Q: (Sony) Car Stereo Controls after iOS 10 Update
I'm really disappointed that since updating to iOS 10 on my iPhone 6 I can no longer skip music tracks using the buttons on my Sony car stereo when my phone is connected. The forward skip button does nothing and the back skip will only go to the beginning of the track playing and no further. It's very inconvenient (if not downright dangerous) to have to fiddle about with the phone while I'm driving to skip tracks. The car stereo controls still work fine with my iPod.
Is anyone else experiencing this? Anyone have a solution?
iPhone 6, iOS 10

I found a reset button on my car stereo and pressed it and now the controls are working again. Not sure what caused the problem in the first place. In all the years I've had my car stereo and plugged devices into the USB port on the front I've never had to reset. Incidentally I also contacted Sony to ask them about it - they didn't suggest a reset. Anyway... job done, happy now
