Having problems pairing my phone over bluetooth. Any advice?
So many topics about this so didn't know which to post on....
But tried for 2 minutes using the manual using step by step on here not working, suddenly had a brainwave ejected the nokia holder thingy tried again and it worked first time, paired the phone and copied across contacts.... I'm happy now!

Yes, is yours android? I believe this is a problem with the Bluetooth stack in the latest builds of Android. I've looked into it and it seems the phone needs to be rooted and then hacked a bit.z4all wrote:It pairs for a second and then disconnects...anyone had this?!

Having problems pairing my phone over bluetooth. Any advice?
I had this problem last week trying to pair my iPhone 6S for the first time. I was getting "pairing successful" on the screen then i was losing it again and it would do what you said - pairing for about a second then losing it. I got around it by unpairing the phone (basically starting again from scratch) and working through the pairing process, then after putting in the blutooth code and pairing successful coming up, turn off the ignition instantly before it has time to lose the pairing. This worked consistantly and copied the contacts over.

Hi there if you are looking for the code for the pairing between the car and the phone then it will be in the boot there is a stepped out section of the back of the boot as you look in mines on the left hand side of the car behind where the passenger seat is, if you pull back the carpet there should be metal box behind there and on top of it is the sticker with the Bluetooth passcode on it. Hope this helped.Ditchcruiser wrote: ↑Mon Aug 07, 2017 9:03 pm Just picked up 08 20lt no paperwork at all can't find the Bluetooth modal for code and can't get to ask for code only get call and send and galaxy note 3 won't find the car any help appreciated guys

I've tried many times to pair 2 different iPhone 5's to mine.
I get into pairing mode, display says 'searching.....' but doesn't see either phone and phones don't see car.
Obviously phones are set as visible on Bluetooth!
Any help welcome.
