Hi there!

We have had a 2006 S-Max Titanium X since 2007. It has the DVD based Colour Touchscreen Sat Nav with Bluetooth installed.

This has been working very well since we got it and we have connected all of our phones to it with no problems.

A few days ago my wife received a call on her phone while in the car and only then noticed that it didn't come through the car stereo as it has for the last five years.

On the screen she then noticed that the Phone on-screen button had simply disappeared. Pressing the Phone hard button above the stereo simply mutes the stereo.

Where has our Bluetooth gone and how do we re-enable it?

Any ideas?

cheers
Mark

I would try disconnecting the battery for a while and then reconnecting to see if that resets it.

the bluetooth moduile is fitted behind the glovebox and not actually part of the stereo itself so their may also be a lose connection between the stereo and the moduile since the stereo doesnt know the bluetooth moduile/feature exists recently since its not displaing any of the bluetooth functions.

Hi Guys,

thanks for this. I found the fuses for the radio (not sure if I needed both) and disconnected them for a while.

However, when I plugged them back in, the stereo wanted a PIN code. Should have read the manual! Looked everywhere through all my documentation and could not find it.

Will have to call the dealer today and see where it would have been written. For my other car, I have a little card with it written and it is also written in the front of the service book. But not here!

cheers
Mark
