with a hot and ground wire so you can charge your ipod also. Well i got it all wired which involved pulling my HU out, and plugged it all up , and surprise , it didnt work. It did charge but the plug got very hot and my HU didnt even recognize that anything was plugged into the changer port unhooked power wires just so it wouldnt get hot while trouble-shooting but never got it to work. Upon closer inspection the connectors inside the plug that goes int the HU look to be 180 degrees off. Plug only goes in one way so dont know how that couldve happened . Anyways, take it as a warning, mine at least did not work !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RooTxBeeR Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 Or you can get a HU with a usb port, and set it to run through your ipod, and problem solved, just use a normal Ipod cable and connect your ipod right the front of your HU and you don't have to spend any extra money time or effort to achieve what you are looking for. Or buy a $10 ciggerete charger for your ipod.

And i didnt really care to have the charger function, it just was part of that particular cable. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RooTxBeeR Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 Oh well, if your not looking for the charger function, does that HU come with a aux port? I wasn't looking to be an ass eclipse, he never said until now he wasn't looking for charge so I was throwing that out there because that's what I did. I used my usb port, but I have a 3rd gen nano, now that my usb hub on my HU doesn't work, I have a cigerette charger plugged to my ipod and the ipod plugged through a aux, and works fine.

Benji0687 Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 Honestly dude, the off-brand eBay cables are usually junk. I went through several for my Pioneer A/V setup before I decided to just pay for the actual Pioneer cabling and it was worth every dime. One of the cables was pinned 180 out like you described too.
