  1. Hi All. I found a fix to the iphone issue - at least this worked for me - try it out yourself and see if it works. I will post back after couple days again to let you all know if this continues to work, or if it falls over again, but so far so good this is what I did and it worked Reset the bluetooth module, find the fuse in the under dash fuse box, with power off, remove fuse, key in, switch to on or even start car, wait a little, key off and refit fuse. This also helps for those that find they can't get into the ICC phone settings menu which for some reason locks them out. Disconneting the car battery does the same thing however you also lose some of the customisable settings on the ICC & Dash menus whereas fuse removal is specific to bluetooth module. Firstly I followed the above instructions regarding the fuse box again. for those of you who are not sure, you need to remove fuse 21 which is a brown 7.5 amp fuse which controls the bluetooth. I then also went ino the centre console box and removed the tech pack. Slowly and gently raise it up until it clicks out - it is basically one plastic self locking nogen in the cetre of the bottom of the tech pack holding it down and it place. As it comes up, gently bring the non wired loom side out and then reach in and disconnect the wiring loom. Proceed to follow the above posted steps regarding removing the fuse, starting the engine, and turning off the engine. Then, reconnect the tech pack wiring loom in the console, snap the whole thing back into place, re start the car, and hopefully, your bluetooth will now work fine like mine. I hope this works ongoing - it seems to work for me for the moment. I tested the iphone while connected and playing music, making and recieeving calls, while on the radio, making and receivng calls, and also doing it all from the phone button on the steering wheel and from the phone itself. So far so good. I tried it a couple times and so far not a hiccup. Hopefully this solution continues to work. It seems as if the tech pack has re set itself and now all works sweet. I will continue to post and let you all know if this works ongoing and does not drop out again, In the mean time. Here are photos of my new 6 day old beast, and also for those interested a photo of my Ipod cable, neatly re wired into the cup holders so I can have my iphone out and not in the console.
  2. Hi all ! first time poster on this forum I just sold my BA II XR6T privately. Walked into a Ford showroom, saw an FG F6 in Nitro with 19" Argent wheels, leather,and brembos and fell in love and bought it. Who says $70k is not an impulse purchase ! I am having all the same Iphone/Bluetooth probems listed throughout this thread. If anyone ends up with a perfectly working solution or ford Fix please let us know. I'm on the road so I must have my phone & email & bluetooth working 100%. My old XR6t had an aftermarket Sony Ericcsonn $100 BT kit which worked 100% perfectly with the Iphone. Same a $500 ford genuine accessory can not do the same. Cheers FPV - 539
