Head unit says NO TAPE when I use a cassette tape adapter.

Head unit says NO TAPE when I use a cassette tape adapter.

When I insert a cassette tape adapter to use with my phone, the head unit displays NO TAPE. I bought a new cassette adapter and said the same thing. Is there a way to fix it?

ANSWERS:

"This is a problem with a lot of tape players that try to be too high tech. Some cassette players will try to find the actual plastic tape in the adapter, or use some other detection method to make sure a tape has been inserted properly so that it will not accidentally damage itself or your cassette. This leads to false negatives. The GM cassette players such as those in Chevy's from the 90s do this as well.

My suggestion is find a different adapter. Use Amazon or similar reviews to gauge the compatibility of the adapter.
