I noticed that the Dice did not initialize and it went to the radio. When I try to select the Dice from the source button, I only get the radio and tape deck. I've made several trip including this morning and still no Dice. I checked the connections to the modules and everything seems to be okay. Should I try disconnecting the battery and rebooting the ipod per your earlier instructions on this board?

TIA,

Richard
If this step wasn't performed beforehand, it would be a good idea. Here's what we usually recommend:

1. Disconnect iPod from cable
2. Remove battery cables, negative first
3. Touch battery cable terminals together (away from battery) for +5 seconds, a small spark is normal as this is stored power draining from the system.
4. Allow cables to remain disconnected for about 5-7 minutes
5. Reconnect battery cables onto battery, negative last.
6. Reboot iPod by pressing on MENU and CENTER buttons for +5 seconds and then reconnecting to the DICE cable after the reboot process is completed.
