Reason for block

Complaint:

iPod menus are not visible on the head unit, instrument cluster or intermittent connection interruptions

Cause:

Faulty internal wires of the UCI connector (Figure1) in the glove box. Note that even if the UCI adapter cable (which plugs into the iPod/Aux

device) is securely clipped to the UCI connector and an audible "click" is heard by the user, it still may not be possible for the iPod to transfer data;

these disconnected internal wires may not be visible (Figure 2).

Attachments

Remedy:

Inspect the UCI harness between the UCI connector and the UCI itself.

Note:

Do not replace the UCI control unit, inspect the cable/harness and replace if necessary. See below for the correct part number & model.
