CarPlay Gone 2022 Unconnect 5

[Darynt73]

This evening mid song, my stereo dropped from CarPlay to Bluetooth & now the CarPlay and Android Auto enable option in settings is gone. CarPlay in my phone doesn’t see “My Car” (the Ram Uconnect) even though it sees & works fine in my wife’s cars CarPlay. Any advice or experience with this. This is in a 2 week old 2022 Ram 2500.

I had the same problem. I tried a soft reset on the stereo/ Uconnect and phone. Then I deleted the Uconnect and paired the phone again.
Very frustrating!!! now it seems to work again.
I think we have some glitches that ram needs to workout. Let me know what you figure out.

My android auto stops playing songs after about 5 minutes, then won't recognize my device.. 10 minutes later starts randomly playing and then stops.

It also randomly freezes and won't display information.

I've accepted that its garbage and don't use it sadly.

Yeah, this Uconnect is glitchy as hell. When it’s working correctly it’s awesome. Just do a soft reset and everything e ack on line. Feels like an old Windows OS.

How do you do a soft reset?

 

[Darynt73]

Well you’re all right it’s glitchy, went out this morning started the truck and everything connected like normal, like nothing ever happened. Frustrating!

Thanks for the help!

Soft reset - Hold the power button on the radio dial for about 10-15 seconds until unit powers downs and restarts

I’ve had my Uconnect5 12” for one week and experienced this multiple times with wireless CarPlay. Three states I’ve observed:

1. Never connects. Continuous, circular busy indicator in device manager. This persists across multiple starts of the truck and iPhone power cycles. Deleting device in device manager and iPhone Bluetooth settings and then adding device has worked so far. Have had to reset Uconnect system before CarPlay started. Gave up once after all this to have it connect immediately the next morning.

2. Takes a long time to connect. Intermittent, circular busy indicator. Indicator present while trying to correct then goes away briefly showing phone not connected. Connection cycle starts again automatically. Eventually connects if I leave it alone.

3. Connects immediately. This happens less than half the time.

There is a reset category under the settings app. Can also reset radio there. I’ll have to try resetting first, next time this happens.

It is fairly common for multimedia devices to commit suicide if you are listening to Justin Beaver.

If you were listening to normal music, however, this is abnormal and I hope you get it resolved.

Hey don’t kick the BEEBS. He must be having money troubles as he came home to flog the Timbits at the Timmy-Hortons Eh! (donut holes at coffee shop in American). Ah the problems of millionaires.

Hahaha, The Beaver doesn't play in my truck, unless my daughter hijacks the Carplay

Uconnect notified me it had updated early last week. I haven’t had a connection failure since although I do have to wait a few minutes occasionally. Most of the time it connects immediately!
