1 Answers
Reasons for unsuccessful external CarPlay connection: Damaged phone data cable: Check if the phone data cable has any damage or breakage, and whether there is any foreign matter attached to the metal contact terminals on the USB plug and phone plug or if the surface is oxidized. Internal damage to the USB female port of the external USB HUB of the car stereo: Inspect the USB female port of the external USB HUB of the car stereo for any internal damage and whether the contact metal pieces can maintain good contact with the USB male plug. Check for loose connections between the car stereo and the external USB HUB: Examine the connections between the car stereo and the external USB HUB for any looseness. To avoid poor internal contact caused by prolonged oxidation, you can repeatedly unplug and replug the two connectors of the cable.
