Usb charge points stopped working

Post by mitch_g »

I noticed this morning that my apple car play would not work although i had my phone plugged in. This was working last night when i was using it.

Has anyone else had thus problem? Is it a fuse that has gone if so what fuse?

I checked the manual and can only see the cigarette 12v socket fuse om the diagram.

Have you tried both USB sockets in the car? Also check that the cable connection socket on the phone doesn’t need cleaning out as they can get bits of fluff in them, which means the lightning cable into the phone doesn’t make a good connection.

I've been having problems with my phone disconnecting (Android Auto) with any slight movement.

As SRGTD said. Don't think it's the USB port, it's the port on the phone. Gave mine a clean out and that seems to have solved it for now.

Could always try another cable and see if that works.

The official lead is incredibly finicky and delicate. I doubt the fuse has blown.
