Fix
1: Restart and CarPlay.
If you were previously able to use CarPlay
with your iPhone and it suddenly failed, it's likely that either your iPhone or
your vehicle system will fail. To clear this out, you can soft reset your
iPhone and restart your car's infotainment system. To soft reset an iPhone X,
simply follow these steps:
- Press and hold the Side / Power button
and either Volume buttons simultaneously for a few seconds.
-Release the buttons when the Slide to
Power Off command appears and then drag the power off slider to the right.
- After 30 seconds, press and hold the
Power / Side button again until the phone reboots.
- To restart your car's infotainment
system, refer to the standard steps outlined on the user manual of your
vehicle.
In case if wireless CarPlay, simply go to
Settings-> General-> CarPlay then attempt pairing in wireless mode. Menu
options may vary between infotainment systems.
Fix 2: Toggle Siri.
To make sure that the problem isn't
attributed to some minor glitches with Siri, turning Siri off and then back on
can help. Here's how it works:
- Tap Settings from the Home screen.->Select
Siri.->
Then tap the option that says, Allow Hey
Siri. Your iPhone will then ask you to set it by saying “Hey Siri” several
times until your voice is recognized.
If “Hey Siri” is already enabled on your
phone while having problems using CarPlay, simply turn it OFF and then back ON
again.
This will help to remove minor issue that
might have caused Siri app to fail or stop working.
Fix 3: Toggle Bluetooth
Among other key requisites to use CarPlay
with your iPhone X is an active Bluetooth connection. This means pairing your
iPhone X and car Bluetooth. To eliminate random issues with Bluetooth on both
the car and your phone, restart Bluetooth with these steps:
On
your iPhone, go to Settings-> Bluetooth menu, then toggle the Bluetooth
switch off and then back on again.
Alternatively, you can toggle Airplane Mode
on and off. It's another way of restarting wireless functions of the phone.
.
Retry pairing your iPhone and your car
afterwards and see if CarPlay is already working as intended.
Fix 4: Do the pairing again .
If above solution doesn't help , then try
to unpair your phone and car. This is often needed if the current Bluetooth
connection between the phone and the car gets corrupted.
To do this, go to your iPhone Settings->
Bluetooth menu. Make sure Bluetooth is enabled so you can see the list of
available Bluetooth devices. Find and select your car Bluetooth then tap on the
information I icon next to it. Then tap the option to Forget This Device.
Follow the rest of the onscreen prompts to confirm unpairing.
Also remove or unpair your iPhone from any
other Bluetooth devices so none of them will cause conflict or interfere with
the phone and car when using CarPlay.
After unpairing and removing all saved
Bluetooth devices from your iPhone X, restart the phone and the car system
then reattempt pairing.
Fix 5: Reset network settings on your
phone.
Network-related errors that might have
ruined the connection between the phone and CarPlay can also be cleared out by
performing network settings reset. This will erase your phone's current network
configurations along with network errors that caused CarPlay to fail. Here's
how it's done:
From
the Home screen, tap on Settings. -> Select General.->Tap on Reset.>Select
the option to Reset network settings.
Enter your device passcode.
Then tap the option to confirm network
settings reset.
When the reset is finished, your iphone
will restart automatically and then loads the default network options and
values. That said, you will need to re-enable Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connections
on the phone in order to use them again. Don't forget to pair your iPhone and
your car Bluetooth afterwards.
Hope these solution will help you to fix
iOS 13 Siri and carplay issues.
