It worked after I turned car off for a while. Weird. But I have noticed that the phone doesn't always automatically pair. Hmmmm..possibly a gremlin in the new phone.

Galaxy Note 4 not pairing

My note 2 hooked up, albeit, at a poorer quality than expected. But with my new note4, the car nor the phone are seeing each other. Anybody have a resolution?
