usb-c

Hi all, I’m working on the electrical system for my transporter and aiming to expand it without adding bulky components like an inverter. My current setup: Battery: 100Ah lithium with built-in temperature control. Charging: Victron 30A DC-DC charger as the sole charge source. Current Load...

I've recently changed phones and my previous phone charged albeit slowly when using Android Auto and GPS. New phone actually loses power when plugged in. I think the head unit can only supply around 500ma which seems is not enough to run AA, GPS and charge. Has anyone else seen this and come up...

Hi all, I'm in the process of sound-deadening the doors of my t6.1. I was thinking whilst I'm at it that I can drop some Alpine SPC-106T6 speakers in. The next point on that would be to upgrade the head unit before investing in the sub (I believe there are two options, one that works with the...

Hi everyone My name is Dave, Just joined the forum so a bit fresh I have had a T6.1 from new since April this year and have had issues with the media area. Basically when I plug a USB-C in to connection it it has difficulty finding it. When it does find it the unit keeps switching over to my...

I have just fitted the Kenwood unit into my T6.1 . Supplied by Transporter HQ with the T6.1 fitting kit. All fitted and working fine except for the 2 new USB C sockets in the front next to the 12v socket. Checked the circuits and power all there and lighting up. I spoke to Mitch at THQ who has...

Hi everyone! I just got a brand new 2023 T6.1 for work. It only has the 2 USB-C ports on the dash under the head unit. Problem is I need 3 of them. One for my dash cam, one for my phone charger and another one for the apple carplay adaptor. I can use a double USB adaptor on the cig lighter...

Hi folk, I need help, Our USB-Cs are totally dead, so cant charge our mobiles or Conect to the infotainment centre. I've checked the fuses and are all ok including the one under the passenger seat. Our van (T6.1 2021 model) is still under warranty and is booked in at our VW main dealer's in...

Evening. Sorry if this is old news but I just found these on the PiHut UK store - seem to be small enough to fit into the T6 button blanks. Have ordered the USB C one and will report back when fitted / failed miserably. Specs are pretty good - USB3.0 A to 3.1 C

I've had a quick search and cannot see it posted elsewhere but I've been having problems connecting my Android phone to the media unit in my T6.1. It just doesn't seem to recognise the phone despite it charging it. I've checked connections, changed cables etc all without success but think...

Hi all, First post for me... Under normal use the twin USB C sockets on my T6.1 startling have pushed through into the cup holder/ USB c / 12v socket trim panel. Any ideas on how this panel is removed before I snap something? I've searched forums and YouTube but with no luck! Thanks Alex

Can you connect your ipod/iphone directly into the head unit via a USB/C lead and not rely on Bluetooth? If where is the socket, I only seem to have two USC charging points by the lower cupholder.

Apologies if this is a duplicate question but a quick search didn't yield and answer. I'm picking up a new T6.1 with Discover Media option in a month and wondered how many USBs this arrangement has, where they are located (just the 2 in the centre dash? or are there others) and how many/which...

HI all Has anyone found a decent high wattage USB-C PD charger. Either to permanent fit or as a plug in? I have a drone on order and modern phones seem to be going this way, would be good to fast charge in the day when the panels are at full tilt. TIA Alan

Hi all! I'm in the process of deciding what extra bits and pieces are going into my T6.1 conversion and I arrived at the subject of 12v/USB power supply. I've been speaking with the company that will be doing the build and so far I'm thinking... 2x 240v Sockets 2x USB Sockets (Each with...

New van day yesterday. On the drive home I had cause to plug in my phone for a charge up on my T6.1. I bought a couple of adaptors to allow me to plug a straight forward USB plug into the USB-C socket. Disappointed to find that only one of them appeared to be working! Could this be a fuse...

Out of curiosity, what happens when there are 2 iPhones plugged into the 2 USB-C ports in the T6.1? Do you get to choose which phone to have on CarPlay?

Hi New to this as only bought a T6.1 yesterday. Didn't realise until today that the USB's in cab are USB C. Can the card insert be changed or what is the best adaptor for data transfer to use navigation and connect to apple play? Thanks in advance

Hi all ordered a 6.1 highline today. It’s arriving next wed. just want to double check does the 6.1 still have the 2 pull down down arm rests on the drivers seat like the T6 ? It was one of my favourite things on my t6 cheers

Has anyone installed a usb c type port in there van ? I’m thinking about charging my lap top and I don’t think standard usb sockets can provide enough power

Still speccing our first foray into Transporter world and in need of a little reassurance. I think I can do without the inbuilt satnav and just plug the iPhone in - the 6.1 brochure shows a very Apple-y looking display. Anyone got any experience of this?
