Freaking life saver I've been dealing with this problem for a little while now and couldn't find any answers and this worked perfectly. Thanks for the help man🤙🏻

[@RktsledTv]

No problem

[@alinaelizondo6213]

Thank you so much for this. I just fixed my problem with sync allowing phone calls but not allowing audio to play on my 2011 ford Raptor. I was already gonna take it in and probably be charged $100. Thank you thank you!

[@RktsledTv]

Thanks for the comment. Glad it helped

[@BrianHammill]

Worked for me. Sync completely disappeared. Could not select anything from the AUX source. After doing this, my phone connects And I can play my music again through sync. This seems to be a notoriously buggy system. Make sure you do the firmware updates from a USB flash drive. That helped a lot.

You deserve everything good in life. Thank you for posting this. It worked perfectly. I’d also advice not to drop the fuse down the hole into the door like I did 😅 took lots of time and small hands to get it

No problem sometimes you have to unhook the battery if the fuse don’t work.

[@mikehotel3970]

I pulled my Ford radio out and threw it in the trash. Replaced it. FIXED, finally.

[@RktsledTv]

I guess that will work to thanks for the comment

[@ismaelzeleke9601]

It worked and was very easy. Thank you for the info.

[@RktsledTv]

No problem glad it helped

[@mcmoffitt]

Thanks for the video, tried the fuse truck, didn't work. Then disconnected the negative battery cable (10mm), cycled the ignition switch a couple of times to dump any capacitors and then re- connected the battery. Sync came back on line however, was acting a little off. We then performed a factory sync reset by holding the power and seek forward buttons for 10sec. Everything woking as of now. Thanks for the content.

[@RktsledTv]

Thanks for the comment. And the factory rest information.

[@JRansom02]

Only thing that's worked for me, thanks!

Thanks for the comment

[@georgia3596]

You can unhook your battery for 30 seconds and it will fix it also, it just worked for me thank god ! 2016 F-150

[@RktsledTv]

You can do that but you will lose all your radio stations. You should check the fuse first anyways before you go to the battery. Because If fuse is blown then unhooking the battery won’t work.

[@georgia3596]

Dennis Givens for some reason I didn’t loose my radio stations , my 2016 f-150 didn’t show a fuse labeled SNYC , that’s why I unhooked the battery, thanks for your help !

[@luciferslettuce]

rocknlb if this doesn''t work on my 2012 f150 could the module be bad?

[@RktsledTv]

+luciferslettuce not sure if the fuse isn't blown then it could be make sure there is no green stuff in the fuse box if there is you will want to clean it.or it could be a loose wire in the box.

I saw you pulled the #2 15 amp fuse out and put it back in what other fuse you pull out

[@RktsledTv]

That’s the only fuse I pulled its to the sync/ radio system. Thanks for the comment

[@shamelessone1987]

my 2011 has an aftermarket stereo. battery started dying overnight. mech said the sync is running all the time for some reason. if I disconnect the sync fuze will this cut it and eliminate my drain problem?

[@RktsledTv]

Not sure you could give it a try as long as the fuse is not used for another device on the vehicle

[@crisrivera3621]

Thank you!!!

[@RktsledTv]

No problem

[@RktsledTv]

That could be. That’s why I don’t like electrical work. All you can do is try to chase it back and check all connections. Sorry I couldn’t be more help

[@jaysanchez5244]

Good video but I wish you would show what kind of radio it is we all know that Ford has different kinds of radios

[@RktsledTv]

Ok I can do a short video of what radio unit it has. I have the standard radio.

[@panchovilla4223]

I dont know why you dont have more subscribers

[@RktsledTv]

Need to put more time in to videos. Don’t get paid for this so equipment is lacking

[@cbbenjamin5833]

How long would this take to start working? What if my 2011 Ford 150 is saying user device connect error -see dealer? @Rocketsled Videos

[@RktsledTv]

It worked on mine right away. I would try to unhook the battery if the fuse don’t work. And if your still having the error you might have to take it to the dealer.

[@cbbenjamin5833]

@Rocketsled Videos. I will try to unplug the battery ..thanks again..do you recommend I plug out the fuses again and plug out the battery?

[@RktsledTv]

It’s worth a shot. I would try both at the same time. I would give it a good 10 minutes make sure you unhook both battery cables. If your in a hurry you can take the unhooked battery cables and touch the engine block or bear metal somewhere on the vehicle. This will make sure all the cables are depleted of any voltage. Just make sure the battery is not connected to any of the cables when doing this.

[@cbbenjamin5833]

@Rocketsled Videos okay thanks..I will indeed try this today, will take out the fuse for a while and unplug the battery and see if it works

[@davidjsouth231]

Hopefully my 2011 Ford Taurus will work.

[@RktsledTv]

It should if not I would try unhooking the battery that works sometimes also.

