the f900bt I put in a customer's truck has been a bloody nightmare. Now the ipod has an issue. it's plugged into the usb cable, it's set on av1 to ipod, it brings it up, recognizes it, brings up the menu played the songs, but no audio output, any thoughts

As many posts will attest, the audio does not come in via USB, it comes in via the R/W/Y RCA inputs, have you verified they're correctly connected?

 

The fact that you get ipod control says the USB is fine, the audio is passed analog via RCA.

just get in to audio setting and turn on av1 or av2 will solve the problem

he said it was working before...i have no idea. I would think that, ideally, you wouldn't have to run rcas to get audio, it should all be plug and play, shouldn't it?

Have you pulled the HU back out to check and make sure the RCA's didn't come unplugged ?

YES.. you *DO* need the RCAs to get audio with an ipod, if the RCAs aren't connected, or have become disconnected, you will be able to control the ipod, but you will not get any sound.

 

That matches your description perfectly
