From Kenwood Product support"

"
Thank you for contacting Kenwood USA Corporation. As an authorized agent for Kenwood, we are responding to your recent email inquiry.

Check the cable to see if it says "KENWOOD" on the part where it splits into three cable lines. Many locations are selling cables that appear to be the KCA-iP300V, but are not and do not have the Apple Authorization chip inside of them.

If it does show "KENWOOD," then try reseeting the iPod. This is done by switching the HOLD on and then off, and then pressing the Menu and Center buttons together until the Apple Logo appears.

Please feel free to contact us again with any additional questions.

Resetting the iPod worked for me... Good luck.
