Nokia 6310i in car kit

Please can someone advise me : is there is any phone other than a nokia 6310i that i can use with my already existing incar system , the phone i have is great but old fashioned and i would love a new one , but i dont want to go to the expence of changing the built in car system ?
Thankyou

Assuming you have CARK-91 kit installed, you've pretty much reached the end of the line as the 6310i was the last handset compatible with the kit.
It is possible to add a CA-55 converter cable, but this only works properly with the 6230 and 6230i, not very well might I add.
So I would recommend changing your carkit if you plan on changing your phone.

Nokia 3210, which Car kit?

My mother has bought a car with a Cark 91 kit installed.
I have bought her a 6310i to use with it but wants her 3210 back.
Which Cark number, or cradle do I need to get?
Many thanks.

if you have connected the amplifier wires and the nokia output wires together then you could have damaged the nokia. you would need to put the outputs from you amp to the inputs of the nokia unless the is a very powerfull amplifier.
I need to correct what I say before. Carpc and amplifier was not powered on when I try to get sound from Nokia to speakers. Because I didn't get any sound out from Nokia, I disconnect car kit's speaker wires and I plug in Nokia SP-3 speaker to junction box. So I have not been able to damaged Nokia. Also I don't wanna connect amp outputs to Nokia's inputs because then it cut sound from carpc which I don't want.

IPhone 3GS and Nokia CK-100 Car Kit

Hi All,
I am having a problem with my new iPhone and a Nokia CK-100 car kit. The car kit worked perfectly with my previous phone and the iPhone is in the compatability list for the kit so I'm assuming its been tested. When I first pair the devices they work without any problems. However when I have left the car and come back to it the kit and phone connect automatically as they should and I am able to voice dial using the kit. However when the call is connected no sound comes out of the car speakers. I have to pick the iPhone up, set audio source back to the phone then back to the car kit to get it to work. I really can't be doing this everytime I need to make a call as it defeats the object of the car kit! I have the latest software installed on the car kit and am running 3.1.3 on the iPhone.

Do you know how the installer connected it to the Symphony Head Unit?
He could have connected it to the 'tel in', or used a mute cable that connects directly to the speakers.
If it is the former, try playing with the volume on the stereo during a call, and also turn the CK-100control button during a call (this also controls the call volume).
I have seen something similar where the setting on one was high and the other low
(can't remember which way though!)
Hope this helps!

Nokia hands free car kit & 6310i

when i bought my ford st170,i had a hands free car kit fitted, after selling it i bought a new ford transit connect but not before removing it to fit it to the van.The hands free has a red wire,yellow wire and black wire plus two wires for the speakers,having looked at the wiring for the van,the colour code is totally different.
Can anyone HELP me,
thanks,
martin....

If you are not quite sure where all the wires go in your vehicle then you should'nt attempt to install this kit, modern vehicles have very complex wiring systems on them and you can do damage which could cost you a lot of money. I have been installing car kits for 16 years and can put you intouch with a engineer near you if needed.

Nokia 6310i in car

Hey there,
I have a Nokia 6310i that works fine. If I use it in my car (with a car connector) I have the following problem:
Phone is switched off and in the connector. I turn on the ignition of my car, then the Nokia switches on as well - so far so good.
Unfortunately it does not switch off again when I kill the car's engine. It just stays on until the accu is empty.
I do not find any settings option that would solve this problem.
I even had the phone in a Nokia service-point, but the only idea they had was a software update, but that did not solve the problem either.
Does anyone have a clue?
Thanks,
Mike

Nokia 6230i Ford Car kit cradle

I have a Ford factory fitted car kit that is part of my dvd touch screen sat nav system. I have a Nokia 6230i and it was recently stolen from my car along with the cradle. I bought a new 6230i and a new cradle from Ford but when I install it in the cradle it says enhancement not supported. The Ford dealer that supplied the cradle have tried several different cradles and have now told me that the one I have is for a 6230 and that Ford do not make one for the 6230i. But my original one worked so they must do! Does anyone have one that works? And if so can they tell me the part number?

Sorry Dannyboy, but that won't work.
You have the correct cradle for the 6230i and it will work even with the newest software released some days ago.(v3.89)
"Enhancement not supported" is an indication for a problem with the ACI-Chip in the car's phone module (Accessory Control Interface-Chip).
So there is a problem in the Nokia handsfree module.
Unfortunately, there is no other possibility than going to your local Ford dealer and letting the "BT/VC" module replace.
This error is known at all Ford hotlines and it should be no problem for your dealer to clarify this.
Best Regards

Nokia CK-7W Car Kit won't switch off after switch...

