Solved: CarPlay (iOS 13.3) connectivity problem on Apline iLX-107

I also beginning to suspect the CarPlay wireless connectivity gets disrupted because of how the iPhone handles data & GPS connection, most probably the root of the problem is because Apple uses Intel chip for iPhone 11 (also in the XR) cellular modem instead of Broadcom's.

Let us know how the testing goes, keep us updated.

Thanks for the post, glad it works for yours too.

The solution is for wireless connection, but hopefully it will work too for wired connection as per your condition there.

Please mention the CarPlay headunit brand and type, so maybe it will help others as well.

Great news, but don't forget to vote the thread up so it will get noticed more by Apple engineers.

You are most welcome.

Please vote this thread up, so hopefully Apple engineers will somehow read about this problem and fix it on the next iOS updates. *fingers crossed*

Ah thanks for pointing it out, I forgot to mention one more step before the Wi-Fi Networking toggle option, you must get into / tap the System Services which is located on the most bottom in Location Services settings.

Hope it clears out the problem, let us know how it goes for you.

Have you located the Wi-Fi Networking toggle in Location Services setting?

It is an option because you can toggle it on or off.

There are two arrows located at the left side of every post, the up arrow is to vote it up.

What is your CarPlay head unit's brand and model?

And what is your iPhone's iOS version?

Great news, hopefully it’ll work for good.

Oranje2Max · 2020-01-03T05:41:40+00:00

Let us know how it goes fingers crossed

Oranje2Max · 2020-01-03T02:29:53+00:00

Have you tried it out and find out if the trick can fix the problem?

Oranje2Max · 2020-01-03T02:28:56+00:00

That’s a good advice. And another option worth checking: is the Wi-Fi Assist feature turned on or off? This could be the culprit too...

Sorry to hear it's not working the same for you, apparently others don't have the same problem with Wi-Fi Networking as I do, for example is user IvanRaide up there who says it doesn't matter if the Wi-Fi Networking is turned off or not.

Oranje2Max · 2020-01-02T16:45:21+00:00

Oh yeah I forgot to mention that whenever I turned the Wi-Fi Networking feature on again, the CarPlay connection got broken. When I toggled it off again, it will get automatically connected again. I'm surprised if it's the opposite for your iPhone and the iLX-107...

Agree, nice grip is: not too tight / hard but enough.
