hi guys.

i now this has been asked before but i cant find a straight answer and i am going mad.

basically i have a 2007 grande punto 1.9 multijet

it has the standard factory fitted blue&me head unit.

i want to install an aux to play music off my phone/ipod.

i purchased the BLUE aux connector... but this doesnt work for me... and apparently it only works on after market head units..

i have heard that there is a yellow aux connector.

can anyone please just give me a straight answer on how to use the aux function... im going mad trying to find a to the point answer..

any advice is appreciated

thanks guys

I've also wondered this before, I reckon you would have to lose your blue and me connection out of the back of the stereo to allow an aux in.

Don't get why fiat didn't just add a 3.5mm aux in, instead of two USB?

we had to buy a blue and me adaptor for ours plug that in the usb port the plug ya ipod in that

one of these

its something so simple yet it has got me so frustrated, i fitted the blue connector in the back of the stereo, but nothing is picked up. someone then said if i cut and sand away the plastic i can fit it into the cd changer slot, (i would rather have ipod than cd) so i did it... doesnt work. and now i cant return the item as i have had at it.

last i saw the blue&me ipod adaptor things are really expensive.

ive gone from an old fiesta that played my music through wireless bluetooth. to a nice 2007 that hasnt even got aux.

doesnt anyone know if the yellow adaptor off ebay actually works?!

im currently playing music off a usb stick through the usb in the glove box.
but it takes so long to search through songs on the tiny dash display.


just want a straight fix to a simple problem.

like i said, any advice is appreciated

The ipod adapter, get it, its so useful!!!!

When i looked at getting my punto I looked at a 1.4 dynamic sport 2008 (which I bought) and an active sport 2007 (a series 1 version for anyone thats interested). The strange thing is my car has two usb ports but the active sport had 1 usb port AND an aux port in the glove box. I have never seen one since so I dont know if I dreamt this or wether it was aftermarket or official. As I didnt buy that car i never had the chance to have a proper look

im pretty sure you have to buy the blue & me adaptor

i agree it will be useful but for £50+...

would rather install a £10 aux. people have done it, just not sure how

Need to disconnect the B&M I believe, and also disconnect the power source for the head unit and then repower it up to reset it and get it to accept the aux lead, this is what I had to do fitting one to our Panda.

so i have to choose between my handsfree blue and me, or aux???

that sucks.
