iPod no longer connecting to the car

My iPod touch has stopped connecting to the car. It says it does not support this accessory, the car says no audio files. It has been fine for months. I have reset and restarted the iPod. I've tried my iPad with the car and that's still fine so it must be the iPod rather than the car. I started it playing an audio book this morning it it wasn't in the right place in the chapter so I unplugged it to alter the chapter position, when I reconnected it, it just wouldn't do anything. Any help would be gratefully received. Thank you.

iPod touch (4th generation)

Try:

- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost

Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at

least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. done

- Reset all settings

Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.

All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.

- Restore from backup. See:

iOS: How to back up

- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Hi, thanks for your reply. I tried that but it still didn't work. I wondered if I might have changed a setting because I unplugged it while it was playing (which I had done before without effect) I have no idea what else I can try.
