    Hello i just purchased my first prius and cant get the AUX to work. It worked for one song but when I went to change the song it stopped working and now the button wont even put it in AUX mode. The prius is used. Do you think it blew a fuse or am I just not doing something right. Thanks

    That's a puzzler. Have you tried to use the steering wheel "mode" button as well as the center dash disc-aux button to toggle through the modes? There shouldn't be any fuses in the aux input.

    If you hold it just the right stop it comes back on works but when you stop holding it losses connection. The port has to lose, has anybody replaced one and know what it cost?

    Try a different cable. If the cable is not plugged in correctly, or broken the system doesn’t see it.

    Don’t know what to tell you. The last time that happened to me it was the cable not being plugged in all the way. Your using a stereo cable and not a phone cable with the extra microphone connection?
