Adamsde Posted July 20, 2017 Report Share Posted July 20, 2017 Hey everyone! So I have a 2013 dodge Journey SXT 2.4L.I noticed this morning when I plug in my phone charger in the center console the screen in the dash says "can not read usb device" anyone had this happen all of a sudden?

jkeaton Posted July 20, 2017 Report Share Posted July 20, 2017 Mine only works every now and then. I don't use it anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianS Posted July 20, 2017 Report Share Posted July 20, 2017 Are you using the same cable that you used in the past? Some phone cables are better than others.. and if they are one of the cheaper ones. the contacts can get sloppy. jkeaton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfurth Posted July 20, 2017 Report Share Posted July 20, 2017 Even my old dumb phone had issues with that USB port. I ended up putting a flash drive in it with music (works great!) and have a 12V charger in the port in the console. I switched the fuse for that port so that it is on only when the ignition is in ACC or Run. Everything stays plugged in, no power drain, I stopped worrying about it. jkeaton and PitCarver 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrianS Posted July 22, 2017 Report Share Posted July 22, 2017 Well, I guess that takes care of that. We use Samsung Notes at work, and they get plugged and unplugged so often the plug gets all loose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamsde Posted July 22, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2017 I tried my husband's new s8 plug and his says it as well.would it make a difference knowing the kiddos tv is plugged into the 12v plug in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
