This was able to resolve my issue in the 2015 Ford F-150 XLT I use, thank you! My issue was where as soon as I played any audio through my phone (KZfaq, Spotify, etc.), SYNC would not only not play the audio, but then also say the Bluetooth device was disconnected after a second - rinse and repeat

Great! It is super frustrating when our technology lets us down! I’m glad the video helped.

Another method is to press both the radio power button and the right search arroy for about 5-10 seconds. A message will appear advisinv of sync reset. Turn off the vehicle for a couple of minutes then turn it back on. Wait a couple of minutes for Sync to re-initialize.

Did your issue ever resolve? Someone else in the comments recommended this additional step : (Press both the radio power button and the right search arroy for about 5-10 seconds. A message will appear advisinv of sync reset. Turn off the vehicle for a couple of minutes then turn it back on. Wait a couple of minutes for Sync to re-initialize.)

When I went to check on the passenger fuse box for my Ford Focus 2015, the fuse for the radio frequency receiver does not have one, so does that mean I am missing it or is the problem something else. Because before my phone would connect but now the SYNC name doesn’t appear as a Bluetooth device on my phone anymore.

Didn’t work. Same problem, sync won’t even let me go into setting, seems to have trouble even I initializing. Media button does nothing. I wonder if I need to update the software?
@MrFredsDIY3 ай бұрын
Sometimes leaving the fuse out for a period of time while you drive the vehicle will allow it to reboot. Good luck!

@marcwheels1873 did you find a fix? My media button in my 2016 Ford Fusion won't work either. I push it, and it goes right back to radio.
@marcwheels18732 ай бұрын
I need to try leaving the fuses out for longer I guess. Nothing has worked so far.

The fact that you have to pull a fuse to get your Bluetooth to work says how garbage Ford is!!!

Sync is "powered by microsoft", They don't build the radio, just like any other manufacturer, they assemble "globally sourced" parts.

Sometimes you have to pull the fuse and start the vehicle and let it run for a few minutes. Turn the vehicle off and wait five or 10 minutes before putting the fuse back in. that method has worked for some folks.
