1. Turn on Both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth

For wireless CarPlay to work, both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth must be enabled on your iPhone. Make sure both are toggled ON in Settings before attempting to connect.


2. Try Wired CarPlay Instead

If wireless CarPlay is unstable, try using a Lightning cable. This often stabilizes the connection or helps reset wireless pairing.