Hi,
I have a CK-7W car kit (connected via bluetooth).
Recently, the car kit has been reconnecting 2 to 3 seconds after switching the engine of the car off. I cannot seem to stop this from happening, even when clearing memory or even disconnecting the car battery for 20 mins.
Any advice on how to reset the car kit would be helpful.
Thanks,
Chris

Thanks for the response.
The car kit was installed by a Car Phone Warehouse Nokia approved fitter about 4 years ago The kit has worked really well until recently!
The contol button doesn't seem to be stuck in and responds as it should to button presses. In terms of the cable being squashed or damaged. Obviously there is a chance, but in actual fact, only an inch is on show before it is hidden behind the dashboard. In this instance I'm not sure what damage might occur since I don't know how to remove the dash!
Apologies, I'm not certain I understand your comment re:
- "You can rule out the button by disconnecting it then starting the car and connecting, before switching off the car to see if the kit shuts down."
How do I disconnect the button? Does it pull away from the lead / cable?
Many, many thanks for your help,
Chris

Nokia Car Kit Adapters

Hello,
We currently have Full Nokia Car Kits installed for the Nokia 6310i.
We have now moved to the Nokia 6021 (as we can't get the 6310i's anymore) which has a different connector and so does not work in the existing Car Kits.
I have been told that Nokia do different Phone Cradles, called the 7 Series (?) which can the swapped or slotted onto the existing cradles so the 6021's then work in the existing Car Kits (speaker / Mic / Charger).
Can anyone offer any help on what we would need to do to use the 6021's in the 6310i's Car Kits.
Cheers
Ian

You can buy an adaptor cable CA-55 which will allow you to fit a CR-23 cradle and will work ok with your existing CAR-K91 car kits. I would however advise you look at upgrading your kits to CK-7W car kits which will cost you a few quid more but will be compatable for the future where as the above option has limited uses and features and can be unreliable.
Hope this helps

Nokia E75 to Nokia bluetooth CK-1W car kit

Hi Folks,
have seen several posts aboutbluetooth connectivity between E75 and non-nokia bluetooth devices. I bought a car with a Nokia CK-1W car kit in it.
Connected beautifully with my wifes Motorola V3 first time no problems.
Bought myself a new Nokia E75 - connects once to the car kit, then wait for a while and at some point - not long after the power save mode the connection is lost. NOte it is not when the power save kicks in but some time afterwards. I have tried to set "Remote SIM on" but cannot seem to find an answer. I have even checked for the latest firmware this evening and I have the latest version.
Can any body help or is it to much to ask for one piece of Nokia Kit to connect to another piece of Nokia kit.

I have same kind of problems between my E75 and MB R-class carkit. First they are connected and few seconds later disconnected. I have lost my nervs...

Nokia 8800 car kit connection

I have recently bought a car that came with a standard car kit, i think it is the most popular business kit, the CK-7W. This fits all recent models of nokia pone accept the 8800 and maybe a few others, i was wondering if there is a connection i can get to connect my 8800 to this kit, i am currently using a Nokia PPH-1 car kit that plugs into the cigarette lighter port but this is poor quality and a phone of this quality should surely have some sort of connection available. Can anybody advise me of this...
Thanks!

the Nokia 8800 should work with a ck-7w, you may have to reset the memory to make room for new connections. Press and hold Nokia button on dash till it bleeps, if this dont work find the brain box and unplug, it may need a power reset.

Converting car kit for 6210 for use with N73

I have a Saab 93 with Nokia issued 6210 car kit fitted at garage at delivery. Plays through speakers etc. I now have an N73 - is it possible to convert or add something to the original car kit to use the functionality with the new phone?
Thanks

We have a Nokia CarK-91 in the car with a simple pop-port adapter in the original cradle. It works without too much problems. We bought the adapter to use a 6230i in the CarK-91 cradle.
The N73 is wider then the 6230i so I had to cut away the sides of the adapter. There are also 2 plastic pins next to the pop-port itself that I had to cut off by 3 mm.
But now we can use the N73, the 6230i and the 6310i in the same carkit. The only thing is that you need to be cautious when clicking in the 6230i as there are no guidance pins anymore.
There are reports that the same setup doesn't work. It seems that it has to do with the firmware of the headunit of the CarK-91 (above K series works) and the maker of the pop-port adapter (I don't know the brand. Bought the adapter at Halfords in the Netherlands 2 years ago).

