BMW X3 '07 AUX not working

[jiorjis]

Hello! I'm new here and this is my firts post! I'm having problems with my X3's aux system. I plug in the wire(which works fine in volvo c30) and then plug it on my ipod but nothing happens in general. There is no AUX mode on my system (only cd player and radio). If anyone knows something about it or had the same problem with me please let me know!

Thanks for a great forum and greetings from Greece!

When you push the MODE button on the radio, does it cycle through all of the sources (AM/FM, Tape or in-dash CD, CD Changer, AUX, etc.)? If mode cycles through everything else, but you never see AUX, then you probably have a problem with the Aux cable. Or, the previous owner could have replaced the radio with an earlier version that lacks the aux input feature.
