The AUX port of Accent 14 is failing to detect the iPhone.

I have inspected the fuses, experimented with various cables, and ultimately substituted the entire AUX SUB port. Nevertheless, nothing. The iPhone charges when connected via USB, yet the input fails to recognise my device.

Ensure that the cable in use possesses data transmission capabilities.
MFCI or a similar certification is required, and it ought to function properly.
The majority of inexpensive aftermarket cables lack that functionality.
I trust this will be beneficial.

The charging component can function with a cable devoid of data lines, thus it is prudent to eliminate the cable as a potential issue initially.

I appreciate the guidance! I have seldom utilised "Apple certified" USB cables. Historically, I have encountered no issues with inexpensive or generic USB cables. The AUX port abruptly ceased to acknowledge any smartphone as a media source. Frankly, I am somewhat inclined to purchase a Bluetooth adapter for AUX and bypass this entire situation.

Corrosion may also be present in the USB port. If you possess a product similar to Deoxit, consider utilising it.

Minor update: I examined the AUX port using a USB flash drive loaded with MP3 files to eliminate the possibility of a defective USB socket. The USB flash drive connected seamlessly.
Additionally, I successfully acquired the USB-Bluetooth adapter. It also established a connection without any issues.
Consequently, I will indeed need to purchase an Apple-certified USB cable.

Provided the cable possesses Apple certification, you are in the clear.
It need not originate from Apple, yet it may still be a certified aftermarket cable.

I refrain from purchasing Apple products due to their exorbitant prices relative to their value, and I have never encountered issues with aftermarket certified cables.

Please inform us if that genuinely resolves your port problem, and we hope it is effective. 🤞👍
