Help Bluetooth Issue

[pgus13]

All of a sudden my bluetooth isn't connecting to my car's bluetooth. Before today it connected without me doing anything and today I needed to manually connect it.

Is there something I accidentally tapped to disable this?

Thanks!

I'm not sure what you are driving but if I give a voice command "PHONE" in my Ford F150 and it indicates there is no phone connected, it searches for a Bluetooth connection to my smart phone and usually will connect. If it does not, I have had go through the pairing process again. If that doesn't work you may need to do a factory re-set on the vehicle system and then pair the phone with the vehicle Bluetooth systems as you did the very first time.

Probably not. I had much the same situation with my Honda CR-V. Paired at first and worked great. But after leaving the card and coming back, had to re-pair again. Most times, would NOT pair. Had to remove profile from the car and start over.

Got to be so bad, I gave up on using BT with the car. Then, I got the iBolt Car Dock, and installed Car Home Ultra. That combination now pairs automatically, both car audio and multimedia audio, every time.

Thanks!! I will delete and try "re-pairing" it!! Never had a problem with my old phone connecting. Just don't feel I should have to make them connect manually!

Oh, and another thing I noticed is before this issue, my car stereo showed just the number on the display. Now, it shows the name.....
