Problems with CarPlay using usb a to usb c cables

When you get a new iPhone, it's very helpful to do the following:

1. Delete the previous iPhone from your cars memory in the infotainment system
2. Make sure you give your new iPhone a new name by going to Settings > General > About > Name
3. Make sure the cable you're using is a data capable cable. Read this user tip --> https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-250007831

Not all USB A to USB C cables are created equal.

If it's any help, I bought these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B089DM4KDW?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1

They work fine for CarPlay for me.

I have no interest in the company that makes or sells them. Just saying these worked for me.

And this cable works great in our cars, also from Amazon and very affordable. Plus I like how it's coiled when not in use, but stretches a good distance when you do need to use it: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C3B73MWX?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1
