I just bought a car with an Alpine CDE-9852 which only has an i pod cable hook up. Would this work to adapt that cable to a regular aux? Thank you.

It doesn't recognize it at least my stereo couldn't recognize it Alpine wouldn't

I did not look up that Alpine unit, but that is the reason why I bought this cable. My headunit in my pickup only had an Ipod Male, so I use this cord to play Pandora through my Android phone. It works well and is better quality than the other cord i previously bought.*edit: Make sure the Alpine unit can play AUX connections though. I had to change the settings in my headunit's menu from iPod to AUX to play through the cord.

This device connects to your car audio ONLY through FM transmitter. If you already have an aux in, you should use it instead. A simple cable from your phones headphone jack to the aux-in on your stereo should work.

As long as the iPod had bluetooth you are good to go. If not, then you would have to use a stereo cable to plug into the aux input.

It will be plug and play if your receiver has the same wiring on the back as an alpine receiver. If it doesn't it could still work if you cut the connector off of the amp on both sides and manually wire them together to the cars wiring and you stereos wiring. The wiring on the amp is no different than any modern receiver. Two power wires, a ground, and speaker wires.

I just bought this and tried it on my 2008 Audi A4 with Symphony II+ radio with OEM 30pin iPod connection, and it does not work. It is powered and pairs with my phone, but the radio does not recognize it when music is playing from my phone. Note that this is radio is before the new Audi MMI interfaces came out.

I am so sorry but I can't assist you with this. The adapter was a Christmas gift for my son. He no longer uses it because he has a newer vehicle which doesn't require this adapter. He also used it for an I-Pod not a phone so even if he still used it, I couldn't help anyway. My apologies!

If your amplifier has an auxiliary input, it is possible. Test this by plugging your iPod directly into the amplifier with the cable whatever cable you need to use. If this works, then using the airwave will also work. You use the same cable that you plug your iPod into your amplifier with to plug the airwave into your amplifier.

Question to Brad, how did you do this? I also have an 2010 Audi A4 with an MMI cable, used my IPhone 4 for listening to music but now i got a IPhone 6 and want to use a Bluetooth Adapter but it does not work?Any tips? Thanks for your answer.

Yes, just get a pre-amp with a digital connector, pretty simply for any aux connections.

If you use an FM transmitter, like those from griffintechnology.com, yes - it works the same. No iPod does this right out of the box, they all need an accessory to transmit the music to the car stereo. Or, you can take the more effective route and get an Alpine or Pioneer car stereo that offers direct connection to the iPod via the Alpine KCA-420i - this provides a dock connector and allows the car stereo to directly control the iPod. I upgraded my wife's car stereo for her birthday to an Alpine with the KCA-420i and the sound is AMAZING... far better than using an FM transmitter.

You would need an AUX jack in your car. If you do, just get a cable that has 3.5mm jacks on both ends and plug it in!

I use the 3.5mm aux as an output. I have had success using the wall adapter straight into the Pyle device and using a male cable to the aux input of my stereo. Pairing will fail if I take my iPhone (my device of choice) too far away and I will need to re-pair when it gets back in range.

The stereo needs to have a CD exchanger in your trunk. The iPod cable then replaces that cable. My car did not have the CD exchanger, but I thought it would have a place for a connector. I was wrong. My stereo can not be directly connected as it had no such connector spot. I returned this device as it was useless to me.

I use it with my I Pod in a case and it works just like the regular plug. I bought it so I can plug my I Pod into my Yamaha dock wile my I Pod is in its case.

in my case, when i use my aux cable, it was worked with bad sound. so i think that you'd better use this with orginal cable. anyway, it is possible to use ordinary jack.

Hi, yes this works great using the aux cable. Durable, rugged and great battery life too. It does exactly what I need it to do.

I believe you will need the kit. The AUX switch will not work. You need the head unit that emits the z-wave. Note: make sure you have a neutral wire at the switch. If you don't, no configuration will work.