Problems Car-Kit CK-7W Bluetooth connection not st...

Hello,
I have the following problem :
I have in my Car a Nokia CK-7W Car-Kit. The phone i use is a Nokia N73 with the latest software 4.0736.3.2.1.
the only connection i use is the bluetooth i dont use the cable connection.
Verry often when i am calling someone the connection is suddenly not good anymore. there is suddenly a lot of noise so the person on the other side is just hearing noise and could not understand me anymore.
Calling again will not solve the problem they cant understand what i am saying.
The only solution is to turn the ignition key to 0 so the car-kit is turned off and then restart again.
Also has to power off the N73 and back on --> problem solved for a while.
I have tried with my older Phone Nokia 6280 there the problem is not the same. Sometimes it is also not good but not the same as with the N73.
With the 6280 i have also a different problem that it is not posible to disconnect the line when calling. so when i push the CK-7W button for a disconnect the line keeps open the only option is the read key on the phone.
So i dont know exacly what is defective , is it the car-kit or are both the phones not good.
Does anyone has the same problem.
Someone told me that it is because i have one of the first CD-7W car-kits so they have software that is to old. I dont think that it is normal that there are so much problems. They have told me that i have one of the first versions because my paing key is not 0000 but a nr in my case 1819.
When the CK-7W Module is defective , does anyone know if it is possibe that i just buy a Module without the other accessories.
Thanks for the advice.
DCA

Hello,
I can ubderstand if yo have installed more than 100 CK-7W that you are sure that the passcode must be 0000.
I am 100% sure that on my original box there is CK-7W and on the manual the passcode is 1819.
I have also a POP connector + cable (wich is not installed ) to connect the phone with cable. Has the CK-1W also this possibility ?
What i dont can see is the correct nr ont the main unit because it is stiil someware behind the dashboard.
The only think i can think of is that i have received a ck-1W like you told but is was in a CK-7W box. The manual deliverd was also CK-7W but the passcode was on a label that was put on the manual so they have the possibility to make a misttake.
I dont think that after +- 3 year i can go to Nokia an ask them for the correct one ?
So someone had made a mistake , maybe at Nokia or maybe in the shop. Why i dont know . the only thing i know is that i have a lot of problemens with this stupid thing.
If you have installed 100's of the CK-7W can you advice me if the stupid thing is working fine or that i be better of to buy another one ?
I only need a goed stable working Car-Kit not with display,....
Thanks
DCA

Iphone car kit echo problem

I have a Nokia CK-7W car kit installed in my car, has always worked seamlessly with a variety of cellphones ( nokia, sony etc ) - have just got the 8gb iphone in the UK and in the car it sounds great. However, whoever I'm calling complains of a bad echo on their end of the conversation. Turning the volume down in car helps subdue this but doesn't solve it....
Any ideas appreciated !

I think you could be on the right track Daan.
The problems I experienced with the CK-7W and Nokia 6300 (see earlier post above) seem to have been resolved with a Nokia software update for the 6300 (v 5.5), I read somewhere that the Nokia software update fixed a problem with the 6300 handset microphone staying active when connected to the CK-7W. All the echo problems seem to have stopped and callers agree the call quality is now improved.
I vaguely remember reading on these forums of someone reporting that adjusting the volume on the iPhone itself helped with echo problems.
Alternatively, have you tried turning down the speaker volume with the CK-7W control button when a call is active, this also may help.
I hope this is sorted for you soon, I know how frustrating these issues can be!!!

Car kit software updater

Can someone give me a definitive link to the car kit software updater? Looking on the support site I can’t find anywhere to download it. Also looking through these forums people have put links like http://europe.nokia.com/support/product-support/nokia-ck-200/car-kit-software which just links to
http://www.nokia.com/gb-en/support/
If there are different updaters for different versions mine is the CK-200.
I tried to use the Live Help but the help I got was less than helpful.
Regards
Chris

I'm having the same problem.
The Nokia sites, accross a number of countries, all draw blanks. Googling "car kit software" updater has results but they all lead nowhere. It's as if all the copies on the internet have been deleted.
Nokia support in Australia has been a frustrating and unfruitful exercise.
All help greatly appreciated :-)
