Question ICELINK issue

I sent tom an E-Mail but wanted to know if anyone else had/has this issue. So I got the PLUS version plug it in and for a split second it works through my nav screen and then it goes to TR99 and displays AUX1 as in there is no connection. Now if I set the system to use controls on the Ipod itself it works like a charm. Any ideas guys?

Mine did that yesterday, all I did was unplug the iPod, change the radio mode to FM, plug the iPod back in, and put the radio back on "CDC." Worked like a charm!

We spoke over the phone this afternoon, this is a communication break between the iPod and the ice>Link. I would try to test with another iPod (even try the Apple Store) to see if you get the same results.

We can test the kit for you, but this would be a good idea to try before uninstalling.

Tom's a smart guy - he knows customer service is where it's at!

I swear, if you own a restaurant, and the food is crappy, as long as you've got good service, you won't be able to keep people out of the place!

(No, I'm not saying that Tom has crappy products! )

it is due to vibration...

I was experiencing this problem too.
It appears to happen when you hit a bump that's bad enough to shake the iPod just sligktly loose from the cradle.

I took a velcro strap to it (to hold the iPod more securely in the cradle).

Seems better now...
