Seek / Fast Forward Songs / Tracks from Steering Wheel
Is there any way to seek / fast forward (not skip / jump) songs / tracks from the steering wheel!?

The rotary button on the right side of the steering wheel is the only option, depending on the music source, with my iPod I get to see the songs per artist or album rather than next song, if song playing is the Killers in my current play list, by using the rotary button I get to see the other Killers songs rather than the next one on the playlist I am playing.

I'd be happy if I could advance or go back a song when my iPhone is plugged in from the steering wheel. The only way I can change songs is using the arrow buttons on the far side of the radio. The steering wheel buttons only allow volume control and answering/hanging the phone when it's plugged in.
Oh yeah, I almost forgot, the thumb wheel only allows me to start the current playing song again.

Thanks for your replies(!), but to clarify:
The rotary dial / button marked with a YELLOW arrow allows you to skip / jump between songs / tracks, but I would like to seek / fast forward, which is what happens when you hold down the button marked with a RED arrow. If not possible, it's absurd, as the < > buttons are so far from the steering wheel! The rotary dial / button marked with a GREEN arrow should be able to be programmed to seek / fast forward! It's pretty much useless to me otherwise! Pleaes advise. Last edited by dbs600; 02-03-2013 at 12:13 PM.. |

What car is that a picture of? The center console is significantly different than mine... Not to mention I've never seen the wood-trim steering wheel like that.

Can you press and hold the rotary button on the steering wheel, similar to how you press and hold the button on the dash ?

All it does is jump forward or backward to the next song / track / station, etc. Can you please be more specific? You know there's a difference between seek / fast forward / rewind and skip / jump, right? Thanks! Last edited by dbs600; 02-04-2013 at 04:24 PM.. |
