Hi everyone,
I'm having trouble connecting CarPlay to my Mazda CX-5 (2021) and could really use some help.
Initially, I thought the issue was due to an outdated firmware version (I was on 11026). Thanks to @Candurin , I successfully updated to 11048 — but unfortunately, that didn’t solve the problem.
Here’s what’s happening:
Any advice or suggestions would be super appreciated!

Here’s what’s happening:
- I can connect my phone via Bluetooth and play music just fine.
- However, CarPlay doesn't activate — my phone doesn’t detect the car, and the car doesn’t prompt me to add a CarPlay device.
- I know there were previously connected devices (from the previous owner), but I’ve removed all of them.
- I've tried deleting and re-adding my phone as a device — still no luck.
- Bluetooth is definitely on and working, but no CarPlay screen appears, like I’ve seen in some tutorial videos.
Any advice or suggestions would be super appreciated!
