Hey all,

New to the forum - was hoping someone could help me with a recent issue.

All of a sudden, my bluetooth connectivity has stopped working. For a couple of days, it would work for 20-30 minutes, and then cutout. As soon as it cuts out, bluetooth phone, nor audio would work. Then, yesterday, it stopped even connecting. Just shows "connecting to iphone" on the screen.

I've been searching the internets, but have been unable to find anyone having a similar problem. I'm interested to find out if this is a Infiniti or iphone/ios7 problem.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Welcome to Nico!

If the car connected at all to your mobile, I reckon it's compatible. Maybe have a look at the phone screen on the car and if you see your phone listed, delete it and then try re-connecting it. Personally, I never use Apple products as they have a history of NOT getting on well with other devices, but other peeps on here seem to be able to use their Apple mobiles in their Ms.

Best of luck with this

The bluetooth in my car went out several months ago. My wife was driving it full time and never used it, so I only recently got around to fixing it. My problem was different, but I expect the fix would be the same. In my car, I had no volume come through the speakers from the hands free system. My phone would connect just fine, but when dialing a number or receiving a call the speakers would pop one time followed by complete silence. The navigation and stereo worked just fine.

I could not find anyone else having a similar problem, so took a chance and bought a used DVD Navigation unit (which includes the bluetooth module). My bluetooth works again, so the problem was with the bluetooth module in the Navigation unit. I have no idea if that individual module can be replaced... replacing the entire Navigation unit was relatively easy. The part cost $175 on ebay, and I seem to have gotten a decent deal. From my search, a clean used unit with a warranty usually runs around $250. I made an offer to a listing from a salvage yard and they accepted.

If you proceed, you will lose all of your navigation settings (saved addresses), your phonebooks, linked phones, and maintenance schedule data. You may want to glance at your maintenance schedule before pulling the unit if you use the car as your only source of tracking. There is no security code built into the unit, so you will not have to worry with unlocking the unit with a security PIN after installing. After I installed, I had the maintenance schedule, linked phones, and contacts from the donor car. That was easy enough to clear out and set back up.

I have a 2004 Fuga but cannot get the on light on the DVD unit to light up.
Can you advise on which control is used for this.

I no longer have the car, but another thing you can do is use the Google Translate app on your phone to take a picture of the Japanese word and have it translated...
