Aiwa 955 5 pin DIN probs

Hey yall

Just got a 955 in reasonable shape, all seems to be ok, tape is running fast, but ok with MP3 - SD cassette so ok.

But.

The line in is a 5 pin DIN, and when I play from my ipod the sound is dreadful. All squelchy and mashed up.

Tape and Radio are 100%, any ideas ????

Cheers dears

Are you using a home made DIN adapter or is it one off the 'Bay?

Its an Amazon bought one.

Spray some contact cleaner in the plug holes and plug and unplug the DIN jack a few times.
I had a similar issue on my VZ2500 .
If this does not help, try to not plug it in completely and then push it to left/right/up/down a little. That already happened to me before - the DIN jack are just not the crown of the evolution

Where can I find a 5 pin din to 3.5mm?
