usb

I've recently changed phones and my previous phone charged albeit slowly when using Android Auto and GPS. New phone actually loses power when plugged in. I think the head unit can only supply around 500ma which seems is not enough to run AA, GPS and charge. Has anyone else seen this and come up...

USB innards carefully removed from T6 after I installed retention cable from InCarTec

Hello Friends, I have a T5 Leisuredrive (just recently got it) I know nothing ha! Inside the glove box I see two leads with some sort of connections like a usb, see photo, what can they be? Also, there is a small black box with a stick-on aerial on the inside front windscreen, which may or...

Good afternoon all, both our double usb’s have stopped working in our campervan. The rear was easy enough to swap over but the front (in the dash where the cigarette lighter used to be) is proving more difficult to find a replacement for. Has anyone come across this before? It seems to have a...

Hi everyone! I just got a brand new 2023 T6.1 for work. It only has the 2 USB-C ports on the dash under the head unit. Problem is I need 3 of them. One for my dash cam, one for my phone charger and another one for the apple carplay adaptor. I can use a double USB adaptor on the cig lighter...

Reference the Lower Dash Usb Socket, please can anyone advise me if the usb connection wiring goes directly to the headunit or somewhere else, as tracing the wire it would appear to go away from the headunit. I didnt want to strip all the dash out if only to find it eventually goes to the...

Got a 'plug and play' speaker and amp kit for my 2018 Highline TSI. There's a lot of the 'plug' bits LOL! I have fitted the door speakers and tweeters and have the head unit out, but there's a lot left to connect. It's a factory NAV unit, can anyone help me figure out which plugs go where...

Hello First time poster! I just bought a VW Transporter T6 4Motion. It has a leisure battery under the front passenger seat with a split charger installed, and I'm not sure which battery is in there. I would love some advice on how to add a three pin plug socket, a battery charge indicator...

As the title suggests. is anyone selling a usb retention cable. Thanks

Hope someone can help with this- I was having problems with the USB socket connected to my Pioneer head unit. The female USB was loose, when I took the plastic plate off the USB cable came out completely and is stuck somewhere in the dash. I can just about see it, but no end of fishing...

Hi, I noticed that my usb ports normally powered by the leisure battery don’t work when the engine is running. I think this is pretty common as a few other friends who have converted vans have said the same. Is there an easy way to override this? I know the leisure battery can provide power...

Hi, I am thinking of swapping out my car stereo for an iPad with a Bluetooth speaker. In order to keep all this running I would need to charge an iPad mini, speaker and a Wi-Fi dongle. with this in mind I was thinking to use a piggy back fuse to a dedicated usb hub or something. Are there...

Morning all Since fitting a pioneer sphda230dab the usb port in dash is now dead on my t6 does anyone know how to get this back working please

There are a bunch of threads on here with people reporting that USB CarPlay with their VW head units often disconnect. Some got around it by using a USB -> wireless adapter, others talk about replacing the USB port but that doesn't seem to always work. Is there a definitive root cause to this...

Evening. Sorry if this is old news but I just found these on the PiHut UK store - seem to be small enough to fit into the T6 button blanks. Have ordered the USB C one and will report back when fitted / failed miserably. Specs are pretty good - USB3.0 A to 3.1 C

I've had a quick search and cannot see it posted elsewhere but I've been having problems connecting my Android phone to the media unit in my T6.1. It just doesn't seem to recognise the phone despite it charging it. I've checked connections, changed cables etc all without success but think...

I am finally getting round to installing my head unit, I thought it would be nice to keep the standard USB in the dash so bought one of these to connect the head unit USB to the VW 4 pin connector...

Hi all Makes sense that as the new head unit doesn’t utilise the round USB connector that the dash USB is now dead, but what can I retrofit to get it powered again? Only want power as head unit is RCD360. Thanks.

Apologies if this is a duplicate question but a quick search didn't yield and answer. I'm picking up a new T6.1 with Discover Media option in a month and wondered how many USBs this arrangement has, where they are located (just the 2 in the centre dash? or are there others) and how many/which...
