Installed a new PEMP model PP- 9213. Everything works except for no audio while trying to use Apple CarPlay. The display and functions while using CarPlay work fine. I have gone through all the troubleshooting tips, but still cannot get audio to play. As I navigate through the OEM settings, I get to the selection of choosing the Auxilary Front mode. Then, I try to turn the volume up, but cannot from neither the main volume knob on the original deck unit or the on screen cursor. I can click on the volume slider on the display, and the display turns red (I believe indicting the volume is muted), but I cannot slide the volume bar up at all. I have tried plugging in the PEMP supplied AUX cable from the iOS cable harness to the AUX IN jack in the armrest area. I’ve also tried a cable supplied by me that goes from the armrest AUC IN jack to the USB port just adjacent to the AUX IN port. Still no audio. There are no fiber optic cables associated with this vehicles electronics system, as far as I know. Plus, I’m getting good audio with the radio, cd player, satellite radio modes. I’ve checked and unplugged and replugged all the cables and harnesses between the main deck unit and the PEMP display screen. The settings on the PEMP system are:

The struggle is trying to turn the volume slider up in the AUX IN mode while in the OEM settings. Any assistance on this issue would be greatly appreciated.
