750T Crashes on using Bluetooth after using GC Live service

I Have started to use the 750T again, along side my GPS 66st
It has been updated to the latest software 5.9 and Topo maps
I connect to an iPhone 11 via Blue tooth and the Garmin connect App
I have got the Live GC search working including panning to a wider area and the GC's appear and are downloaded .
However in a short time the unit shuts down
I have changed batteries so no problems there I think
If I reboot in BT mode , the previously found GC are there but the unit still shuts down
When I shut off Blue tooth the unit works fine
Has anyone else found this problem and perhaps a solution
Thanks
Mike

Sounds like an issue isolated to the iPhone, as I have not heard of anything like this with other devices. I know Android and iOS handle Bluetooth much differently. Is your iPhone 11 running the latest version of iOS? Which version?

I am using Ios 14.6 the latest
I have re-paired the device. Still the same
It loads the Live GC ok but as soon as you zoom the map or pan, down it goes in seconds
I have done a video but it will not upload. It is in .mov format
I will persevere

Can you disable Bluetooth and repeat test using wi-fi?

The answer was yes
But
Since then it has all gone wrong!
It is paired to Garmin connectand connected to wifi
So I thought I would reregister the device at GCing
So I deregistered
That was ok
I zapped the authorization on my GC account/ ok
Turned off the device and tried to re-register
It is not giving me a Registration code now !
Tried everything!

So
Sorry for the Aggravation
It is all back now having Syncd via Base camp
Device registered and it will find live GC without crashing via Wifi
Put it on to Blue tooth via iPhone it crashed almost immediately having found some Gc
??? Where do I go from here please , any suggestions

Now you need to find a friend with an Android device you can temporarily sync it to via Bluetooth and retest once more.
This will help narrow down the issue between the GPSr or Phone.
