My car stereo aux adaptor died on me
I don't recall what the device is called, but you plug it into the OEM deck to connect a 3.5mm audio cable. I purchased it from a vendor years back.
This morning I pressed the CD/AUX button and got nothing. It would only play the CD that was in the deck. Normally, I press CD/AUX and it would cycle between the CD and the AUX input device.
If I don't have a CD in the deck and I press CD, I see a flashing cassette tape icon. Never seen this before.
Anyone else had this issue with their adaptor?

if its the PXDX kit we sold you(green box) did your battery happen to go dead or get low? If so this is your problem. You will need to disconnect, reset it and it should be fine.

Battery is a month old. I will disconnect it and see if it does anything.
Thank you for responding.

Could be the AUX portion of your radio. When I push my AUX button, nothing happens. When I tired to add an ipod adapter, nothing worked. I'd hit the AUX button and it wouldn't change. The only thing I can think is the radio itself is faulty. Hopefully that's not the case for you, but something else to consider.

Never said disconnecting the battery
You have to disconnect the pxdx to reset the unit
the battery disconnect causes the problem with it not working.
Reconnect the pxdx and your problem will be solved

I'll work on the car tomorrow and report the results back.

Side note: What part behind the OEM deck did you have to cut out to use a aftermarket deck?
Took everything apart again. Cycled all dip switches, plugged back in and no go.
Do you think I have a defective unit?
