Apple CarPlay disappeared!
« on: 04 November 2017, 22:23 »
So put my car in for servicing last week and since then car play has stopped working. Most annoying as I rely on that rather than the inbuilt sat nav.

Anyone know if there is an easy work round rather than having to go back into the dealers?

Press and hold the power button to reset the unit. Or perform a factory reset in the settings menu of maybe the media system?

This happened to me before. Go into the car play / android auto settings on the radio and remove all known paired devices. Then when you connect again it should prompt you like it’s the first time you’ve connected.
