Help needed - XCarLink cable mod
First post here so bear with me...
I just installed my XCarLink adapter and I have run into a bit of a snag. I ordered the refurbished unit from RPS and it only comes with the iPod cable (reading comprehension fail on my part), but I don't have an iPod. I know that the iPod cable carries a standard analog audio signal as well as 5V power. What I would like to do is dissect the cable I have and convert the iPod connector to USB + 3.5mm stereo audio so I can connect those to my Android phone. Does anybody here know which wires are which in the XCarLink iPod cable?
EDIT: I should have searched a little deeper. Audio problem solved: https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...36#post4184936
Can anybody point me in the right direction for USB power off of the same cable?
