No sound when hooking up my iPhone 5 to my car

[speedracer5]

I have a 2009 Honda Accord LX with an auxiliary port. When I use a Griffin audio cable to hook up my iPhone 5, switch on AUX on my stereo, I get no sound. I tried to hook up my iPod touch (one notch below the latest generation iPod touch) and that works.

I asked the stereo technician at Best Buy and he said to talk to my Honda dealer. I talk to my Honda service tech, and he didn't know what to do about it and told me to arrange an appointment. I rather see if anyone knows how to troubleshoot this instead of me getting an expensive solution. Anyone?

Do you have it connected via Bluetooth as well?

Found the solution to my problem. I just replaced the cable with a thinner Belkin cable and it worked. I have the iPhone 5 in a Otterbox, which also made it harder for the cable to completely hook up into the headphone jack. So apparently the main problem was that the cable wasn't in all the way.
