Good evening everyone, I wonder if any of you will be able to help. I have already done some searching, but can’t find anything concrete on this topic.
I am having some problems connecting my iPhone to the MG4 to use Apple CarPlay. It currently seems to be totally hit and miss - sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t. Here are the details:
- Apple iPhone 13 mini
- Tried using 2 different genuine Apple Lightning cables, and 1 cheap cable, connected using the USB-A port.
- When plugging in the phone, the Apple CarPlay icon on the MG4 screen momentarily turns white, then greys out again.
- If I try to press the greyed-out button, a message, “Reconnect, retry after authorization” appears on the screen.
- The “Allow CarPlay While Locked” options is active in the iPhone‘s settings.
- Sometimes it works first time, and on other occasions it takes 5+ attempts of plugging in/unplugging the phone before it’ll work (very frustrating!)
- Phone always charges, even if it doesn’t connect to CarPlay.
Has anyone else experienced this issue? Which cables have you used? Has anybody managed to solve the problem?
Thanks very much.
