5. Turn on Bluetooth on the iOS device.

Troubleshooting

· Make sure you have allowed BimmerCode access to Bluetooth (iOS Settings > BimmerCode > Bluetooth)

· Make sure to follow the steps outlined in "Preparing your vehicle" and "How to connect".

· Remove the OBD adapter from the OBD port, plug it in again firmly and make sure that the LEDs in the adapter are lighting up. If the LEDs in the adapter do not light up when connected, the adapter may be faulty or there may be an electrical problem with the OBD port in your vehicle (a bent pin for example).

· Make sure that your OBD adapter is supported for your specific vehicle. You can check compatibility here.

· Restart your device and the OBD adapter by unplugging it.

· If you have some kind of third party CarPlay unit connected to the iDrive system in your vehicle, please enable "Ignore headunit" in the settings in the app. If you want to access the headunit with BimmerCode you have to disconnect the CarPlay unit from the iDrive system temporarily.
