New member Username: KkshPost Number: 2 Registered: Mar-06 | Hi, I've just purchased an PXP02 Ipod interface and it charges and plays through my Pioneer DEH-P580MP but I can't control it through the head unit's controls. Is there anything that I've over looked? I've got a 6GB Ipod Mini by the way. |

From what I could tell, it doesn't look like it allows for interface with the HU, just charging and playback. I have the standard Pioneer version of that deck (deh-p5800mp) and I've always thought deck controls for the iPod were over rated, I just use the PIE PIO/P-RCA Adapter. This was the only site I could find with any info on the PXP02, and it doesn't mention HU control interface: http://www.installer-data.com/item/display_item.php?it=pxp02 |
