Put in a USB A to USB C adapter for my flash drive just the other evening. No probs.
Can't see how or why a USB C to USB A adapter would not perform exactly the same way.

Perfect thank you. I found one in my old cell phone box the other day and said to myself, maybe I could use that. I believe I am all ready now for my truck, whenever that will be.

I can't get my Motorola ma1 to go into Bluetooth pairing mode no matter what I do. I've tried the included instructions, factory resetting the moto, and other tips I found online.
No matter what, it just blinks green rather than blue. So I can't connect my phone to the Moto via Bluetooth and continue the setup.
Any ideas??

There was a YouTube video I saw a few weeks back that said something about hoe to reset the device. I'll see if I can find it. It may help.

Thanks. I've tried to reset it multiple times with that method though but it never blinks blue afterwards to let me pair via Bluetooth. I think I may have a dud

This happens to me if I don't use the same exact USB outlet that I establish the Android Auto connection first. Or if I establish AA connection through the cord and switch too fast. I need to let AA connect through the cord and at least 30 seconds before unplugging. If I don't do that, it never turns blue flashing.
Gotcha. Well I'll tinker with it a bit more and if I can't get it to work, I'll send it back to Amazon. Fortunately I also have aawireless. I tried that for the first time this morning, and fingers crossed, it seems to work just fine so far

Setup and worked right out of the box. Great product.
Only negative. The sticky pad they gave me refuses to stay stuck to the car. I'll have to find a good 3M tape for that.

When using AA it is using your phones data but at the same time if you are paired to the cars wifi it should run off that. You may have to check your usage rates to verify.

Thank you. Very helpful info.
I am having a tough time getting this tray to release/pull out. Feels like I am about to snap the plastic. Do you (or anyone) remember how exactly you got it to release?I've got a solution for the Motorola (or any of the other wireless dongles) and what to do with it, stick where?
I was messing around with my USB port and put a little pressure on it and pop, out it came! This was awesome because I could see who it plugs in. If you unplug the wire to the USB port you have a MINI USB Male connection. If you buy this dongle from amazon (https://amz.run/5IYn) for $7 (free prime shipping) you have all you need to make it all disappear.
Pictures are worth 1000 words so here goes...
Only down side is the USB A port is now dead and unusable. That said the USB-C is fully functional.
I tried a USB C to Mini USB as I was able to get one in one day, didn't work. ( using for a car play dongle ). Ordered the exact adapted you linked to try when it arrives Tuesday. Either way, thanks for a write up. If I am successful I will do one for the Carplay adapter.
I put both palms upward on either side, put a moderate amount of pressure, and used the friction to press up and pull out. Came out no issues for me.
That did the trick, thanks! Noticed those USB ports weren’t working at all and, sure enough, there are no cables hooked up to them at all. Would be a quick fix before taking it to the dealer for the official part/fix (which I see in other threads that the part is on back order), but I can’t tell where the other end of the USB cables connect to above. Oh well.
