AUX not recognized

i just installed an AUX cable into the back of my stock radio (05 MCS). when i it MODE on the radio, AUX never shows up. i've tested the ipod and aux cable and they work. i've reseated the harness into the back of the radio 5 times already...any ideas?

and the HU has a Dec04 build date...i really think it's either a bad radio or bad cable

This maybe worth a shot... try connecting the audio device first before switching on the radio/car.

power to the radio comes from the harness, so it's impossible to turn on the radio before plugging in the AUX cable.

As this is the 2nd gen forums and your car is a 05 or 1st gen car you may get better answers over in the first gen section.
