Hey all Ive been having some issues with my 2016 Mazda 3. I Installed both a wired and wireless apple CarPlay module to try and fix this issue and updated my infotainment system to 700.00.100 and I am getting random disconnects….. i used to be at 700.00.21 and I had hoped that updates the system would fix the issue but it didnt, i even went about and trying to disable the cars bluetooth as I thought it was interfering but that didnt change anything.… i am thinking my phone may be too new? (Iphone 15 pro max,
geometry dash lite). Has anyone encountered this issue and fixed it? Or have any ideas?
If you're using a wired connection, ensure the cable is undamaged, firmly plugged into both the phone and car's USB port, and is Apple-certified (lightning cable).
A simple restart of your iPhone and Mazda 3's infotainment system can sometimes resolve temporary glitches.
On your iPhone, try resetting network settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings). This can eliminate any Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connection issues interfering with CarPlay.
While you updated to 700.00.100, see if there are any newer updates available from Mazda. Their website or dealership might have information on this.
If none of these steps work, contacting Mazda support directly is recommended. They might have specific troubleshooting procedures or software updates for CarPlay issues with the 2016 Mazda 3.
