Adding iPhone back after saying “No”

When you have a passenger that plugs into the USB and your prompted “Do you Want to connect device for CarPlay?” And select no, how do you rediscover this device at a later time. It seems as if initial No Is a long term decision.

Hi Guza,


If we understand correctly, you're trying to connect an iPhone to CarPlay using the USB cable, and the iPhone was previously denied access to the vehicle. The good news is that this is a setting that can be changed. When you have a chance, try opening the Settings app on the affected iPhone, and then tap on General > CarPlay > Forget This Car. When you reconnect the iPhone to the vehicle, you should be prompted to set up CarPlay again. The resource below has more details.
