Why is CarPlay not functioning on my 2024 Can-Am Spyder?

Just tried my ACP today. It’s interesting that the headset must be paired to the bike. The phone has to be plugged in to the bike to make BRP connect active, thus activating the ACP mirroring your phone. Made phone calls. Sent text through Siri. Used Siri to navigate to addresses. Listened to music. So far I haven’t tried connecting to fellow riders on the Cardo Packtalk Edge. That will be the test. If someone has tried the bike to bike communication please let us know. The janks.

Uh...I'm a bit confused by your "bike to bike communication" question.

Pairing your headset to the bike allows ACP on your bike to send audio information to the paired headset.

Your Cardo Packtalk Edge appears to support Mesh communications, which would allow you to communicate with other Mesh users, but that has nothing to do with your Spyder or ACP.

Note. My dealer sent me an email today. They have released Apple carplay finally. Here is the catch. I went for service Monday and they updated dashboard software which broke wifi connectivity so I cant do over the air update. Going to dealer in the morning for then to try updating directly. Will keep you posted this was the announcement

NOW AVAILABLE: APPLE CARPLAY FOR CAN-AM SPYDER

Dear BRP Dealer,

We are happy to announce that Apple CarPlay for MY24 Can-Am Spyder is now available for download.

HOW TO INSTALL

There are two ways that the customer can install Apple CarPlay on their vehicle:

The customer can visit your dealership and have it installed using BUDS2. The bulletin (#2024-4) and files associated with Apple CarPlay are available in the Knowledge Center on BOSSWeb.

OR

The customer can update the software of their vehicle from their home via Wi-Fi. They can follow the steps detailed on the Can-Am website

I downloaded and installed the latest BRP update to my 24 R3 Spyder last week. Last night was the first chance I had to try out ACP. It works very well for maps and voice directions into my Sena Impulse helmet, but attempting to use the phone was impossible. SIRI would not respond and after manually trying to dial a saved number from my phone to another person, I could not hear them or they could not hear me and they generally initiated the hang up. When I looked at my bluetooth connection and noticed my helmet was not connected to my iPhone 15Pro Max. I attempted to connect the two. Attempting a call after that I noticed the other persons voice was extremely slow and garbled. When I got home I disconnected my Sena helmet from the BRP app and my phone worked perfectly to my helmet; however, ACP was not selectable and a pop-up said no helmet detected. It appears to me there is a problem with ACP making phone calls.

I’m curious to know. How is your call quality and message playback quality? My call recipients sound really slow like playing back a tape at half speed. Same with voice iMessage playback. Everything else works great. Just can’t make or receive calls and messages.

I haven't tried to make or receive any phone calls while riding, so I can't answer your question about call quality.

I also use my iPhone and Apple Carplay for navigation in a 2023 Honda Ridgeline, and don't make or receive phone calls while driving it either.

To be honest, I don't make a lot of calls at all. Sorry.

Read a couple posts from email notification and just posting general comments

Yeah make sure you connect your phone to USB cable, wish they added a port on handlebar for carplay. Careful leaving phone in the glovebox connected. Generates a lot of heat and your phone will generate over temp warnings, not good for it. I exclusively have my phone mounted to handle bars and run a short cable to phone from glovebox. And I added a tether for added security. I personally prefer the quadlock mount with the vibration dampener added.l and it is the best I have personally used

And yeah. In a garage (like my underground) no cell or GPS coverage which carplay requires as well, so I expect it not to work until I leave garage

Well good to hear it’s working for you. Mine works for navigation and turn by turn directions but sending and receiving phone calls are a problem. There is a delay on the transmission of my voice and a delay at my end too. I’m using Cardo Packtack Edge paired to gauge as “bike pairing” and phone plugged into the bike. Phone is not paired to the gauge. So I’m wondering if anyone else has the phone call issue?

I purchased my 2024 Spyder Sea to Sky and I expected to have CarPlay. There are no updates available. Is BRP trying to deceive consumers.

No go. I had mine in at the dealer yesterday.

Hi Zoomer, on your touch screen dashboard (Bluetooth) does your Packtalk Edge display as "Scala Rider QGA" or does it display as per your iPhone name? I can't get it to connect properly.

I wonder if we can be a beta user?

Any new word on the status of acp and out 2024 spyders

I'm a member of that Facebook group, and someone said they thought it was taking so long because CAN-AM wasn't actually making the effort. Nothing was posted that actually proved that.
