Common Connection Issues and Solutions

1. Device Disconnects or Phone Fails to Reconnect

Scenario: While navigating in an unfamiliar city, the screen becomes unresponsive, navigation stops, and music ceases to play. Attempts to reconnect fail.

Cause: This issue is often due to cache conflicts between the Carpuride device and the phone or excessive Bluetooth connection records.

Solution:

Step 1：Clear Connection Records

On your phone： delete CarPlay or Android Auto connection records in Settings.
On the Carpuride device： delete the phone's Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connection records and reset the device to factory settings.

Step 2：Restart Devices

Restart both the phone and the Carpuride device to clear the cache.

Step 3：Reconnect Devices

Connect the Carpuride device and phone according to the manual to re-establish the connection and select the appropriate audio output mode.

2. Voice Commands Are Unresponsive

Scenario: While riding, you attempt to search for a gas station using voice commands. The device responds initially but fails to react to subsequent commands.

Cause: Unresponsive voice commands are often related to microphone connection issues or incorrect Bluetooth settings, particularly when multiple devices are connected.

Solution:

Step 1: Reconnect Devices:

Follow the steps in Issue 1 to reset and reconnect the device.

Step 2: Activate the Voice Assistant

iPlay/Auto Mode: Long press the music-sharing button on your Bluetooth headset to activate the assistant.
BT Trans Mode: Tap the microphone icon in the bottom-left corner of the CarPlay interface.

Step 3: Test Voice Commands

Speak directly into the Bluetooth headset’s microphone and ensure the device executes commands correctly.

Cause: Internal Bluetooth conflicts or incorrect audio output settings are the most likely causes.

Solution:

Step 1: Check Internal Bluetooth Connections

Open the Carpuride settings and inspect the Bluetooth pairing list. Look for conflicting connections such as Carp.BT Trans.

Step 2: Remove Unnecessary Connections

Clear all previous connection records on both the phone and the Carpuride device. Before deleting Carp.BT Trans, ensure it is in "Disconnect" status.

Step 3: Reset Audio Output Settings

Select the correct audio output mode on the main interface to avoid unnecessary conflicts.

Cause: Incorrect audio settings or improper microphone volume can lead to poor audio quality.

Solution:

Step 1: Check Audio Output Mode

Confirm the audio output mode in the Audio Output section of the Carpuride device, as this issue often occurs in BT Trans Mode.

Step 2: Adjust Microphone Volume in BT Trans Mode

If the other party cannot hear you: During the call, press the power button on your Bluetooth headset to adjust the microphone volume to a level between 7 and 15. Increase volume if necessary.
