Unhappy ipod dropping out

I tried the dice kit with my 80gig IPOD for a few days and it won't play a whole song without dropping out and switching to the radio.If I try to select cd changer straight away its not there.Wait a few seconds and its back.Any help would be appreciated.

Try reinitializing the device:

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.

Let me know if these steps correct the problem.

Verify the DIP switches are all in the OFF position. If so, contact me directly via email with your full name and we'll have the module tested for you.
