My Jensen ipod docking system wont charge my i touch

It will cost you less just to get a different one (Shilia) then to have it repaired,

Please check the iPod connector on the Sony. If you can wiggle it, it is probably a bad connection. These model Sony radios have the connector directly soldered on a PCB and it tends to get loose after a while due to connecting/disconnecting the iPod. If it is loose, the connector needs to be re-soldered back into place.

I have had the following circumstances when there was a bad connection:
- iPod will not be charged
- iPod can not play music through the Sony
- iPod will play music through the Sony, but an iPhone won't

There is a fix for this. Unfortunately, the some ipods will function properly with the exception of charging. You can buy an adapter to fix this. You can find them on ebay. Go to ebay and do a search for "Scosche charging dock adapter" The adapter plugs into your charging dock and then the ipod plugs into it. They usually come in black or white. If you get the same color as your docking unit you wont even see it once its installed. This works...I have one : )

i have bought a ipod nano and i want it to work in my car stereo it charges but does not play it does play my sons ipod touch so the cable is ok

If possible, please post the model number of your Jensen HD radio. The Jensen HD radio that I know about is only meant to support the iPod nano, iPod with video (5.5G), original iPod and iPod mini.

the apple ipod are very delicate and it seems that docks are very harsh on the internal workings IE: motherboard of the ipod. it not just the touch, it's all ipods.
My suggestion is to check the headphone jack and if you get sound, don;t play your ipod on the dock at all. Your dock has probably done some damage to the audio circuit on the board.
If you get sound through the headphone jack save your ipods life and just use it through the jack.
I have replaced numerous motherboards on ipods played on docks. they just don;t handle the charging and playing very well whether it's heat or just the wrong voltage I am not sure.
But my first question to a customer is have you played it on a dock.
I would stay away from the dock

This is because you are using different generations.

If the dock was only meant for 1st generation, then itwill only charge 1st generation. It's how they make their money.

i have somewhat of a similar problem with my ipod Touch and my JBL docking station alarm clock thingy. It may just be that the ipod is not compatible on some of the levels that the Igroove is. With my docking station, it wont charge my ipod touch itll only play music

Hi there,

Some speaker systems which are only compatible for charging the ipod nanos and classics do not work with the iPod Touch and the iPhone, the internals are slighly different from one another which will not allow that speaker system to charge your iTouch.

To play & Charge your touch, i suggest getting a speaker system that supports the iPod touch platform.

Hope this helps ?!
