Question

Why does my iPod Classic keep connecting THEN disconnecting immediately?

Here's the deal, I bought my iPod Classic used, and is the 160GB version in "space gray".

I connect my iPod Classic, and immediately it disconnects itself right away(!!). I would have searched a question, but let's face it, all the other info is now out-dated. So please, help!
