Problem solved: Reboot Honda Infotainment system. NOTE: this will not loose any of your Car settings (key id's, seat memory positions, etc.).
- Press and hold the power button on the Infotainment panel for 10 seconds.
- Screen will display, "Do you wan to Reboot?" Touch "YES"
- Screen goes black, then in 10-30 seconds system comes back on line.
- Connected my phone and all was well, again.
If that had not worked, Honda suggested doing a a Factory System Reset, but since this erases all of your personal settings, you need to make a list of them before doing the following: on the Infotainment screen__ Home>Settings>scroll down to Factory System Reset. If after doing this and redoing your personal settings, CarPlay still not loading, you would need to go to the dealer for a diagnostic check. But, since their first suggestion worked, I did not have to go this route.
I hope this helps any other Honda owners that experience CarPlay Not Loading problems.
