Connection Help??? '23 RT

[Motor32]

Can anyone give me a heads-up for other posts (I've searched and read other posts/videos, but still lost) or just plain old help???

When going out for a ride, getting the phone, bike, Wifi, Bluetooth, Cardo, music from speakers, and all working, takes a little time, OK all's good.

Then five minutes later I stop for gas and turn off the bike and have to repeat the whole process.

What am I doing wrong, in a certain order (Bluetooth, Wifi, then turn on Cardo), I do have the phone where it doesn't go to sleep on the app, but just not sure what to do???????????

Talk about NOT being user friendly???

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

I have a 2014 RT, so I'm afraid I can't provide too much help on the '23 TFT, but with my bike (and just about every other Bluetooth device I've used), I just start the bike back up and everything automatically reconnects.

So, when you stop for gas, don't turn off the Cardo (you're only stopped for a few minutes anyway), and also, don't turn off Bluetooth on your phone. Then start up the bike. I assume that if you're in the app then, that everything should just automatically reconnect.

Now, sometimes with my Sena/Bike/Phone/Garmin, it takes up to a 30-60 seconds to reconnect, but it eventually does with no problem.

I'm not sure what kind of phone you have, but with the iPhone, it automatically reconnects Bluetooth, even up to the point of being annoying. If you have an Android, is there some setting to auto reconnect bluetooth?

I do have a iPhone 14 Pro and like you said, I don't turn anything off except the bike, then after starting it again nothing goes back to being connected and I'll spend five minutes going through it all again. I'm sure I'm missing a step or doing something wrong.

I don't have your problem, I have a 22R1250RT and a Android Samsung phone. Be sure you have the Connected app location always on and the phone don't close it. Mine always connects if I ride the bike often. I just had a hip replacement so the bike is parked for a while I know my phone will shut the app down due to lack of use so I'll have to turn on location for the app. Every now and than the helmet Schuberth SC2 Bluetooth won't connect, easy fix is, shunt down the SC2 and open, all good. Hope that helps.

Thanks for the help, I'll make sure the location is always on and is always open and not asleep.

You don't have the phone set to auto reconnect to your home wifi do you? Mine reconnects. I don't have a headset but use bluetooth earphones so it's the same process.

Thanks, I'll make sure.
