Having issues with CarPlay not able to send audio to 22’ Lariat.

[Whitetiburon]

I have a 2022 Lariat with the BO package (not the unleashed). I have an iPhone 16 pro max connected to my truck using CarPlay. The issue I am having is that the truck is intermittently not accepting the audio from the phone. If I play a YouTube video the video shows but no audio. I know it’s the truck because it starts working again when I reset the software in the truck. When I tried to trouble shoot by resetting the iphone and not the truck, the audio would not work. Is anyone else having this issue? I have sent a request for help to ford but no response.

I have had the same problem on rare occasions. No idea what caused it or what caused it to be ok next time I started the truck.

Has been an issue in 2022 lightning platinum w sound package and my ladies 21 Mach E for as long as we have had them. We both have iPhones.
Bluetooth and directly plugging in for connection to CarPlay both create this issue. The only solution I have had to overcome it is to stop the truck, completely shut it off (turn it off and open the door as if you are exiting) and then turn it back on. So now I try my best to remember to wait the seeming 10 minutes when starting it up for CarPlay to connect and test audio before driving.

I have this issue and the easiest way I found was to go to the phones menu, select your phone, tap on the Carplay icon to turn it off and then when it refreshes, turn it back on. Then Ill have audio.

I had a similar issue last Friday, but with the dongle that connects the Sirius car kit to the truck stereo. Bluetooth could see and connect to the dongle but no sound. I reset everything several times, then the music suddenly started in the grocery store parking lot. My thought was that the sun broke out from the clouds and temp warmed, or the new grocery store has special powers.

Good to know this works, will try that next time.
EDIT: had the "opportunity" to try this, and it works, better than turning off the truck.
Thanks!

I’ve had the same issue on my 2022 Lariat. I can’t hear my bride through the phone or hear any podcasts/music. I found it’s best to stop, put the truck in park, turn off the “ignition” open the door, and start the truck up again. Very annoying…also have BlueCruise 1.0, so maybe it’s punishment for Ford not upgrading the software.
