Reasons for no sound in the car when Bluetooth is connected: Car multimedia system volume is not turned on: If there is no sound when playing music via Bluetooth in the car, the first thing to check is whether the car multimedia system volume is turned on. If the volume is not turned on or is muted, there will naturally be no sound when playing music. Phone volume is not turned on: In this case, you need to increase the phone volume or ensure the phone is not in silent mode. Phone and car computer are incompatible: If the phone and car computer are incompatible, it may result in failure to connect to Bluetooth or display error codes after connection.
I've encountered this issue before. When there's no sound in the car after connecting Bluetooth, there are usually a few simple reasons. First, check if the volume settings on both your phone and car system are too low. Sometimes after Bluetooth connection, the audio output doesn't automatically switch to Bluetooth source - you may need to manually select Bluetooth as the playback source on the car's interface. Then check your phone's Bluetooth settings to see if the media audio option is enabled. Another common issue is incomplete device pairing - try disconnecting and reconnecting, or restart both your phone and car system. Occasionally, software conflicts or post-update Bluetooth compatibility issues may occur, so keeping your devices' software updated can prevent this. Don't fiddle with these settings while driving - operate only when safely parked. DIY troubleshooting can save you time and repair costs. If you've tried all solutions and still get no sound, there might be hardware failures like damaged Bluetooth modules or poor speaker wiring connections, in which case professional repair is needed. During regular maintenance, have them check your Bluetooth system to prevent sudden malfunctions.
