I have tried everything to connect my iPhone 13 promax to CarPlay without success. The dealer ship borrowed a 13 premax and was able to instantly connect it. Could there be something wrong with my phone?

My iPhone 13 pro max won't connect to CarPlay. An iPhone 13 pro max borrowed at the car dealership connected instantly. Do I have a bad phone?

Hello,

Start here:

If you need help with CarPlay - Apple Support

Also try:

If your iPhone isn't detected by CarPlay, make sure that CarPlay isn't restricted. Go to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions, tap Allowed Apps and make sure that CarPlay is enabled. Go to Settings > General > CarPlay, tap your car, then tap Forget This Car. Then set up CarPlay again.

Good luck.
