Quick way to reconnect CarPlay

As most know, when Apple CarPlay disconnects it is because of the lost Wi-Fi connection on the BMW side and to reconnect you turn off BMW Wi-Fi and then turn it back on.

The "trick" I learned from another post is you can program one of the radio buttons to do this. Navigate to the Wi-Fi menu, then hold the button you want to program. The button will then toggle between turning off Wi-Fi and turning it back on.

So when I lose CarPlay I tap Button 1 (the one I choose to program), wait a couple of seconds and tap it again. CarPlay comes back up in about 30 seconds or so.

Hope this helps someone
