Troubleshooting Guide

Step 1: Confirm MP3 Decoding Support
Check your vehicle manual to confirm the AUX-IN port supports reading and decoding MP3 files from a USB drive. If the port is passive (analog-only), this adapter will not work.

Step 2: Use a Compatible USB Drive
Only USB 2.0 flash drives are supported, with a recommended capacity of 8GB or less. USB 3.0 and external hard drives are not compatible.

Step 3: Ensure Correct File Format
Only .MP3 files are supported. WMA, WAV, FLAC, AAC, and other formats will not work. Do not include folders, videos, or other file types on the drive.

Step 4: Prepare the Drive Properly
Format your USB drive as FAT32. Place 5–10 MP3 files directly in the root directory without subfolders for testing.

Final Note: If all conditions are met and the adapter still doesn't work, your car's audio system is not compatible. This is a vehicle limitation, not a product defect.
