Car can't find my iPhone over bluetooth

When I bought my 2015 Fit about six months ago my phone paired instantly, and it's been flawless ever since. However, yesterday I deleted all the previously connected Bluetooth devices on my phone to troubleshoot an issue i was having using a pair of earbuds.

When I got back in the car it was unpaired, and now it "can't locate" my phone no matter what I do. Bluetooth is enabled, it's disoverable, etc. It's not rocket science lol. I've reset my network settings, rebooted my phone, rebooted the car, not sure what else I can do. Anyone deal with this before?

Yes on a VW and Ford rental cars. I simply kept rebooting the phone, turning car on/off until those paired. Sometimes BT has it's own mind. My phone has refuse to pair only once and a quick shut car off, leave phone on, fixed that.

Ok thanks, I've looped that process many times now, no luck. Taking it to the dealer tomorrow.

Good especially if it under warranty

Somone else posted on another thread to force BT off on the car then turn it back on. It fixed their BT connectivity issue

Dealer was able to fix it quite easily. Go into Settings --> Bluetooth and just clear all the devices listed. After that it found my phone and paired easily.
