Buggs1a Posted October 9 Report Share Posted October 9 I have the 2013 cmax sel. I have a bike rack on my car. So back up beep is always there. Anyway to permanently disable this sound? when changing shifter to drive the audio stop or ships real bad. I hop in my car. Turn it on. Connects my phone and plays automatically. Shift to backup. Backup noise cus I have my rack there. Shift to go forward and audio from my phone stops or skips real bad sometimes. Ford deal never had issue when I took it in so they’re no help. But it still happens sometimes. What’s a fix? can I possibly get ford to sell my synch 3 and install it? I know it’s compatible and there’s or used to be a site selling it but for an insane rip off.

homestead Posted October 10 Report Share Posted October 10 There are lots of used sync 2 modules for cheap on ebay from people that have upgraded to sync 3. If a bad module is your problem that would be a cheap way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cr08 Posted 9 hours ago Report Share Posted 9 hours ago You may be able to disable the park sensors permanently through Forscan but I'm not sure of where to find that. It wouldn't be an easy menu toggle or button in vehicle. Stock you can disable it temporarily with the button on the dash under the HVAC controls and it'll remain off for the remainder of that drive. But next vehicle start it will re-enable. No way to change this specific operation. For the Sync issues, always start by checking for any updates and making sure it is fully up to date. The old Sync 2/MyFord Touch systems got pretty much everything sorted by their final EOL update (3.10). And just as a personal anecdote having hitch mounted accessories on a road trip back when I still had Sync 2 installed in my 2013, there were never any issues like this that I experienced. Here's Ford's site that can help you check for and apply updates: https://www.ford.com/support/sync-maps-updates/ Also if you haven't already done so, a master reset is a good thing to try. If you have updates to apply, it's also recommended to reset after those are applied as well. Upgrading to Sync 3 will not be possible through a dealer. They will always tell you no because Ford doesn't support or sanction that. It has to be done DIY. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
