I have a 23 XLT with a USB cable that I leave plugged in all the time. When I get in the truck, start up, and plug in my iPhone, it never starts charging until I unplug from the USB plug and plug it back it. This makes it start charging every time. If I unplug it from the phone and plug it back in, no charge.

What is going on here?

I’ve had that happen with wonky usb cords. There are several versions of USB cords. I suggest you find the latest USB-C cord, which is version 4. Enjoy and Happy Trails.

Had same issues until Music update a few months back, happens much less freq but still does occasionally. Same cord since bought the 23 XLT SO I will also look at v.4 usb C
