2010 Edgar SEL AWD Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Not sure what's going on. I open up the iPod function on the iPhone, start my playlist using the iPhone and it plays through the car and then constantly cuts out. Any ideas?

kosh Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Sounds to me like an interference problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

igcitng Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 There is a forum online called 'A Rubber Door' that talks about this in length. Some fixes mentioned are to turn off the wifi, the location services, etc-but then there is so much you cannot use your iPhone for like maps, without turning everything back on. The iPhone is not completely compatible with the Sync so it skips and you cannot use all of the steering wheel controls either, just volume. Life is better with the iPhone/iPod plugged into the usb. I originally used my iPhone as an iPod in the car and I started having trouble with the phone functions acting up, so I got a little Nano just for the car.

I guess if all your songs are in that format... but just convert them to MP3 and drop them on a USB stick. A 4 gig USB ought to cost what $30 or something cheap. Drop a lot of your music on there and go to town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riverart Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 I was having same problem. I just purchased my Edge in March so I was learning how to use the system though I must admit I don't read the instructions. Is the problem when you are connected to USB? If so, while the system is in USB mode, check your phone. It should say Sync or something on the screen and at the bottom, there are icons. Touch them and it gives you the option to use the bluetooth or the usb interface. I choose usb and the sound reappears. Hope this helps.

Personally I use mine in the gym all the time so a flash drive just wont cut it for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
