Try plugging in whatever you have on your AUX port to some sort of power supply. my iPod wont work unless I play with while charging it.

I know you said you checked the cable, but did you try another one? If your existing one fits loose in the jack, or isn't inserted correctly, it won't press the feeler that enables the "aux" mode to be selected from the radio.

This may not be the case but it's worth checking anyway, in the fuse box under the passenger side dash check fuse #6. It's 10 amps and the only thing the manual labels it as is "audio".

There are a few other fuses for audio but all of the other ones are sharing the circuit with things like air conditioning and the clock so I doubt it is any of those.

Did you ever figure a solution, was it a blown fuse or something?

So my aux button stopped working and thought it was maybe fuse and circuit related but fortunately my Mode button on steering wheel still works to switch to Aux. Thank God for redundancy!
