Auxillary jack issues

I think my aux jack might not be working properly and wanted to see if anyone else has the same thing going on.

Whenever I plug my ipod in, I only get one channel (sound on the driver's side of the car). I've tried 2 different cables, double and triple checking that they were plugged in fully, even wiggling the hell out of them. My stereo works properly for radio and cd, and my ipod works properly with headphones.

Any ideas, or should I just take it for service?

I had the exact same problem. Initially the dealer replaced the jack but the problem remained. Ultimately they discovered one of the wires leading to the jack had become pinched and broken somewhere along it's route. Works fine after the wiring was replaced.

just wanted to follow up on this.

dealership has my car, and turns out it was a pinched wire. they pulled it from where it was stuck and said it works fine, but they're also in the process of ordering in a new wiring harness for that section. they will replace it all when it comes in.

a funny aside, the guy was telling me on the phone "..and we'll go ahead and wash your car for you and..." and i almost jumped through the phone with "DONT WASH MY CAR!" hahahha. he kind of hesitated, and then said "ok sir" hahaha.

im pretty sure i startled him with that.
