When i phone goes is in blue tooth mode and then passenger changes to handset to talk on phone privately not through speakers the radio will not play, Anyone know how to get radio to play when you have manually switched i phone to handset? Old XJ the radio still played automatically when passenger would talk on handset. New one 2013 I can't figure it out

 

Shot in the dark, but if you've got the phone plugged in and charging from one of the usb ports in the console, try unplugging it and see if you still have the issue.


There's all kinds of glitches in the iphone/jag interface. I can't say that I've ever tried to switch a call from the car's Bluetooth interface to the handset and resume listening to the radio, but I have experienced other ways the car and iphone Bluetooth connection don't paly nice.
In short, from my experience, the car doesn't like having the phone connected via Bluetooth while also being plugged in to one of the usb ports. Where I've run in to the most problems is trying to play back audio from the iphone, but I suppose it could be causing your issue too.


By "radio" do you mean AM/FM, satellite, or both?

 

I was talking about regular am/fm radio. Phone is unplugged, actually doesn't work plugged or unplugged. I used to be able to switch call to handset useage on the telephone or on the touch screen and the speaker would go off and radio would play, now no way to get radio to play while a call is being taken.
