USA-Spec malfunction?
Whats the likelyhood these things stop working? Is it a common issue? Im almost sure it stopped workinng but not sure for certain. Ive had it for just over 6 months... theres no warranty on these? I really hope i dont have to buy a new one, pretty frustrating if so and considering this one may have kicked the bucket after under a year, I'm not sure I will, any help or input is greatly appreciated. Im running the Bt45-hon with xmTuner fyi....
Thanks in advance 😩
P.S. maybe its my phone?

You probably have already done this, but I would check the BT45 FAQ page at: BT45 FAQ and Troubleshooting

uh well it stopped doing what it does.... wouldnt connect on startup and then wouldnt connect when selected from the list. So then I unpaired it n then it wouldnt show up in discovery mode when trying to re(pair) it.... I bought it from Ship Sound on amazon... they offer a 1 year warranty on all they sell so Im in the process of doing an exchange.... Im wondering if extreme temps played a role (weather) I had it velcroed to the inside rear panel by the XMtuner... maybe ill try tucking this next one more towards the inner trunk.....

I had mine in the inner trunk lining for 4 years under hot and cold extremes until I relocated it to inside the car, and I never had any issues Then again, electronics are picky so it's entirely possible.

^^^^ According to my understanding the only thing different between the two unit is that BT45-Acu let you keep the live traffic in your navi and BT45-Hon won't let you keep that feature.

I am not an avid xm user and i don't have xm option in my car so theoretically bt4t-hon should work i think. And i prefer google for traffic updates.

Check that your connection is good. I ordered first unit which I happened to have a different issue with so I replaced it, but at the first install I connected all successfully, and for life I could not make it work. I went ahead and carefully unplugged all and re-plugged everything in making sure all connections were firmly IN.
Perhaps there is a disconnect due to loose connection?

In your case either of them will work. I never use the live traffic updates because most of the time its inaccurate anyway (even one from google), Road show as orange but when I got there the traffic flow smooth avg 30-45 mph.