[@rogerwaldrop8362]

Ive been doing this for along time

[@juancarlosmendez4943]

Thanks you

[@RktsledTv]

Thanks for the comment

[@612jdawg]

Any idea as to why when I accidentally shut off the radio and quickly turned it back on the radio lost sound and little smoke came out above the radio? Also I didn't have sound after that and radio lit up as working but my battery was completely dead 2 days later and idk what it could be

[@RktsledTv]

Sounds like the radio shorted out. Sounds like you might have to replace it. A junkyard would be the cheapest way to replace it or you can go aftermarket. The short could be drawing power from the battery. Thanks for the comment.

[@RktsledTv]

I have no idea why it would happen. But what ever did happen I would say it’s staying on and draining the battery. I would unplug the radio and see if the battery stays charged if it does the radio is staying on and draining the battery

[@alyssastout6078]

This only fixed mine for one time use 🥺 I’m at a loss of what to do next.

[@RktsledTv]

I would unhook the battery. For 30 minutes. Both positive and negative side. If you don’t have time for that after you unhook them and touch both positive and negative wires to the body of the car . To bleed of the electric form the wires

[@RickWilleyOMC]

Didn't work for me! But I just pulled fuses # 2 & 13. I have a 09 King Ranch so I'll check the manual & try again. I get no connection code no matter WHAT I do!!

[@RktsledTv]

Did you try to unhook the battery if the fuse don’t work I would try that if that don’t take care of it. You might have to check fuse box for green corrosion.

[@staynavytom2963]

You did not start the truck with the fuse out. Another KZbinr started his truck and ran it for about a minute. Thoughts? I pulled the fuse plus I disconnected the ground on the battery and left everything off for several minutes. Nothing changed on my Sync.

[@michaellifefacts7869]

Mine works when it wants to literally. I have no idea what to do..it charges my phone but about 1/10 times it’ll play music

[@RktsledTv]

I would try to unhook the battery for 30 minutes. If the fuse doesn’t work if not might be a dealer fix. Thanks for the comment

[@khaos10k]

So my bluetooth works but its not recognizing pandora ..

[@RktsledTv]

I would try unhooking the battery. Sometime the fuse don’t always work

[@antonioalcocer5181]

Thanks man. I have another issue with my f150. The cargo area lights are not working. I already check the fuses and they are ok..... what I else can do??

[@RktsledTv]

If it’s not the fuse it’s probably the bulb. Depending on the year. On the passenger side there is a wire under the kick panel they used bad tape. I would only check that if the bulbs are good.

I have a 2010 ford expedition limited and i did this it didnt work. My phone connects via bluetooth with calling but not audio media. Also i tried the aux cable put it on the proper settings for aux that doesn't work either. I loaded music onto a stick drive that wont work either. Only way to play music is through jukebox or cd. Please Help.

[@RktsledTv]

Have you tried unhooking the battery? Sometimes the fuse don’t always work. If not try that you will have to take both cables off the battery. You can wait 30 minutes and hook it back up. If you don’t have that much time for that take both battery cable when they are unhooked form the battery and hold them together for 30 seconds to clear all the residual power in the cables.

[@greaterthings5652]

@@RktsledTv i work offshore and something was running my battery down and my truck would be dead by time i got off the boat. So i was unhooking my battery for 2 weeks at a time i did try the bluetooth since then after factory resetting the sync. And it still didnt work.

Not to ask a dumb question. But on my truck I have to select Bluetooth audio in the menu. Under select source? Mine won’t work unless I do that before I start driving.

So I’ve been doing this in my 11 F150 for two years but at best it works for a month, at worst it works for a day. Anybody know a permanent fix?

[@RktsledTv]

I’ve only had to do it once. That was 4 years ago. So I think you might have to have the dealer look at it or try a new fuse or make sure there are no green crap in due to moisture in the fuse box. I would use a pipe cleaner to clean the contacts thanks for the comment

[@joehoule1204]

Maybe try a bigger fuse

I try many times in my f150 2011 and it didn't work 😢. What should I do?

[@RktsledTv]

Did you unhook the battery. Unhook both cables and touch the cables some where on the body of the truck. If that don’t work might be something a dealer might have to fix. I would check the comments I think there is a way to rest sync. But haven’t had to use it myself. Hope this helps. I think the rest instructions are in your owners manual.

[@giovannirenteria3630]

My Bluetooth connects but won’t play audio what can I do it’s 2011 king ranch 350

[@RktsledTv]

If you tried the fuse and it didn’t help I would unhook both wires from the batteries and take the positive and negative wires to the chassis for about 30 seconds. This will clear any power from the system. And should rest everything. If pulling the fuse don’t work.

[@RktsledTv]

If that don’t work not sure. What the issue would be. Unless it’s a issue with the radio it’s self

Looks like you need to try to unhook the battery. For about 30 minutes and see if that will work. If that don’t work then it will need looked at by the dealer thanks for the comment
