Hi,

My neighbour has just upgraded his phone.

He had a Nokia (maybe 6303) which worked fine with the car radio Bluetooth.

But we can't get the Samsung to 'pair' properly.

When searching with the phone - it does pick up Ford Audio.

When doing a search on the radio, it does show Samsung (along with old & mrs's phones).

But they will never connect or show that they are paired.

We haven't had the option of putting in a PIN that I would have expected. I'me sure that I've done everything in the Samsung book & the CDC6006 book - to noah vale !

Any idea please folks ?

I had the same trouble with a Samsung, eventually got it to pair but every time i turned off the ignition it turned of the link, so everytime I got into the car I had to re-connect it. Not ideal, so I sent it back and kept the old Nokia 6300 which does the job perfectly.

I found that once you have the phone ID entered into the menu,you have to save it to phone memory and do the same again before exiting.

I have a Samsung Galaxy S , i would debond all the other phones first and if its in the options show phone as visable then try again , My SGS picks up as soon as i turn the radio on or start the car .My Radio is different but when i added works Nokia .I had to remove my SGS first before it would find it , then i re-added the Samsung. Only difference now is if i require works Nokia then i have to select it from the menu but the Samsung will auto attach every time.Turn radio off for a minute or so when you debond the other phones then try and add the samsung.

Thanks folks,

Looks like clearing the memory/debonding all phones & trying the Samsung again,,,, then adding his wifes Nokia later.

Will post results here.

cheers

Well,,,, cleared the radio memory & the phone memory.

Tried pairing them again,,,, they still won't go,,,,

The older phones (deleted) will pair again, as normal.

I'm stumped.

any more ideas please ?

Mike ,Is the phone Visability set to Always On ? , then click the radio to sear , if you see ford paired on phone also click that at same time they should then see each other and ask for 4 digit code.
