Why won't my 2006 Scion xA AUX audio input jack work?

[Kristie C]

I try to plug in my ipod to it and nothing happens. The volume is up, the ipod is on and playing a song, but no sound comes out of the speakers. I push the AUX button and its like nothing happens. Why do they include an AUX input jack if it doesn't do anything?

I bought the car new in Sept 2005. I got an ipod a few years after that. My ipod radio transmitter broke so now I'm wondering my AUX jack is broken.

I had the same problem with my 06 xb. The connector on the bottom of the aux connector sometimes comes out so you need to pull up the plastic from the center consul and replug it in. It isnt that hard but I would suggest going on some websites to see how people take apart their center consul
