on bikes equipped with the audio system,  when listening to music via a MP3 player/iPod/stick etc..  Is it possible to pause the song?

ooohh - that's a good question.


If I wasn't tucked up in bed, I'd be straight into the garage to check...


:eggs:

Not 100% sure, but guessing no.  Rotating the wonder-wheel is volume up/down and pressing in/out is next song/previous song.  I can't imagine what gesture would indicate pause/play.

What happens if you push the SRC button though - doesn't that have the effect of pausing the track?


Not at home, so can't check...

Not tried that one Richard,  I'm at work so can't try it till the weekend

I just tested it on my 2016 RT with music playing from a USB stick, I stand by my original guess that it's not possible.


Wonderwheel - Volume up/down and Track next/previous
On button - Mutes/Un-mutes the sound
SRC button - Changes between FM/Sat/Aux/USB
MODE button - Opens a menu that allows you to display Artist/Genre/Song/Playlist, etc..
MEM button - Does nothing

Shame really,  sometimes it would be handy to pause the song

but what happens when you put mode to (say) aux ten switch back to USB?  Was the track on the usb paused or not?

Not sure on that, I will test it and report back later.

The answer is yes, as it does when it's muted for GPS prompts and the phone.
