Title: Mfd2
Post by: dan_gt on November 16, 2010, 05:47:25 pm
On the rear of the mfd2 opposite the quadlock, there is an iso plug socket, anyone know what this is for?

My ipod dock has stopped working since fitting my parrot and im trying to eliminate maybes.

Also with the sot lead one of the oem plugs becomes redundant and doesnt connect to anything...is this my problem?

The one on the right is the AUX socket as far as i'm aware!

Rich is spot on, it is indeed an Aux in connector. You can buy a multimedia adaptor off the bay that plugs in and gives you 2 audio phono leads and one video phono lead to that you can connect pretty much anything that has a composite output.

On Rich's photo above, the main quad lock is split into 3 parts. The top 2 smaller pin ones are for telephone and cd changer. The larger lower one is power, can bus and speakers.

Cheers for the replies, i will double check the smaller pins tomorrow, as i beleive the cd changer connection is the same as the ipod connection?
