    No texts when iPhone connected to Watch

    The whole idea is to avoid having to un-sync the watch and re-sync it every time I get into and out of the truck. Hopefully there will be a firmware update to accommodate this at some point.

    No texts when iPhone connected to Watch

    Before I got my Apple Watch I would get my texts thru the Sync system and it worked great. Now that I have my Apple Watch Sync no longer displays texts. It still allows me to answer phone calls and see contacts as well as other CarPlay apps but no texts. Is there a way to restore this when...

    I Pod playlists do not play correctly

    I have noticed some similar behavior on my 2016. It refuses to play the first song when you do a search, it will start with the second song. Also, when you turn off the ignition then start the car up again it will continue the last song played but will not retain the search, it just plays the...

    TPMS: What tire?

    Does the Ford TPMS have any way of telling you which tire(s) trigger an alert or what the indicated pressure actually is? (I have a 2016 Expedition) My previous Honda's TPMS would not only tell you what tire but the indicated pressures of each so I know it is possible.

    2016 Expedition with Satellite, Nav?

    Here it is: http://www.expeditionforum.com/threads/ford-sync-upgrade-from-v1-0-v2-2.31947/#post-262503 I did the change out and it took almost 3 minutes. The dealer wanted to charge me a labor fee to update the firmware but I had already completed that myself.

    Ham radio installation

    I have several radios in my 2016 Expedition. Two heads are mounted on a piece of 2x4 painted black and set in the tray forward of the gear shifter. The other head is mounted on a piece of cut wood compression fitted into the hole to the right of the sound system. The radios themselves are in a...

    New 2016 Owner - with plenty of questions

    Oops! Missed it a few replies above. It is in the Sync 3 system someplace... So how does this work with the non-insertion keys like we have on the Expedition? As for the dealer wanting to charge you for it, remember they are in business to make money. Right or wrong, they will almost always...

    Ford Sync upgrade from v1.0 ---> v2.2

    Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I updated the firmware (actually it updated itself since I had it connected to my home wifi) and stopped by the dealer to buy the part. They wanted me to let them install it and "Install the software" for a 2 hour labor charge but I declined the...

    Nav/Audio blacked out (2016 Expedition Limited)

    On the way home from the store yesterday the screen for the Nav/Audio system went dark for a minute or so and the radio went off. I pressed the power button and the system seemed to go thru a full reset, saying "Connecting" and it took 30-40 seconds for the Nav screen to appear and XM radio to...

    2016 Limited: Add Destination when moving

    Wow, that LockPick thing looks cool... I might have to run that past the CFO and see what she says. I don't have the rear DVD player, would it allow me to watch DVD's on the Nav Screen from the optical drive?

    2016 Limited: Accessory power point

    I am installing a radio that I want to turn on and off with the ignition on my 2016 Limited. Is there a place on the fuseblock or elsewhere that turns on and off with the ignition? I checked the cigarette lighter jacks and they seem to be on all the time. Thanks!

    2016 Limited: Add Destination when moving

    On my new 2016 Limited the Nav system will not allow my passenger to edit a destination when the vehicle is in motion. I know they do this to avoid the driver from fiddling with it when he should be driving but there should be a way to allow the passenger to do this when driving. In our...
