kenny.c Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Well all the components of the sound system talk to each other by a type of CAN-BUS system.....there is likley to be either a genuine fault with one of the units....the main CD unit hidden behind the stereo buttons or the BT unit up behind the glovebox.....or a loose cable....id have a "fiddle" around and make sure all plugs are connected and fitted right.....

coysht Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 bluetooth module software fault. Disconnect the battery for a bit to reset it and if it happens again, take the car to Ford and get the software updated. You can also do this by pulling a fuse, but I could never find the right one. Disconnecting the battery will reset the mpg, trip etc on the dash and might loose the one-touch operation of the driver's window - but there is an easy procedure to get that back.

mark t Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Pulling the right fuse will reset the bluetooth, or debond, and rebond your phone. I had problems last thursday when my iPod didn't want to work, couldn't select the usb, all I was getting was aux and bluetooth streaming. What I did was to open the iphones music player in the car, which meant the car took over the sound, and completely locked the ipod, and it took ages to get it reset, but on reseting it, it all works again!

Nico. Posted February 6, 2011 Author Share Posted February 6, 2011 i might delve into the fuse box again later the only problem is last time i did i re-set !Removed! everything, not like it bothers me that much but the clock went trip computer and all that.... if i can find a how to solution on this i will put it on here for people :) might come in useful at time!!! the annoying bit is this has come all after i just fixed the 12v... couldn't be anything to do with using a Halfords fuse there could it??? its te same like to all accounts other than its working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
