PART III. TROUBLESHOOTING / HELPDESK

Q: I cannot pair Carplay, says “Connecting…”


A: Delete all the phones from the iDrive system. Delete the car from iPhone Bluetooth menu. Hold down
the volume button for 30 seconds to restart the system. Make sure that WIFI, Bluetooth and SIRI is
turned on on your iPhone. Make sure you are not on any WIFI network (Carplay needs WIFI from your
phone). Check you see a BMW WIFI network Carplay on you iPhone. Go to Communication > Manage
mobile devices > Add new device > Apple CarPlay and connect your iPhone.
If that does not help 99% that your car is not equipped with WIFI antenna. Just get one and install it.
Do not worry. You can easily find one on your local market. It costs arround 10-15 Euro. It is very easy to
install it. It is plug and play. No coding needed. A 5 minutes job.

Q: While running FeatureInstaller, connection was interrupted, loading was NOT successful, stuck with
bluescreen.
A: Load FeatureInstaller again, when asked if you want to load from backup, choose Yes. Wait till procedure is
finished. Run all procedure again from Step1. Make sure internet connection is stable.

Q: Navigation says “Loading…”, maps do not work


A: Remember FSC_XXXXX file you copied to the safe place? Well you need that now. Get empty USB or
USB with EVO maps, create new folder in USB root directory and name it “FSC”. Copy FSC_XXXXX file
inside the FSC folder. Plug USB to the car and Navigation will be fine.

Q: I cannot watch Youtube videos on Carplay


A: Thanks to Youtube and BMW AG policies, you will not be able to do that. You can only watch MP4 video files
from USB while driving.
