If your iPod doesn’t work in your car stereo, it’s time to fix that! This guide will show you how to install the jack in your car stereo so that you can listen to your music.
What You’ll Need
You will need:
– An iPod dock or an iPhone dock
– A 3.5mm stereo plug to RCA adapter
– A Philips screwdriver
– Some electrical tape
– An instruction manual for your car stereo
1. Start by locating your car stereo’s input/outputs. These are usually located at the back of the stereo, behind the buttons and knobs. If you don’t know where they are, try looking online or asking someone else in your car who has a working stereo.
2. Next, find the 3.5mm stereo plug to RCA adapter that corresponds with your iPod or iPhone. It will most likely be labeled “AUX.” You’ll also need to find a Phillips head screwdriver to install it.
3. Now, connect the 3.5mm male stereo plug to the 3.5mm female RCA adapter, and then connect the other end of the adapter to the input/outputs on your car stereo.
4. Finally, tape down the connector so it doesn’t fall out while you’re driving!
How to Install the Jack
If your car stereo does not have an auxiliary input, you can install an iPod jack to add music playback capability. This is a quick and easy process that can be done in just a few minutes.
Step 1: Locate the bracket for the iPod jack in your car. It is typically on the side or rear of the stereo.
Step 2: Remove the original stereo jack by unscrewing it.
Step 3: Replace the iPod jack bracket with the new one. Screw it in place using a screwdriver.
Step 4: Reinstall the original stereo jack.

2) Plug in the male end of the iPod Jack into the port on your stereo and plug in the female end of the jack into your iPod.
