Gointo the Bluetooth of the iPhone and forget the Bluetooth connection to the vehicle. Turn off Bluetooth. Go into the vehicle and delete the iPhone from there. Reset the iPhone, hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. After the phone restarts, put the vehicle into discovery/pairing mode. Turn the Bluetooth on in the iPhone, which puts it into discovery/pairing mode. See if the two will connect after that. If you have any further problems, see this support document.

Are you seeing the vehicle showing up at all when the iPhone is in discovery/pairing mode? Have you double-checked the user guide for the vehicle system to ensure that it is in discovery/pairing mode when you are trying to connect? If you are having difficulty getting it into discovery/pairing mode, I suggest bringing the phone and the vehicle to the dealer and see if they can assist you in this,.


Thanks i have been to the dealer, they are useless, the guy from the engineering part didnt knwo what iphone he had never mind how to pair them, the upshot of all of the whole debacle, is that the media nav is a peice of rubbish and until they update it to accomodate my 5s i cant use my phone in the car,


when i recieved the clio 3 weeks ago at the dealer the agent from renult said that thier is a problem with the 5s and the medianav bluetooth - device appears on list but doesn't connect or connect and then doesn't work with the medianav...


after the device shows up in the device list i tried to connect, it said "key 0000" (default key) and after a few seconds, while waiting for the iphone to ask for the key, the medianav said "wrong key" and that's regardless to the fact that i wasn't promped with the key on my iphone


at last - i deleted all the bluetooth devices saved on my iphone one by one manually and then medianav showed up and asked me for the key and connected. if i remember right, I shut down contacts sync (inside the device in the iphone bluetooth list) and only after that it connected


- The smartphone is connected to a (pretty crappy, but only 10 bucks) bluetooth audio receiver which is connected with a stereo jack to the cd charger input of my Alpine car radio. I had nothing to modify on this part.




- The display receives the song title and the artist name from the smartphone using a bluetooth communication. The Tasker app for Android is used to extract text from the notification (A notification is sent from the webradio every time a new song starts). I had to slightly modify an existing plugin from Tasker to send the text to a bluetooth spp module. An arduino board relays the text from the bluetooth module to a canbus module. The canbus protocol used to drive the display has to be reverse engineered.


The last thing bited me: at 3.3V Arduino board usually have a 8MHz oscillator. It seems that the canbus library for Arduino doesn't like to work at 8MHz. I'm not sure of that, if you know where I failed, please contact me...


I then tried to use a overclocked 3.3V 16MHz Arduino board by replacing the Arduino 8MHz resonator with a 16MHz one. I doesn't work neither as the bootloader is now at 115200 bauds instead 57600. I gave up at this stage and decided to make my own pcb to achievemy small form factor goal.


I intend to fit this module wrapped in shrink tube inside a compartment of the car. It is near the fuse box and I can open it by just removing a bezel (no screws!) : it is pretty mandatory for the future updates of the firmware.




My first intention was to plug the SPP BT module on the hardware UART of the Arduino board to use indiffrently the USB or the BT link without code changes. But, as I still have some issues (some notifications are lost, ...), I finally plugged the SPP BT module as a software serial interface and I use the USB link to debug my program.




At this time, I can send text to my display on the canbus but I need the Renault car radio attached to the display to make it function properly. My goal is to throw away this head unit and use my Alpine one. I logged some canbus packets and I discovered a few things:


For the other Can ID's, I was stucked. At this moment, I was fortunate enough to find a guy who did the same thing with the opposite goal: he wanted his custom display to work as the Renault one. His work is based on a very similar Megane AFFA3 display.


great project. I want made something similar to my dashboard display on my Seat Exeo (identical in construction to Audi A4) with the aim show music title and notifications from my Android phone and control music with steering wheel remote control on my phone. Bevor I work deep in this theme, I have some general questions to you and hope that you can help me:


1.) My original car radio is still build in. What do you think, how often does the car radio send, for example, the message "AUX" through the CANBUS? Only once when the Aux mode is switched or permanent ( every ms, s, ect.)?


2.) It is possible to interecept the steering wheel remote control signal with the CAN BUS Shield? As I understand it working by this car also through the CANBUS. Since the wheel remote control have no function in the AUX Mode for the car radio, I will use them to control my android playlist.


Hi, have you found how to read the built in encoder?

I'm tring to read it but for some reason it looks odd.



I don't have a scope to read and visualize how it work, this is why I'm asking you if you found a way.




I just found your project. It is a bit similar than mine. I have a Clio too with a JVC stereo. I would like to build a converter among the new radio, steering wheel remote controller and the display with the possible less demolition. I will use the yellow mini iso connector.


Instead of using this relatively complicated circuit, why dont you use ESP32? It is already have mcu + bt + wifi built in. You can talk to canbus through uart. And as far as I see there bluetooth AVCP apis to get playing song info.


I've taken it to a garage a few times but they've not been able to find any fault code so either the fault isn't generating a code or other codes have pushed the fault codes out of the ECU's memory (I've left it overnight once but the temperature the following moring was too warm for the fault to show up).


I was thinking if getting a cheap OBD2 port diagnostic unit, preferably bluetooth along with a bluetooth OBD2 App - There doesn't seem much point paying for a dedicated DBD2 diagnostic unit when my (Android) smartphone can perform the same function.


Go to the Google Play store and search for Torque pro. the Torque description page gives advice on bluetooth adaptors. Torque Pro is about 3 and I paid about 20 for an adaptor. It works very well and is worth having for the cost. However, it may not help you because it only reads what's in your ecu, which may not be storing a fault code for the fault you are experiencing.


My Saab 9-3 petrol runs like a bag of spanners from cold for about 15 seconds and then smooths out. the usual cause is worn inlet valves. A cold followed by a hot compression test is required to confirm. I'm waiting the delivery of a new compression tester - old faithful has gone walkabout. i'm also buying a cheap endoscope so i can look at the valves via the plug holes.
