Welcome to Drop It Like It’s Scott, your go-to channel for gun range gun reviews and encouraging thoughts. In this video, we’re taking a break from our usual content to address a common issue that many Ford Sync system users face - Bluetooth connectivity problems. If you own a Ford vehicle and have experienced difficulties with the Sync system disconnecting your phone and Bluetooth, you’ve come to the right place. Today, I’ll walk you through the steps to fix this issue and get your Sync system up and running smoothly again. Let’s dive in!
Step 1: Accessing the Menu Begin by locating the menu button on your Ford vehicle’s interface. Press the menu button to access the Sync system options.
Step 2: Navigating to Bluetooth Settings Once in the menu, navigate to the Sync media tab. Selecting the media tab will open up a submenu. Scroll down and choose “system settings” followed by “Bluetooth devices.”
Step 3: Resetting Bluetooth Within the Bluetooth devices menu, scroll further down until you come across the option called “advanced prompts.” Ignore this option and continue scrolling until you reach “factory defaults.” Selecting factory defaults will reset your Bluetooth settings to their original factory state.
Step 4: Master Reset If the issue persists after resetting to factory defaults, proceed to the next step. Scroll down and select “master reset.” Confirm your selection, and this will reset your entire Bluetooth system.
Step 5: Rebooting the Sync System Once the master reset is complete, locate the option called “Sync reboot.” Selecting this will reboot your entire Sync system.
Step 6: Reactivating Bluetooth After the reboot is finished, return to the main menu and navigate back to the Sync media tab, followed by the media settings submenu. Scroll down to “Bluetooth devices” and select “add Bluetooth device.” This will prompt the system to search for available devices.
Step 7: Pairing your Phone Now that your Sync system is reset and rebooted, you can proceed with adding your phone as a Bluetooth device. Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the pairing process.
Congratulations! You’ve successfully resolved the Bluetooth connection issues with your Ford Sync system. Your phone should now be connected seamlessly, allowing you to enjoy the convenience of hands-free calling and audio streaming while on the road.
