I've encountered this issue before and the solution was to disconnect the car's battery. Here's the steps to do it: 1. Turn off your car's engine. 2. Locate the battery - it's usually under the hood. 3. Disconnect the negative terminal first by loosening the clamp with a wrench. 4. Then disconnect the positive terminal. 5. Wait for at least 10 minutes. 6. Reconnect the positive terminal first. 7. Then reconnect the negative terminal. 8. Start your car and try pairing your new phone again. This should reset the Bluetooth system and allow you to pair with your new device.
