It does this by routing your connection through the car&rsquo;s infotainment system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, while you are driving, you can enjoy the benefits of iOS connectivity, but sometimes the system doesn&rsquo;t want to connect or it fails to work as planned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a variety of reasons for Apple CarPlay not working or even just stopping working. This can be caused by a recent iOS update or integration issues with applications. Sometimes there are incompatibility issues or your iPhone may not be detected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting.jpg\" alt=\"CarPlay setting up on phone in car\" class=\"wp-image-2581\" srcset=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting.jpg 640w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-335x224.jpg 335w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-347x232.jpg 347w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"eager\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%20640%20427'%3E%3Crect%20width='640'%20height='427'%20style='fill:%23e3e3e3'\/%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" alt=\"CarPlay setting up on phone in car\" class=\"wp-image-2581 eager-load\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-1\" data-src=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting.jpg.webp\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting.jpg.webp 640w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-300x200.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-335x224.jpg.webp 335w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-347x232.jpg.webp 347w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-520x347.jpg.webp 520w\" data-svg=\"1\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The most common problem is that CarPlay is not enabled on your iPhone.

You can access maps and directions as well as all your music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It does this effortlessly and hands-free. But sometimes, the system refuses to connect or work as designed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Toyota CarPlay not showing up can often be attributed to a faulty or incompatible USB cable. Using an Apple-certified USB cable to connect your iPhone to the Toyota&rsquo;s USB port usually solves this problem, as these cables ensure proper connectivity and compatibility with CarPlay.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another reason could be related to the settings on your iPhone. Sometimes, CarPlay needs to be enabled in your iPhone&rsquo;s settings. Go to Settings &gt; General &gt; CarPlay, and ensure your Toyota is listed and allowed. Also, check if any restrictions are set for CarPlay in the Screen Time settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Software incompatibility is another common issue. Ensure that both your iPhone&rsquo;s iOS and your Toyota&rsquo;s infotainment system are updated to the latest versions. Outdated software can lead to compatibility issues with CarPlay. Updating to the latest software can often resolve these issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your iPhone is locked, then CarPlay will not work if it is not activated on the available connections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When your Apple iPhone screen enters timeout mode, &nbsp;it may disable the CarPlay connection if you have forgotten to change the settings. To fix the problem, go to the settings menu on your iPhone and select the General settings tab.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Select CarPlay from the available options. Find your car&rsquo;s connection in the list of available connections and select it. You should then activate the option under &ldquo;Allow CarPlay While Locked&rdquo;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Toyota CarPlay No Sound (How to Fix)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-5.jpg\" alt=\"Interior touchscreen console of car\" class=\"wp-image-2573\" srcset=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-5.jpg 640w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-5-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-5-335x224.jpg 335w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-5-347x232.jpg 347w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-5-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-5.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Interior touchscreen console of car\" class=\"wp-image-2573 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-5.jpg.webp 640w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-5-300x200.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-5-335x224.jpg.webp 335w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-5-347x232.jpg.webp 347w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-5-520x347.jpg.webp 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-5.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-5\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Toyota CarPlay app offers you the opportunity to sync your iTunes playlist to your infotainment center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With so much time spent commuting in traffic, being able to listen to your favorite music or podcasts is a real stress reliever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, when your CarPlay has no sound, it can be extremely irritating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To fix your Toyota CarPlay with no sound, you can adjust the volume on the infotainment center or via the remote control button on your steering wheel.

You should also make sure that the infotainment center is updated to the latest firmware.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Toyota Apple CarPlay Keeps Disconnecting (How to Fix)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-7.jpg\" alt=\"Interior touchscreen console of car\" class=\"wp-image-2575\" srcset=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-7.jpg 640w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-7-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-7-335x224.jpg 335w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-7-347x232.jpg 347w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-7-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-7.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Interior touchscreen console of car\" class=\"wp-image-2575 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-7.jpg.webp 640w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-7-300x200.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-7-335x224.jpg.webp 335w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-7-347x232.jpg.webp 347w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-7-520x347.jpg.webp 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-7.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-7\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It is common for people to complain that their Apple CarPlay keeps disconnecting from their Toyota infotainment center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While this fault can be irritating, it&rsquo;s usually easy to fix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A Toyota Apple CarPlay that keeps disconnecting can usually be traced to the cable connecting the iPhone to the infotainment center. To fix the problem, replace the cable or check the lightning port on your phone. These ports get dirty and can be filled with lint and other dirt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the port is cleaned, the connection will be restored. You may, however, have to reset your CarPlay connection to restore full functionality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your CarPlay disconnects from your Bluetooth connection, then it may have a pairing problem that is interfering with your device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this instance, go into your Toyota infotainment center settings and delete all other devices that may be paired with your system. This will avoid conflicts when the other devices are within range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After deleting all the devices, reconnect with your iPhone, making sure that Siri is activated as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Toyota Apple CarPlay Update (How to) &nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-8.jpg\" alt=\"Confused girl with hands up in air\" class=\"wp-image-2576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-8.jpg 640w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-8-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-8-335x224.jpg 335w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-8-347x232.jpg 347w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-8-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-8.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Confused girl with hands up in air\" class=\"wp-image-2576 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-8.jpg.webp 640w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-8-300x200.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-8-335x224.jpg.webp 335w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-8-347x232.jpg.webp 347w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-8-520x347.jpg.webp 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/KMA-Toyota-CarPlay-Not-Working-Troubleshooting-8.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-8\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Many of the problems you experience with your CarPlay connection to your iPhone can be traced back to using firmware that is out of date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the best solution to most of your connection problems, update your Toyota infotainment center to the latest firmware.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To update your infotainment center so that it will connect with Apple&rsquo;s CarPlay, connect to your infotainment center with a USB cable or Bluetooth. Navigate to the update option in your general menu and select the latest firmware update. After the system is updated, reconnect to your iPhone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your Toyota is not fitted with a touchscreen, you can retrofit one. The head unit is replaced with a new infotainment system. The retrofitted units normally cannot connect via Bluetooth.

Then check that your iPhone is connecting to your infotainment center either through Bluetooth or via the USB lightning port.

If you use a non-Apple cable, then it can cause an intermittent connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, check that the USB port is clean. Use a toothpick or plastic tool to remove any lint or dust that may be caught in the port.
