How to get my iPhone to play through my car speakers?
I recently bought a 2003 Ford Explorer privately from a person who replaced the original Ford head unit with some cheapy made in China 7 inch Double-DIN car stereo. It's so bad that I don't even know the brand name. Anyway, I'm looking into how to connect my iPhone so it plays through the speakers. I connect the phone, it charges, I can control the music from the head unit but it comes out of my iPhone's external speakers. I tried connecting my old first gen ipod nano and that worked perfectly. I'm wondering if there's a setting on my iPhone where I can get this to work. Maybe the head unit doesn't like my phone? I don't know.
Your hu might be too old and not upgraded software to work with new models of new products.
Or, try to connect stereo out from your iPhone to AUX in your hu.
Also, try to play the system when nothing is inserted into the iPhone phones connection.
- Pandora won't play through car speakers via USB? I currently drive a 2012 Chevrolet Malibu LT and I usually play Pandora on my iPhone via the USB out which is included in the sound systems inside the Malibu models. For a while everything played perfectly, but not it does not. When I plug it in, my car recognizes that it is plugged in and the name of the Artist and song appear on the sound system like normal. However, it only plays through the speakers on my phone. What is the problem? Should I get a different connection other than USB?
