I have a 2012 ford figo 1.4 ambiante and the aux port is loose inside. How can I fix this if possible?

Aux port has loosened inside my radio and will not play from both speakers as the cable connection is not touching both sides inside the port. Is there a way to fix problem without involving the dealer?

SOURCE: aux cable snapped of inside external Audio port (AUX)

I have a 2007 CRV which had the same issue. I fixed this by:
- first removing the AUX port cover by carefully prying it up from both the rear-facing and front-facing edges. Once done, this exposes the AUX port mechanism itself.
- Using some needlenose plyers, I pulled out the AUX port component. It simply slides out.
- The trick now is to PUSH the broken piece out of the inside of the port. To do this, I first removed the "cover" that is covering the end of the port (opposite from the opening to the port). Be very careful with this step as you don't want to break the cover. It's very thin plastic.
- Once this cover is removed, I used a pin to push the piece that was lodged inside back out of the opening.
Reassembly was the opposite of this and was quick.
Hope that helps.

SOURCE: Pontiac G6 radio change problem

I had the same problem. You have to buy a bunch of extra parts and even then it probably still wont work. I ended up buying an aux input and hooking it up myself. It took 20 min and sounds great.

here's the link

SOURCE: AUX input in 07 impala was used with IPOD and I

try jiggling the jack in the port. Maybe the port is worn out. Can be replaced, but need to take radio apart.

How do I play my ipod in my 2012 Ford Focus titanium edition

The AUX button says SAT 1, SAT 2, AND SAT 3. It does NOT say AUX Line In and does not recognize anything plugged into the aux port. What can I do to get the AUX port working???

Make sure whatever is plugged into the Aux port is the proper size and configuration (2-lead, 3-lead; 3.5mm, etc) as far as the cable, is properly seated (not so big that it doesn't fit all the way in) and that the device is on. Most Aux inputs don't activate unless there is an active signal coming in.

2009 Chev Uplander radio keeps quitting and displaying Aux Input Device

There is a short in the aux input 'hole' that receives the wire. When you plug in the wire from your mp3 the radio automatically switches to aux. Since there is a short in the plug when you hit bumps or the vibration etc. the radio thinks that it is receiving a plug in and switches to aux. You will have to have the radio physically repaired (it will have to soldered) to repair the short. I own 2 of these vans and my parents own one and all three have had this issue. It is usually created from a wire plugged into the port hole and getting bumped or something which causes the port to loosen. Over time the metal connections inside short out. Just my two cents.

My aux inport won't work on 2006 Land Rover LR3. Would this be something effected by a bad fuse?

No. Radio works off single fuse. Some aux ports have to be enabled by mode/source setting. Check your radio manual on how to turn on aux port.

Accesory/Aux AC ports not working

I was able to contact a local service man who works on vehicle electrical. He directed me to a fuse box on the left side of the engine compartment specifically the #1 and #4 fuses. He said the fuses will burn and that is a common problem with the aux power ports and their locations. inspecting and replacing the fuses ended up being the fix.
