You might have to **rotate the Power plug** to have a connection. Do not mix 5A cable and 3A cable for PD, this can cause your 3A cable to fail if pulling too much current. #### Commonly Asked Questions **Will it work on iPhone 15/16 with USB-C?** Through other user test and support, USB-C iPhone will work but require some additional connection. You will need: + [Apple USB-C to lightning cable](https://www.amazon.com/Apple-MUQ93AM-A-USB-C-Lightning/dp/B0CX22JSR3?th=1) (C91) or [3rd party MFi certified USB-C to lightning cable](https://www.amazon.com/Lightning-Delivery-Charging-Certified-iPhone14/dp/B0CDFHPXNF) (C94). + [Apple USB-C to lightning adapter](https://www.amazon.com/Apple-USB-C-to-Lightning-Adapter/dp/B0CHX5RZ8M). It is importance to use Apple genuine adapter. 3rd party adapter will not provide good charging rate. ![](https://i.imgur.com/mIjkOwa.png "enter image title here") **Which AndroidAuto wireless adapter will work?** We have had positive report on AAWireless which has USB-C input. No USB-A wireless adapter has been tested or report working from our customers. **Why I got slow charge or no charge at all?** Try to rotate the power USB-C head by 180 degree at the adapter. Also make sure that you are using USB-C to USB-C for all cables. USB-A will not work in this application. ![Customer Photo](https://github.com/CentyLab/PicoPD/assets/156563029/c8adf5ac-ff0a-4dc1-9afe-68b6aaf107ee) **Customer Designed Case** - [Case with flanges ](https://makerworld.com/en/models/2932113-usb-c-splitter-androidauto-carplay-mountable) ![casewithfang](https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/model/DSM00000002932113/design/c4360fb993939fdd.jpg?x-oss-process=image/resize,w_1000/format,webp "enter image title here") ## Shipping policy Ship from our warehouse in China.
