iPhone 5 bluetooth wont pair

I tried your fix but it did not work with my Subaru's Bluetooth and an iPhone 5 running the latest software. Any other ideas? LTE, by the way, is located in Settings > General > Cellular.

Found the solution: had to first delete the Audio settings on the Subaru Forester's Bluetooth Set up. It was looking for my old iphone. Once that was done, it was able to connect to the iPhone 5.

Hi, im getting frustrated in my bluetooth and my iPhone 5 .i just had this iPhone for couple weeks and i just bought the flexsmart X2 and i can't make it work . In settings where will i find LTE? Hope u can help me . Thanks

I was having issues with both my iPad (iOS6) and iPhone5 (running iOS7 Beta), pairing with a brand new Sony microsystem. Until I had the 'Bluetooth' button on the Sony device for about 2 seconds. Immediatelly both iOS devices paired. See if your unit has a button like this and try.

Alpine CDE-103BT, iPhone5. Finds unit but fails to pair with the 0000 passcode. Shutting off LTE (Also turned of Cellular Data completely) and hard reset made no difference. Walked back inside and paired with a Jabra Pro 9470 headset with passcode 0000. Alpine has most recent BT Firmware and was paied with iPhone4 on IOS 6 previously. Made sure there are no phones currently setup in Alpine. Wife has an iPhone 5 as well, same problem there. Nothing on Alpine's site about the CDE-103BT. I bought from Crutchfield so I'll call the tech support there and see if they know anything.

Called Crutchfield and explained what was happening. They told me the manual says use " 0000 " as the passcode but told me to try " 1234 ". Did that and the iPhone paired with the Alpine CDE-103BT and call moved from phone to car speakers. Tech Support said to try 1234 whenever you see 0000 and it doesn't work. I'm fixed.

Had same problem, and turning off LTE didn't help pair my iPhone 5s to Clarion CZ702. But I waded through the Chinese-English manual (downloaded from web) and got new phone paired. I read that the radio can only be paired with three phones. So I pressed DISplay button for a couple seconds and entered the radio menu. I turned dial to the Delete menu and found a list of already paired phones. My old phone had exactly the same name as the new one, so I deleted my old phone. After that, the radio paired perfectly with iPhone. I am not sure if the problem was that there were already three instruments registered (including one I didn't recognize) or if the problem was that the old phone and new phone had same name. Either way, deleting the old phone fixed it.

Worked for me! Would not pair since IOS update to 7.0.x

Tried everything... Nothing worked until this!

Thank you... Now to figure out why it won't connect with LTE turned on....

What model year is your Subaru? My iPhone 4 would automatically pair with my 2011 Subaru impreza but my iPhone 5 will not. I've turned off LTE and deleted my old phone from the car's Bluetooth memory. It will pair, but I have to manually pair it every time I get in the car (and even then it takes a long time to pair or sometimes tells me it can't).

Thanks and hope you can help!

I have a 2011 Forester and just purchased an i phone 5.
Same Blue Tooth issues as above - After the inital set up it wouoldn't autmatacally pair with the car on restart.

LTE on or off made no difference.

I took it to our local Subaru dealer who set it up using the voice commands instead of the knobs on the stereo.

Now it automatically pairs up

Makes no sense that this should work, but it does.

If you have the patience to work the voice commands you'll be fine.

This worked great for me: turned off LTE, tried pairing, this time the passcode worked. Once initial pairing was done, I could turn LTE back on and connect and disconnect from the device just fine. Only the pairing was affected by LTE. I would have never guessed that solution in a million years...

Excellent fix! When I initially paired my Iphone5 to a Pioneer DEH-X6600BT stereo during installation it worked well but after two weeks of daily use I got an Error 10 message. The stereo would no longer stream music via bluetooth but the phone would work. Turning off the LTE restored the music streaming. Note: To restore the connection I cleared the Bluetooth memory on the phone and the stereo. I then restarted my IPhone, turned off the LTE and paired w the stereo. Problem fixed!

I could not pair my iPhone 5S to my 2011 BMW. I tried many of the suggestions above, but it was a combination of several of them that finally worked.

I turned off LTE (settings/cellular).

I paired my phone to the car.

I entered the passkey 0000 on the car.

I entered the PIN 0000 on the phone. It paired.

I then turned LTE back on.
