My car won’t pick up music playing from my phone when I try to hook it up to my USB port. How do you fix a USB port in a car CD player?

Not having music to listen to in the car is a drag! Thankfully, fixing your car CD player’s USB port could be a matter of troubleshooting. Try some of these options:
- Make sure the USB port is clean and free of any dust or debris
- Check the USB’s power indicator light if it has one
- Verify the two devices you’re using are updated and compatible with each other
- Make sure you’re using a working USB cable
- Check that your stereo’s in the right mode to be reading the device from the USB port
- Reboot the stereo system
It’s also possible the USB port is no longer working and may need replacement, especially if it had been working with your device previously. You’ll want to visit a mechanic or audio professional to get the issue fixed.
Since you’re fixing your car, now is a great time to ensure you have the proper
