The Sync4 media screen is excellent. It features an enhanced voice assistant, connected navigation, wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay and more! The screen is optional in the 2022/2023 Transit and it's an option I think you should definitely consider.
In this video you're going to learn all about the new Sync4 screen. I cover off how to connect a phone, use factory navigation, move through the settings and everything in between.

Thanks for the video. I have a 2023 Transit with sync 4, is there a way to keep the rear camera on all the time? If not would it be possible to replace camera with one connected to separate monitor and use power from original camera to new camera.

@CarsWithSteve Год назад

You're welcome! I wish there was a way to enable a feature like that.. unfortunately it's only available at low speeds. No option for a customer placed camera in the Transit either.. I'd recommend reaching out to Ford directly and request the feature for a user installed camera. It's available in the F150 so it should be an easy add for them

If your screen has the button with a little screen icon with the line through it yours won't be able to support Sync3.. if it has the 6 dots it would. Check this video out: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pzi839ivBWc.html

How do I reset the screen if it freezes?

@CarsWithSteve 8 месяцев назад

Assuming you have this same screen.. On the steering wheel press and hold the volume down and right seek buttons for 10 seconds. If you have the last gen Sync 3 screen, press and hold the power button (in the volume nob) and the right seek buttons for 10 seconds

@pedromoxey6840 Год назад

How do you put google maps into full screen mode. Because it stays in split screen. I think it’s in the car settings

@CarsWithSteve Год назад

If yours has support for full screen when connected: Apple CarPlay - the full screen button will be on the top left, just under the home screen icon. It's right above your phone time and battery percentage, and has 2 diagonal arrows. Android Auto - the full screen button is on the top right, just to the left of the outside temperature. You need to go full screen Android auto or Apple CarPlay to get full screen Google Maps, Apple Maps or Waze. If your screen doesn't have those full screen buttons you wouldn't be able to go full screen

@TurnerMobileDetailing 5 месяцев назад

Hey nice video! I have this van, and I like a nice bright screen. My problem is that it puts limits on how bright I can make it during certain ambient light conditions. Any idea on how to remove the brightness limitations?

@CarsWithSteve 5 месяцев назад

Thanks Turner! Under Settings --> Display if your screen brightness is already turned up as high as it'll go, try taking the display out of Auto mode - put it in Day/Night permanently instead so that the van doesn't try to auto adjust

@TurnerMobileDetailing 5 месяцев назад

@@CarsWithSteve⁠I think I’ve tried that but I can try again. The problem is that I had my windshield tinted with a clear but high UV rejection film, and I think the ambient light sensor thinks it’s darker than it actually is and auto-dims the screen for low light conditions, and I can’t manually turn the brightness back up. I’ll try keeping it set to day tomorrow and let you know how it goes.

I may have missed it, but how do you turn off the screen? I drive the Ford Transit as an ambulance and when we post, it would be nice to have the screen turn off. Thank you!

@CarsWithSteve Год назад

Hey Michael! 2 possible locations to turn the screen off.. First one is covered off around the 20:00 mark of the video under Settings -- > Display -- > Calm Screen - doesn't turn it off completely but will just show the date/time. If your Transit doesn't have the 360 camera there's also a button to the right of the volume rocker just under the screen that would turn it off too 👊keep up the great work!

@robertb2468 6 дней назад

How are you able use defrost , heat, fan and all the other hvac function too if and when the screen just stops working someday ? Those can be life saving in the cold regions.

If you press the "Off" button in the middle of the minus and plus it should pull up a slider that you can move up and down. Other option would be to press the voice command prompt on the right side of the steering wheel and say what you want the temp set to

Hey is it possible to have Android auto on the full screen instead of a split screen?😊

@CarsWithSteve Год назад

Some Sync4 screens have the fullscreen Android Auto and Apple CarPlay update. If yours has it.. start up Android Auto on the Sync4 screen. Check on the top right hand side of the screen and you should see an icon with 2 arrows facing away and pointing to corners. Press that! If the arrows aren't there, yours doesn't support fullscreen yet..

Make sure that your phone is up to date.. Press "Phone" on the media screen and then pull up bluetooth on your phone. If it's saying that there are no connections, turn off bluetooth on your phone and turn it back on again. I find that Android devices sometimes take a bit longer to recognize the connection than iPhones

@@CarsWithSteve ac auto button has 3 Levels. Usually it is just auto on or off.

OHH.. yeah it's an odd setting. The different levels on the auto button are for controlling the blower motor speed. So the vehicle would still control the temp in the cabin but it's a matter of a low, medium or high blower motor speed

How I can replace from second sync to 4 sync

@CarsWithSteve Год назад

It'll be tricky to make that upgrade if you're in an older Transit. Sync4 screens are in short supply so you'd have to find a 2022+ model that's in a scrap yard to get it Depending on your model year, an upgrade from the smaller Sync screen to the previous gen Sync3 screen is more realistic

The other thing is ford should install as standard the rear camera! The parking sensors only cover the lower bumper and Ford could be liable if people get killed and they did not install the available technology! They don't even fit a reverse buzzer as standard!

@CarsWithSteve 4 месяца назад

The rear camera is standard on North American cars as of 2008. On the Transit it's down low under where the plate would sit but on the medium/high roof it's top mounted.
