The way I understand your post is that you solved your problem by connecting your Cardo headset to the bike which is needed for CarPlay to work.

 

Sorry for confusing the post. I tried updating it again I do want to use Apple Carplay on my bike using a wireless dongle
Thanks

 

Papanorm is correct, it seems you’ve solved your issue. CarPlay needs a headset to work.

You’re going to need a headset device (like a Sena) -or- a Bluetooth device that mimics a headset (like the one pictured) and pair that to the bike. After that, you should be able to use the wireless CarPlay device.

The reason the wireless dongle worked on your truck and not on the bike is that your truck has a speaker built in for CarPlay - so there’s no need for an auxiliary Bluetooth device like a Sena.

 

Thanks My dongle is a BT dongle
I will try your suggestion again

Even though the wireless CarPlay dongle is BlueTooth, the dongle should be paired/connected to your phone, correct? So, you still need a BlueTooth headset (or something to mimic a headset) that pairs/connects to the bike.

 

Maybe I’m confused. So you plug the dongle into the USB connection. Then pair the phone to that. Then, use a wireless device, like a sena, Cardo, Meadhawk, or BT headphones, only paired to the bike. Then you should be good to go.

 

Still not resolved after multiple attempts, I will return the dongle and purchase another one
Dongle should act as a Head set and let Apple Carplay show on the screen

That’s NOT correct. The dongle does not act as a headset.

 

You need theee things to make it work.
1) I phone that can use BT.
2) The dongle to connect to the BT phone.
3) A Cardo, sena or a Meadhawk, or something like it, that connects to the cigarette lighter to connect to ride command.
The dongle does not work by itself to make CarPlay work. YOU HAVE TO EITHER HAVE A MIC OR MIMIC ONE.

 

Thanks for your help. Remember, the requirement is not to use the BT headset, I am want to use Car Play for Google maps and other apps like the Garage door opener

You need 2 things to make it work.
1) I phone that can use BT.
2) The dongle to connect to the BT phone.

Connect the dongle to the USB port of the Ride command
Connect the Iphone BT to the Dongle BT
It should work as BT dongle should act like a Wireless head set
I cannot paste a Link here, but several videos showing how it can be done it's my dongle giving me hard time

 

I don’t know how to get you to understand that you have to have a mic to make CarPlay work. No mic, it won’t work like you are expecting.

Lol. You review that post. Specifically the 5th reply in that post.

 

You need 3 devices.

1 your phone
2 the wireless dongle
3 a headset device (cardo, airpods, maedhawk, etc )

There is no other way around it.

You can use a cardo heatset, or earbuds to the bike and still play music through the big speakers. Just go to the audio settings page in ride command and find the output toggle and set it to speakers.

 

This issue has been resolved
Thanks for all the guidance

Here is what I did

1 I connected the male connection of Maedhawk using USB type A to USB-C to the wire coming out of the Ride command
2 Added Maedhawk as a BT device on the Ride command
3 Connected the iPhone wire to the Maedhawk female side. Connected the iPhone to the iPhone wire
I can see the CarPlay on the Ride command screen

You cannot do the wireless CarPlay in the above-mentioned setup in order to do wireless CarPlay you need to connect a wireless CarPlay dongle
