Great video. Through trial and error I found out that if I connected my iPhone Xr for both phone and audio it kept disconnecting every few minutes. However, if I only connected for audio and ignore the phone setup entirely, it works well. Phone doesn’t go through the car stereo of course, but for me playing music is the main think I need.
I have same issue with nissan serena which seems to be using same system. Thing is that it seems connecting to hands-free also connects to audio and visa-versa. Disabling cars' BT disables both.
So I've managed to get it working. Here's last few things I changed that finally helped, unsure which specifically: 1. Unpair and pair again, this time enabled "Allow Contacts and Favourites sync" 2. Went into navigation settings and disabled carwings notifications (use google translate in camera mode) 3. Set PIN to 12345 (instead of 1234)
Just got a Nissan Serena and it has the same system as your El Grand (was actually wanting the El grand but the Serena will do for the budget we have). Thank you so much for your helpful video, you're a life saver! 🙏
Fantastic! You're my star for today, Mitch. Thank you for helping me pair our phone on our 2007 Nissan X-Trail 2nd Gen. I further managed to set clock on instrument panel, but not on screen ... unfortunately video link you provided (a bit down) not helpful at all. Thanks again, Mate! Greetings from NZ.
Heaps of thanks! I spent two hours before searching a solution on many different forums but couldn't get it right. Now it's all sorted - finally can stream a music from my phone. You should include this link on Skyline forum Australia as many people still having a problem to nail the set up. Cheers! Many thanks
@@chikoson Hi Mitch! So I happened to forget ‘My Car’ device on Bluetooth and now I don’t seem to find it again when I scan. Even after resetting my network settings. Any help will be highly appreciated. I’m using iPhone 12
@@neemaprosper6152 Hmmm thats strange, have you tried removing the profile you orginally created in the car menu and started the process from the beginning? Maybe the car needs to 'handshake' with the phone and is not in pairing mode only connection mode when your trying to find your car again from your phone.
Thanks so very much Mitch, this is the best video, you have made my day. Now I can listen to my music in my car. You made it so easy to follow and clear. Awesomeness. Do you have one on making calls through the bluetooth?
No worries glad I could help! I havent delved into making calls using the handsfree other than getting my partner to select the number in my phone and then calling. In my video I showed how to setup the phone call profile which allows you to receive calls through the bluetooth system. But unfortunately thats about as advanced as I get sorry. I believe that u can setup an address book or speed dial a few numbers but the other option would be to try using voice commands to ur phone
Oh, thanks, the Bluetooth will be the next setup. Our Japanese imported 2007 Nissan X-Trail T31 has exactly the same system as yours. Can you tell me the name of the system please? I need to look for a video on how to set the clock. Thank you so much for this one!
There is a way to switch off the voice to the maps if thats what you mean. However I simply dont go into the navigator and it doesnt talk while I'm driving.
Hi Mitch, thanks for the tutorial. I followed every steps and got my phone connected however the sound doesn’t play on speaker. All other buttons ( skip forward; backward ect.) works just fine. Any suggestions of how to fix it ?
Hi, I’ve followed your video (very helpful cheers!) unfortunately the Bluetooth doesn’t stay connected, I’m unsure why, can you help, very frustrating cheers
Hi how do we delete a number or unpair a number . I want to connect my new phone but it keeps trying to connect my old one and now for some reason my new one won't pair. So I wanted to delete both phones and start again. Hope you can help. Your video is so awesome
Hi thanks for this video Iv used it several times - can you please advise how I can delete the old phones as it seems to be connecting to them and not my new ph? Thank you 👍🏻
@@chikoson much appreciated thanku- mine keeps connecting to my old ph which my son now uses instead of my new ph I have added. My Bluetooth keeps dropping out when it does connect so I’m thinking this could be the issue. Maybe deleting all the other devices and networks might help if I new how😀
Thank you Mitch, unfortunately the screen kee0s turning off if I don't press any buttons for a few seconds: I have managed to save my number and name a few times and it appears on my phone as a nearby device however (when it tries to pair) it says the password is insufficient and completely rejects it. I have checked the password and retried a few times-nothing has happend :(
Nice video I tried doing the steps on my Nissan elgrand e51 high way star but relised the Bluetooth button is greyed out so I can't turn it on or off any help will be appreciated
Tank u bro... Iya seem like my blootooht already conecth to my phone.. but when i want to play the music from UA-cam. The sound doesnt come out from the car audio.
my blue tooth hooks up for the phone however as for streaming music it will stream for 2 seconds and cut out and wont stream any more, though others seem to have no issues.
Just wanted to say thank you, I have now paired my phone to my Nissan Elgrand Highway star, just one more question would you know why it automatically self disconnects while playing music through my phone, then I have to connect it again then 5mins later is disconnects again & so & so 😩
Hi Mitch thanks for the helpful set up tips! will the ipod work on the Bluetooth for music and is it the same as setting up my phone i have Android phone.
I've never had an ipod so not sure, I'm assuming it would if its bluetooth capable. The phone I was using in this video was a Nexus 6P so an android phone and didn't have any issues.
HI Mitch, Your Video is absolutely good but I have got a problem. Any idea when the bluetooth button is greyed out and would not activate. Benn trying it all other ways but doesn't seem to make it work.
hey mitch, i was able to connect bluetooth and but cannot stream music and there is no bluetooth option iin audio settings, it is only showing 7 options instead of 8. this is for a nissan dualis 2007. Does it mean it doesnt support streaming music ?
Mitch F hi Mitch I meant is ther a way to to connect iPhone so you can use maps I only got one screen and I don’t know we’re is the aux port thanks no screen in back
Thanks for the help, l appear to have it set up so all calls are rejected and sent to voice mail. Not on my phone but one of the settings in the menu. Any idea on how to deselect this feature.
Simon Frye I've never come across that issue sorry. I would've thought that would be something to do with the handset settings not the car. There could be a setting to auto reject calls but I'm not aware of it sorry
Hi, I got Nissan elgrand raider 2008 model uk I connect Bluetooth listing music after 5 minutes it’s automatically getting disconnected then again I have to connect then again after 3 minutes or 2 minutes keep disconnected Any idea please
Cheers bro, I have connected the Bluetooth already, but another issue coming out , it is un-connect every 3or5 mins and no any signal, do you know the reason for this situation?
The only drop outs I've encountered recently are when I'm trying to pair my phone (Pixel 7). I usually hit the disc button and cycle through the modes to 'restart' the bluetooth connection. Usually holds pretty stable after that.
Mate, I follow all the instructions here but seems the main problem for me is how I can turn on my Bluetooth..it is showing off in the screen and cannot be pressed to turn it on. Could you please help..thanks
Hey mate, if it can't be selected I'm not sure what the issue would be sorry. There is a way you can turn bluetooth off and on but even with it turned off it will allow you to go all the way through to select a phone profile.
Great video. Through trial and error I found out that if I connected my iPhone Xr for both phone and audio it kept disconnecting every few minutes.

Not sure why that would be. Possibly your unit did not come with bluetooth, unable to assist sorry.

Thats strange, does music come out when u play spotify or music saved on ur phone?
I think you only setup the phone profile, not the audio profile which is the 2nd part of the video if you follow it all the way through

Hi one more thing is ther a way to connect an iPhone to this mine has only one monitor in front series 3 thanks
