Hi guys, been a while since posting I've got bluetooth issues whereby the car is not discoverable by any phone or vice versa, have tried the usual master reset etc anything else that has worked for anyone

    What model and year do you have [salvage doesn't really give to much of a clue]

    It's a sync 2 version 

     

    Is the module easily changed or tested ?

    Also I'm not sure of this is linked or not but pretty much everyday it comes up that it is carrying out essential maintenance

    On your model with Sync 2 as far as I know the bluetooth module is located above the glovebox. You will have to fully remove the glovebox and then look upwards under the dash.

    Do you have a part number for the module that I may require and can it be a straight swap without coding?

    Sorry don't know the part number (more than one type). They are just 'plug and play' no programming needed
