How To SOFT Reset your SYNC 3 System | Better Than MASTER Resetting Your SYNC 3 System

- Опубликовано: 8 фев 2025
- Sync 3 system for Ford vehicles is a great infotainment system. However, issues arise and soft resetting your Sync 3 system can take care of these problems.
Most videos suggest performing a Master reset on your Sync 3 system which erases everything from your Sync 3 system. Performing a Soft Reset on your Sync 3 can help eliminate that.
I highly suggest trying the soft reset on your SYNC 3 system if you are experiencing problems before you Master Reset the Sync 3 system.

Radio wasn't working, with your help, now it does! Thank you!!
Thank you I’m glad my video was helpful! Enjoy the car
SYNC gives me attitude sometimes when i plug in my iPhone. The Soft reset definitely helps.
Yup I definitely have that issue occasionally. Tech is such a blessing and curse lol
My screen wouldn’t turn off or unfreeze. This saved me so much time. Thanks
Glad it was helpful! Helps with car play issues too
Thanks Bro. Fixed my issues that had me about to lose some sleep.
You’re welcome! Glad it helped you out
Get to the point!!!!
Lol I did 😂
@@Red5ohdefinitely did not.
yes get on with it!
WOOHOO!!! Got a 2020 Ford Explorer XLT that for some reason during my connecting/disconnecting and Android Auto initializing, made my SYNC 3.4 screen slam lock up!!! 😳 Did a soft reset by simultaneously holding down the "volume/power" button and the skip track button "⏭️" ...seemed like it took about 10 seconds to go into reboot, but it worked!!! Thanks a Bunch!!! 😁👍🏻
You’re welcome! I’m glad my video was able to help you out! I’ve got other sync tutorials such as accessing hidden sync menu which lets you customize themes.
It worked. Awesome!!! Thanks man. Fixed my misses.
Glad it worked for you! Definitely an easy fix for most problem with sync system
Fixed my blower fan. Thank you.
Glad it helped!
My Sync was acting up, none of the software buttons would do anything and it would just sit there loading on the right side over and over. Did this and it reset and went back to functional. Thanks a lot! 2020 Fusion Hybrid btw.
Glad the video was helpful and helped your Sync issues! I’ve got a lot of videos on sync system such secret menu and changing themes if you want to check it out
Works on Fiesta ST as well. Good info to know. Kudos mate. Cheers.
That’s awesome glad my video was helpful!
This worked for me!
(2023 Explorer)
That’s great! Fixes most of the issues with our sync issues
What problems where you having ? I have a 23 aswell and my updates don’t update wirelessly, hoping this fixes that
i appreciate you bro really you save my money really thnx again bro 🔥💯💯✅
You’re welcome! Glad my video was helpful
Spot on.!!!
Thanks!
My Bronco Sport went crazy one day. All sorts of error messages were popping up and a red exclamation mark in a circle would appear on the center display. Also the LED in the PRND selector knob was blinking. The car would not start and the doors would not remain locked. Luckily this reset got it going again.
I’m glad the video was so helpful for you and fixed the issues. It’s really odd that led on PRND was blinking and reset helped with it but glad it’s fixed now!
Can you help me with a problem. My iPhone is linked multiple times with my for edge 2019 I have tried the factory reset and it hasn’t cleared the 6 times it has linked too sync. I can’t get my text messages from my edge which has always worked prior too having it linking the same phone 6 times. Appreciate your videos which is where I got the master reset from.
Instant fix. Thanks so much!
You’re welcome glad it was helfpul
If you hold the "next track" button on your steering wheel and "next track" button on your dash (simultaneously) for 3-5 seconds, you can access the "Ford Test Settings" menu & you can change your Sync display theme to a ton of different vehicle types, like: Ford GT (a sleek racing theme), Raptor, Shelby, RS, ST, Mustang, Lincoln Black (for a gold luxury theme), and a few more.
@@anthonyvillania yeah it’s really cool to be accessing all the cool themes. I have a video on that as well where I show all the themes!
Hi There great video do you think this will stop music intermittently jumping ipod wired in (genuine apple cable) or usb stick it only happens for a second and is really inconsistent
thanks
It’s worth a shot! Its solved my car play issues so I’m sure it can help with that
@@Red5oh Hi There and thanks for the reply i tried it twice this week and it still jumps now and again (intermittently)
Ive done master resets too and is there anything else I can do because I don’t want to send it into a garage just in case it gets damaged as my car is only a month old. I’ve had a look on forums and they say that it’s a common thing with sync 3.4 and there’s nothing you can do.
