yes this is happening to me now...no charge in USB-c port.

 

Can you provide details on that upgrade to include in car wifi? Thats one thing I really want to do.

 

might be a different issue but, this happened to me months back. the backlighting on the panel would also flicker a little bit on vehicle startup.

anyway, i removed the panel & disconnected/reconnected the cable on the back. didn't help. then i did a hard reset of PIVO (hold volume button down for a long time until PIVO reboots) and that fixed my non working USB ports. problem hasn't come back since.

 

same issue ! Thank you for the fix !
works fine , no more problems

 

FYI JLR released a service bulletin on this for the Defenders and a few other vehicles... not sure if this is your issue but see attached.

Seems to be an issue when the illumination goes away on the 2 USB ports.

 

In my case I experienced both power interruptions and no port illumination and the fix for both was extremely easy !!!
System reset by long pressing the power button

 

Hi, I am working on a Velar with the same problem (USB not working and no illumination). I have tried pressing the volume button but to no avail. How long should I press it for as all it does is turn the media on or off. I have tried disconnecting the battery, but no change.

Cheers John

 

interested in this too. is the illumination something that is always on… or only at night with headlights?

for some reason i thought min used to always be illuminated, day and night.

will have to grab a cable and test if they are producing power.

 

also curious if the passenger side usb-c in the dash is supposed to illuminate. mine never has. it sure if that is normal or not.

 

Hi! No, I can confirm this does *not* illuminate. Wondered the same thing myself awhile back.
