iPhone 4 and blue tooth

Post by scooby1doo1 » Wed Mar 21, 2012 5:02 pm

I was bored waiting for the wife, so just started playing with the BT so far I have found the car and the code.
The problem is, is then says connected, but a few seconds later says on the iPhone not connected.

Any body give any info.

Cheers

Did the system go through the pairing process on the navigation screen?

Not sure about doing it through intravee but may be worth pairing through the OE system and it may then just connect through intravee each time.

It's something like press and hold the button in the armrest for 3 seconds then whilst it's still pressed turn key to ignition 1 and continue to hold for another 3 seconds then when you release the screen should show as pairing and you then put the code into the phone. Once paired turn ignition off and should be sorted.

Try deleting all text messages from our phone, with some versions of the Bluetooth ULF they can cause this type of behaviour.
