The USB port in the FIAT 500 may experience issues with functioning correctly. To troubleshoot this problem, first, check if any connected devices or phones are still charging and if power is being supplied to them. A malfunctioning port will not provide power to any device connected to it. Another common reason for USB malfunctions is faulty software. Reset the FIAT's Audio system to its factory default settings. To do this, disconnect the negative battery cable located under the hood of the FIAT for 30 minutes and then reconnect it. Make sure to check for any "firmware update" notifications for your vehicle to ensure that none are required. Additionally, try using a can of compressed air to clean the USB port. If these steps do not resolve the issue, it is recommended to seek assistance from a professional.

My 2014 Fiat 500's USB port is charging and connecting with my phone, but the radio display doesn't show any available connections. I have the basic non-touchscreen display and it was working fine with my friend's iPhone 13, but my older iPhone SE isn't being recognized. It was working perfectly until it suddenly stopped one day. Can you please assist me with this issue?

I discovered that the iPhone 12 wasn't functioning properly when connected to the USB in a Fiat 500 because the MUSIC app had been deleted. After reinstalling the app, Spotify worked correctly. This particular iPhone was having trouble connecting to play Spotify.
