Thanks for the video! We got our Tourneo Custom (Europe) this week and couldn't figure out how to connect with Android Auto. Now it's working!

@CarsWithSteve 2 года назад

That’s great Sven and hi from across the pond! How are you enjoying the Tourneo so far?

@svendeckers1964 2 года назад

@@CarsWithSteve Quite happy so far, thanks! It has actually been converted by Allied Mobility (a company in the UK, I live in Belgium) into a car you can roll a wheelchairs in (my wife's in this case). Quite the improvement over our old Ford Fusion, in which we had to transfer her manually. Still, it doesn't feel like I'm driving a van at all.

If I wasn't given any radio options and nievely assumed sat nav would be part of the radio regardless considering the cost of a new transit. Can sat nav be added to the radio after or is it going to be big bucks and a new radio? Van is only 4 weeks old, feel like I been cheated.

@CarsWithSteve 2 года назад

It's unfortunate that it's not included but if you have the larger Sync3 screen like in this video you could hook up Android Auto/Apple Car Play. The whole screen has to be replaced and reprogrammed so it would be $1,200 or so through a dealer to get it done

@jasonthross1982 2 года назад

Having a nightmare with using Android Auto with my system. Boots ups now problem when connected via USB cable, however it then kicks out the Android Auto features after a few seconds and back to the standard features

@CarsWithSteve 2 года назад

I'd try starting with an upgrade to the Sync system to ensure it's running the latest version. Make sure your phone operating system is up to date as well. If those first two don't work try a new USB cable and if none of those things work book in a service appointment!

@MindsEyeVisualGuitarMethods 2 года назад

I heard you can swap this out but only if your vehicle already has sync 3. I think my unit is the basic model that has a rectangle with a line in it where the sync button should be.

@CarsWithSteve 2 года назад

If you've got the base Sync screen you could get a Sync3 screen added in - it's a bit pricey but not impossible to do

@bcstaff 2 года назад

Do you have details on upgrading with basic?

@benlugo1110 10 месяцев назад

Where can I buy this screen? I only see one site that sells it but doesn’t look like the same graphics in the video

@CarsWithSteve 10 месяцев назад

You can try Infotainment - carswithsteve.com/Infotainment - they might have them available. Other option would be to check out some local salvage yards

@edigamingro9458 8 месяцев назад

Is wireless also an option or is wired the only option with apple car play/android auto?

@CarsWithSteve 8 месяцев назад

Only wired inside of the Sync3 system unfortunately

@MrDallasboy33 2 года назад

I deleted the CarPlay in accident is there anyway I can install that back

@CarsWithSteve 2 года назад

Once you hook the phone up again it should prompt you to allow CarPlay. If it doesn’t then disconnect your phone from the USB cable and on your phone go to Settings -> General -> CarPlay Then select your vehicle and press forget this car If that doesn’t work you can remove the phone from the Sync3 screen and then reconnect. It should prompt you from there

My 2020 Ford transit connect usb port not charging and connecting Android and apple phones.

@CarsWithSteve 2 года назад

First thing to try would be an Apple or Android branded cable. If that doesn’t work then book it in for a service appt - there could be something up with a fuse or module

@ticynteegardin788 Год назад

Will this work on a connects

@CarsWithSteve Год назад

It will! Here's one on the Transit Connect specifically you can also check out: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-3sFztcJvX58.html

@SychoAirsoftSquad Год назад

Why does CarPlay disconnect every time I unplug the phone the Bluetooth is connected

@CarsWithSteve Год назад

The screen in this vehicle only supports a wired connection for Android Auto and Apple CarPlay so you need to stay connected to use them

@brenbren9551 7 месяцев назад

Great video... I have a problem i cannot solve. Everything is turning on but radio is not working. Everything else is working. Parking Sensors started making a really weak beep sound but still work, then radio stopped and wont come back on. Sreen says audio off. Any idea's? Ive reset system and still the same.

@CarsWithSteve 7 месяцев назад

Have you tried pressing the volume rocker button in? That's the only way you'd be able to toggle the audio system on or off

@brenbren9551 7 месяцев назад

@@CarsWithSteve Hi. Yes I've tried that. Nothing happens at all. I had a look at the bass/treble settings and everything's gone to the right-hand side. Its Very strange

@CarsWithSteve 7 месяцев назад

Few things you could try... Go to Settings --> Manage Apps. Click on Spotify and look for Autostart, there should be an option to "Allow the app to be started by other apps" If that doesn't work, I have a video showing how to enable developer mode and allowing unknown sources. It's for Waze specifically but it should also give Spotify as an option once it's set up ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-K2PMtdje3m0.html

@@MrFatboy192 The icon may not necessarily show in the tray if a phone hasn't been connected via Android Auto yet. Try switching to the other USB port - I found on the 2022 Ranger that Android Auto only worked on the right port for some reason

Try changing the playback speed to 0.75x - you can find it in the little settings icon on the bottom right side of the screen. I find people who have trouble keeping up find that playback speed to be perfect
