Has anyone had issues other than the Honda Link app's not working with their head units? Lately my iphone 6 has not been able to communicate with the head unit via BT, it about froze up yesterday driving home, it tried repeatably to call a number I had dialed earlier in the day. It seemed to work better when it was plugged in via USB. Hopefully Honda gets their act together and releases an update to the unit, and an update to the dreadful HondaLink app. If so, how would they do this? A trip to the dealer, or a USB download? Thoughts?

 

Interesting. Did the unit freeze completely? meaning, you couldn't even turn it off?

Here is the thread I started about a similar issue.

Mine, however, is an LX and not using hondalink. I have yet to make the time to take mine to the dealer, but I definitely plan to.

 

It didn't completely freeze, but very slow to respond, Source button inoperative, couldn't change music, etc. I think it was stuck on making a call I tried to stop. I restarted my phone and the car, this seemed to cure it for now.

 

We've had no issues with our iP6 in our new EX

apps work fine too

 

Try a radio fuse pull to reset it. You should find the radio code first before doing this. Could be in several places, bottom of hatch, in glovebox, underhood, etc...

Some electronics occasionally need a forced reboot

 

Check TMFITs post about Radio Codes - you need to get information out of the radio and then go online to get your radio code -- as its not provided in hard copy anywhere - if my recollection is correct... The process isn't hard - but you need to get the code before you reset the radio as getting it after the fact is a bigger issue...

 

Its not a big issue. Honda has it on stickers somewhere in the car. They have done it since they introduced secured radios in their vehicles. They wont stop now. Just like Honda puts the VIN number on fenders and hatches

Also, you can walk into any honda dealership, give them your VIN code, and they will give you the radio code. They cannot refuse you the code, as its part of purchasing the vehicle.

 

Is your 6 updated to iOS 8.0.2? Some bug fixes came out with that. Have had no issues with my 6 plus so far.
