iPhone 15 CarPlay Not Working - Fix
Many have had issues like me with their iPhone 15 not working with CarPlay. The solution is NOT in the cables or USB C to A adapters. My vehicle a 2017 Chevy Suburban only has USB A ports. After discussion with Apple Tech support and others on this forum I put together the missing pieces. My screen shots are attached.
The key to the solution is You need to delete all devices from the the CarPlay device management in your radio. This along with renaming your iPhone and hard rebooting it. You will likely need to go through the CarPlay device management delete process several times until all are deleted. I found as I deleted there were many older devices still in the device management that appeared . Next un-pair from Bluetooth in car and on device forget. Once all devices are cleared the radio looks at your device as the first one connected to CarPlay and starts with a brand new message.
- Delete and forget your phone from Bluetooth on phone and on radio.
- Re-name your phone in Settings >About>Name
- Hard reboot your phone volume up>volume down> press and hold power button until Apple logo reappears and release.
- Plug in your USB C cable or in my case UBS C w/ USB C to A adapter or any name brand cable that is USB C to USB A. I used the Apple USB C and adapter, Anker USB C to USB A and Amazon Basics USB C to USB- A. All worked so the cable is not the issue.
Once plugged in CarPlay should pop up with a new welcome message and follow menu directions.
Last pair your phone via Bluetooth.
