• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

F3 2022 Trunk USB Port not charging - any ideas why? Fixes?

I have a 2022 F3 & the usb in the trunk is lit up blue when engine is running but it doesn’t charge, I was going to New Orleans and using my phone for directions and phone almost died, wouldn’t have had a clue how to get where I was going, any input as to why this wouldn’t be charging??
 
That reminds me, I need to put my USB tester on the trunk port. It indicates volt and amps. I'm wondering if it may be like some cars where the power to the USB is enough to operate a phone or GPS but they are intentionally not providing enough power to CHARGE a phone. I hope this is not the case, because, what is the use of a USB in the trunk when you are never going to be using something plugged in there while you are driving! (No if I can remember where I put my tester ....)