I’ve tried a USB instead of my iPod and that hasn’t made any difference either
Also, I wonder if you have a solution for this?
My playlist on my iPod are more than 500 songs each. When I click on a playlist it says 500 songs and doesn’t show the rest. For example hip-hop has over 2000
But if I press play, all, it shows every song which 9000+
Thanks in advance
Great video
Thank you!
Someone reply to this pls!!!
When I start my car in the morning the screen don’t come on, then I’ll drive for like 45 minutes. Turned off the car and back on then it comes back on. Some days it won’t even come on until I restart the car 4 times.
I have always wondered how to get AA restarted while driving. I always stopped and completely turned the car off, lol.
Thank you....
Yeah this should help to reset and solve any AA issues!
Love your tint. Who did it?
It was a local shop. Just a regular 20% tint
@@Red5oh 20%? Looks darker 😎 I’m nervous to get mine tinted, everyone is getting bubbles in their tint
@@Red5oh also, I started with a soft reset and ended up doing a master 😅, because my car is base model, and the display has, like, 5 options 😂, but she rumbles and is also race red:)))))
Thank you a lot🔥
Glad it was helpful!
I have gps issues and fixed, thanx
I am glad the video helped you out!
Thank you !
You’re welcome! I hope the video was helpful
The soft reset work; however, I can’t seem to get to work my navigation apple app. So frustrating.
The Apple car play of cars navigation? I’d try the master reset
Help! I have my iPhone linked 6 times with my Ford Edge 2019, don’t ask me how because I don’t have a clue 😳. I know how too soft reset and I tried factory reset which hasn’t worked either. I can’t get my text messages which I’m thinking that’s maybe because it is linked 6 times. Appreciate your videos.
You should be able to remove the phone from "phone" tab. I would start by deleting all the phones then pair it as if it was a new phone.
How did you adjust the brightness
It's in the settings
on the left side of your steering wheel
Thanks!!
Glad it was helpful!
Will this help with callers complaining of echoing on their end?
That might be a mic issue but doesn’t hurt to try it out
What if my screen is black
I would unplug the battery in that case
My 2020 mustang premium navigation will just move by itself when I’m not driving how do I fix this problem?
Try doing a master reset. In my mustang I have gps too but no issues typically
I can’t get ford pass to connect to my new 2020 mustang I bought this week. Any idea? It refuses to connect to my app
What error are you getting? I would try redownloading the app and trying again
@@Red5oh FordPass customer service is saying I need to update to the newest sync to get it to work and when I tried the usb method it says installation failed because of the hardware not matching the sync system or something like that. I’m tired of dealing with it and decided to give up trying. Sync works when I’m driving I just can’t use FordPass so oh well. Guess I’ll deal without
Thankyou 🙏🏼
You’re welcome! Hope it was helpful!
I have a 2018 f150 and I’ve did the soft reset took battery cable off and just did master reset and I still have issues with screen freezing. Any other suggestions?
Those are usually the common things I’d suggest battery and master reset. Maybe leave battery off overnight to let the systems reset? Is it still under warranty?
@@Red5oh It’s under the extended warranty now.
@@gregsmith983 yeah they should be able to fix it for free then
@@Red5oh Thanks for responding back. I will check with the dealer.
My mustang all of a sudden got loud while i was driving and its now making a white noise even when the car is off.
Disconnect the battery for few minutes and see if that fixes it
Bro my mustang have off problem radio not work what problem
Try doing the master reset instead of soft reset. It should fix it
@@Red5oh I did da reast no benifit
@@Red5oh how is master reaest tell me
@@umarsajan5454 I have a video on it. Check it out on my Channel!
What if you have no use of the screen itself
I don’t think you can completely turn it off
Holy shit that works, thanks!
I’m glad it was helpful!
LOL, this video schloud be max 1 minute long :P
Lol seems to be helping people out regardless
@@Red5oh yes you help thx for this, only video was to long. ✌
Eh didn't help. Literally can't get it to remove a Bluetooth device on my 2019 Fusion. I've tried master reset as well.
I would unplug the battery for 10-15 mins to reset the system if master and soft reset aren’t doing anything
Thank you fr I can't stand the radio lol I need bluetooth
Lol hopefully it helped!
@@Red5oh it did thank you
