Why can't music play through Bluetooth connection in Buick Envision?
2 Answers
Reasons for no sound when connected to car Bluetooth: 1. Volume: The volume on the car navigation system or phone is not turned on. Solution: Go to phone settings - sound, find the media option, and turn up the media volume. The same applies to the car navigation system. 2. Pairing code: The music playback programming of some phones (such as iPhone) is different from the pairing code of certain car models, so only calls can be answered but not music. Solution: It is recommended to change the Bluetooth playback frequency band to use it normally. Bluetooth multimedia music is not turned on; Solution: Find the multimedia option on the screen and enter Bluetooth to play music. 3. Media audio: The media audio on the phone is not turned off, causing signal interference with the Bluetooth function. Solution: First, go to the phone's Bluetooth settings interface, where there are two options: phone audio and media audio. After connecting to the car Bluetooth, both options are turned on by default. We need to turn off the media audio and keep the phone audio, so that Bluetooth calls, car music playback (or radio), and phone navigation voice can work without interfering with each other.
I had a similar issue when driving the Envision before. The main reason might be poor Bluetooth pairing or incorrect settings. After connecting the phone to the car's system, you must select the 'Media Audio' option, as sometimes only 'Call Audio' is enabled by default, causing no sound for music. Additionally, check if your phone's Bluetooth settings allow media playback. The Buick Envision's system is quite smart but occasionally has bugs; restarting both the car's system and the phone can solve most issues. If there are many interference sources or weak signals, the music may also stop. I recommend ensuring a stable Bluetooth connection before each parking and regularly cleaning the car's interfaces to prevent dust from affecting performance. Paying attention to these details not only avoids awkward situations but also ensures a safe journey.
