    Does the car audio system have a USB port?  If it does, check the user manual for the car audio system to see a list of supported devices.  If iPod classic is supported, you can connect it to the USB port.

    HI

    thanks for reply.

    YEs there are 2 USB ports and 1 HDMI.

    But I tried using multiple cables but as there is no Aux input the IPOD is not playing.

    yYes IPod classic is supported by CRV but the process is not listed in the manual.

    If there's a USB port (and your iPod model is supported), you don't need an auxiliary audio input port.  By connecting to the USB port, the car audio system is using the iPod as a storage device with song files.  The car audio system accesses the iPod's storage, and does the song playing.  The iPod is not doing the song playing.

     

    Perhaps there's a setting in the car audio system interface to select the device connected to the USB port as the "source."
