    Default Are there any Can-Am Bluetooth Tutorials? Anyone willing to do one?

    I have a 2021 F3 Limited. Bluetooth seems to be a buggy implementation or else I am not knowledgeable on BRP BT implementation.

    I'm wondering if there are any tutorials or experts willing to do a on-line seminar on Can-Am Bluetooth? What I need to know:
    1. Goals of BRP BT implementation (how they expected it to work)
    2. Options for connecting phone music to speakers (there appears to me several ways this can be cone)
    3. Purpose and expectations of having BT connected to one or two helmets
    4. Overall interactions between - radio, BT music, helmet(s), phone, helmet and other ryders etc...
    5. Interactions between everything bluetooth
    6. why an incoming call caused a phone GPS implementation to drop
    7. Etc ... on and on ...


    Due to frustrations with BT, I generally turn off BT on my phone and don't connect phone or BT to Can-Am.

    Have you tried looking on YouTube? I searched for "BRP connect tutorials" and found several videos that might answer some if not all your questions.

    Thanks, I'll have another look. It seems to be the interactions between various BT systems and modules that usually get cofusing.

    Search BRP connect here … there are a few threads with links and good answers. These helped me resolve my issues as there are links to videos by BRP and others on YouTube.

    I learn a bit from each video. However it appears that the best thing to do, in my case, is not use BRP BT for much since we use BT headsets in our hemets. I can play music from my iphone via BT through the speakers and probably through helmet. But the issue that remains is the awkward helmet BT issue. What are the possibilities when our headsets linked to each other (irrespective of BRP and phone) vs. connecting rider and passenger headsets to BRP. Then throw the phone into the mix.

    It would seem that if both BT headsets/helmets are connected to BRP, then communication between helmets would/could be going through BRP. Then if the phone is connected to BRP, do phone calls go through BRP to the headset mic and speakers? Or does the phone need to be connected directly to the BT on the helmet. Then, same questions when adding music from the iphone.

    Am I confused .....
