2014 GL1800 and IPhone 5

[recon]

When I first brought the new bike home my IPhone 5 the phone plugged right up to the usb connection in the trunk. Then the connection became unreliable.
I have tried 3 different apple cords with no success. My older iPhone 4 works fine. Has anyone had similar problems? thanks!

Just an Technology suggestion have you closed all the apps and powered off the iPhone and try it then?

Yes! Thank you!!!! Worked like a charm! I am no longer bummed out over this, full control over music and audio books!

Unless it a certified Apple cord it may stop working for the IPhone 5. Apple has a chip in their IPhone 5 cords and many aftermarket IPhone 5 cord do not have this chip and they will stop working when you plug them in.
