Unplug and replug your ipod. It's not a very positive connection from what I've found on mine. Once it's plugged in you should not be able to control the ipod other than through the bike radio.

Jon,

Can I assume that when you say you can use the iPod controls it plays fine, you have the iPod hooked up to the interface harness cable plug as one would expect?  Yes that's right
When I have any of my iPods hooked up to the interface cable connector as it is used, none of my iPod controls will do anything to the iPod.  The Boom Interface has taken control of the iPod and all I can do manually from the iPod to stop it is to unplug it.

Sometimes when I first get started the iPod is not recognized.  All I do is scroll with the right mode button through the WB, AM, FM etc back to the iPod and then it connects and sync's everytime. Tried that, doesn't change.

If yours is not doing this, it has to be something with the control wiring and not the audio output wiring of the interface. Yes and not sure where to look.

I'm sorry I cannot help further than that, but you have had some very knowledgeable guys helping so far and it may come down to a bad interface itself.

When I installed my iPod Interface module all that was wrong on mine was that it was an early one and the sound was not as good as when plugged into the front AUX socket.  I eventually found out that the 19 and 31 wires were incorrectly marked on the instructions, which the Sept instructions quickly corrected.  Once I changed them the sound was very "stereo" and not muted.

Good luck and let us know what you eventually find as the problem.

  Tried that, thinking maybe the unit had got damp.
