ok I searched and didn't find what i was looking for. I have my pioneer cable and my 5th gen ipod.
I see it playing, however there is no sound.. I see album art and everything and all my play lists like on my D3, but no audio..
What am i missing here?
You have to go into the settings menu and turn the AV1 input to IPOD. That makes the unit look to the AV1 input for the audio and video signal when IPOD is the selected source instead of when AV1 is the selected source.
does it matter what version of firware i iphone or ipod runs? I will try to switch it to av1 to ipod, i tired that but i didn't get sound, maybe i gotta reset the radio....

I set AV1 to ipod and I see it says playing, but still no sound...
Any idea's?
My iPod runs version 1.3 and my iphone runs 1.4 both don't work...
just to confirm i am using the Pioneer USB Cable with the ipod adapter...
also, why does the ipod cable have av cables on it also? yellow/red/white.... what do they go too?
They go to the AV inputs on the back of the radio. If those aren't hooked up there will be no sound or video. The audio and video signals are not sent over the USB connection, that is just for controlling and charging the ipod.

well what sure does explain why it doesnt work lol, now i gotta take it all apart sigh lol...
all fixed now, i was wondering what those extra wires are for 
Anyways, this goes to show you what happens when you done read...
Yep! I just kinda figured that you already had it connected correctly lol.i'm having the same problem but everything is hooked up and wired correctly. Also I have a burned CD and no sound comes out, does show its playing. Any suggestions?
Sounds like you have something hooked up incorrectly as far as sending the sound to your speakers. Are you using a factory or aftermarket amplifier?
yep but have no problems getting am/fm radio...so what else could it be?
That is because you used the wrong wire as your amp turn on signal. You used the blue antenna wire (which only sends power out when the AM/FM radio is the selected source) instead of the blue system remote wire (which sends out power all the time the unit is powered on). This basically causes the amplifier only to turn on when the AM/FM radio is the selected source.
To fix that without pulling the unit out to switch the wires, go into the AV settings menu, and turn the ANT CTRL setting from RADIO to POWER.
man if you are right..definetly owe you a few beers 
gonna go pull the radio out now and see if that wire isn't connect, thanks!
You don't have to pull it out. Just follow the instructions he wrote out for you
got it fixed..thanks so much for the quick fix..dude you know your stuff
