This could be the amp board or the power suplly board, the power board can cause buzzing before the red light flash failure, just contact b and w service or the place of purchase and they should arrange repair.

Iphone does not work with zeppelin

try the aux feed at the back - if this works then it's probably the docking arm! (check to make sure in good order!),
has the unit been ugraded?(some ipods need upgraded software!)
have you tried another ipod? (as the pin interface on yours could be faulty!)

are there any flashing lights, does the ipod charge in situ, if it does not, then look at the docking arm.

sorry cannot be more specific but have little to work on.

When i dock my iphone to the Zeppelin (B&W), the red light is blinking and I cannot listen to music. The Zeppelin worked in the past, now not any more

the phpone gets its supply via the docking arm, the power supply board sounds like the problem b and w are aware of, contact your place of purchase or b and w service and they should repair this as the power supply boards are being upgraded because of this issue.

When I connect my ipod touch to my zeppelin there is a loud electrical interference coming from the zeppelin. It is less pronounced with an iphone and not there at all with an ipod touch. I have tried...

first try to upgrade the unit, if still the same then check if the aux is ok, if aux is ok, then it points at the docking arm, if the aux is not ok, then it relayes to either the power supply of the main interface board, they would check the power supply at b and w as this is a known problem, then following that they should check to see if anything else is wrong. contact your point of sale or b and w service.

When i played a video from my ipod while it is dock on the zeppelin, the video is stuck but i can still hear the sound coming form the zeppelin. why is this happening?? please and thank you =)

it is either your ipod video output, or the video output connection on the back. i would try a different pod, if that fails as well then send it back for repair.

I have used my Zeppelin with my iphone3s and ipod touch without any problem for more than a year. Lately I have been receiving a continously flashing red light when I plug my Ipod Touch and dont receive...

don't be mislead, the red flashing light is the power supply and you need to send it back for repair and have the modified board fitted. once this is resolved they should check for any other failures, but until this is changed, things will never improve.

My zeppelin is flashing red light! can't play anything! help!

You will need to check with another IPOD, if the condition still exists then it is an electrical fault with the Zeppelin itself and will need to be repaired. Contact
