Hello MadPaddler,


It sounds like after you restored the device you can no longer use it to connect to the bluetooth in your vehicle. I would recommend that you try the troubleshooting in the article named:

iOS: How to troubleshoot Bluetooth connections

http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4562

  1. Check that you are in range of the Bluetooth device with which you are trying to pair your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. Most Bluetooth devices have a range of approximately 30 feet.
  2. On your iOS device, tap Settings > Bluetooth and find your device in the list. If your device says Not Connected, tap the name of your device to attempt to connect it.
  3. Tap Settings > Bluetooth and turn Bluetooth off and then on again.
  4. Make sure that your Bluetooth accessory is turned on and fully charged or connected to power.
  5. Restart your iOS device.
  6. Tap Settings > Bluetooth and locate the Bluetooth accessory you are currently connected to or attempting to connect to. Then tap User uploaded file and Forget this Device. Try to pair your Bluetooth accessory again.

    Note: You may need to re-enter your Bluetooth accessory PIN if your accessory requires one. Some common PINs are 0000, 1111, and 1234.

  7. Restart your Bluetooth accessory by turning it off and then on again1.
  8. Update your device to the latest version of software. See how to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
  9. If your Bluetooth accessory has upgradeable firmware, check to see that you have the latest version1, 2.
