Will the steering wheel controls work if I use the USB slot to plug in an iPod with a 30 pin cable? I've got a 2006 Mazda 6.

No it will not work with the iPod 30 pin connection, only able to use the controls via SD card or usb thumb drive but volume and mute still works of your playing music through aux

1:The usb slot can not support ipod ,just support USB DISK.but you can use the AUX to plug an ipod.2:That can work for 2006 mazda 63:It can support steering wheel controls after install it.

The steering wheel controls works well with this adapter for 2006 Mazda 6, but doesn't support ipod

I've got it installed in an '03 Accord which should effectively be the same, it works well now. Earlier firmwares seemed less stable, but for the last several months it has worked well and steering wheel controls have worked for most things in USB streaming mode (Pandora, Amazon MP3) with my Nexus 5.

In order for any aftermarket radio to work with steering wheel controls you have to use an integration kit. You lose all functions of it as soon as you take your factory radio out.

No, to make the steering wheel controls work you need to get a Steering Wheel Interface Controller from someone like Axxess or PAC (both can be found here on Amazon)

Uhhhh, it depends on your situation. You can't control the iPod through the 3.5 mm cable. If you can connect the USB to a stereo and that stereo is controlled by a steering wheel then I imagine you could control an iPod from your steering wheel using this cable assuming you had stereo-iPod compatibility. But if you could connect this iPod to your stereo why would you need the 3.5 mm jack? (Maybe to play audio through a device other than the stereo?) I pulled apart my cable and can see that the data pins are connected (30-pin to USB).

While I can't say definitively, if your car has the USB connection with what looks like an ear phone hole next to it that appears to fit this wire, then yes it should work. If you previously tried using just a standard USB wire, that would explain why it wouldn't work properly. The extra prong on the wire provides the two-way communication between your car and your ipod. Best of luck! Also, if you want to verify prior to purchase, you can stop by the dealer and see what they sell (just probably costs twice as much)

Yes and no. I got my car stereo awhile ago and at the time had a few different devices I needed to control (cd changer, satellite receiver Ipod, etc) I could control with it. But these days I keep it simple... my phone as an mp3 player or with Pandora connected via Bluetooth. The remote will work as a controller in that regard, but I am not sure it will work controlling any other devices. But since getting a replacement controller to replace the original one would have run 39 - 50 bucks.... I decided to take a chance with this one at under $10. It does what I need it to do and much less Rusk money wise. Hope this helps. Yes and no.

It does work with steering wheel controls , but If you have a BOSE system, like I do, this will not be strong enough to provide sound to your car.

Sorry, just seeing your question. Yes, it will work, but you would need separate steering wheel controls in addition.

I have not tried usb, I use aux 3.5 mm audio Jack. I can use steering wheel controls.

I have had this cable for about a month and use it with the older iPod Classic. When I hit the forward arrow on my steering wheel (or on audio controls), the current song stops and a new one begins. Hope that helps.

Not on it's own. You will need a steering wheel interface to make them work. Example: http://www.walmart.com/ip/24214151?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId;=3&adid;=22222222227017483313&wl0;=&wl1;=g&wl2;=t&wl3;=33109757316&wl4;=&wl5;=pla&wl6;=50607257796&veh;=sem that might not work on your car, you will have to investigate, maybe consult a stereo shop even.

My car (2009 Nissan Cube) has an iPod hookup, and this product did not work with it. I would also be pretty sure that if your car stereo takes control of your iPod/iPhone (to where you can't control the iPod/iPhone directly and it makes you use the stereo's controls), this product will not work.

Ok... I am seeing conflicting stories. Does this cable provide power? When the car is on, I want my ipod to enter into charging mode. Also, will this item work with all radio control features (to include steering audio controls)?

I bought it for my mazda 6 2003, but it didnt work, It fits fine but no sound out of my stereo, I have heard it does work with mazda6 2006 because of the aux features it has, I seen you tube videos as well, sorry I couldnt be as much help

Worked like a charm with my E46/323ci. Using the steering wheel controls was great. Definitely the way to go if you dont have a iDevice with the lightning connector

I only use the up/down controls on my steering wheel to select music on my Iphone. So I only go forward or backward through the playlist that I selected using my Iphone. It odes show the songs, artist,etc.. I have used the controls on the radio to select various options but it is complicated and I would not do that if I was driving. I usually select a playlist on my Iphone, then start a song in that playlist. Then I select SAT and IPOD Bluetooth on my stereo either using the buttons on my stereo or the source button on my steering wheel. There are menus you can download off the internet that compliment the original user guide. The Isimple I use is in a 2009 LEXUS RX350. Bye the way, I have a new Toyota Camry that has built in Bluetooth. It doesn't do much more than the Isimple.
