Fixing the Bluetooth Disconnected Error on Ford Sync v1

An easy 5-10 minute fix for when your Ford Sync version 1 shows the "Bluetooth Media Disconnected" error on your infotainment screen.

This was done on a 2011 Ford Focus

Thanks for wasting a minute and a half of my life reviewing the same shit everyone has tried. 5 out of 5 stars for the actual 15 seconds I needed

Thank you! This happens to me all the time, I usually just have to wait a few weeks until it randomly decides to connect again. This only took about 2 minutes, I’m so happy to know this now!

OMG ...You are the only one I found that showed something that actually works! Saves me so much grief!

[joshscherr]

I don’t normally leave comments, but you are an absolute life saver… tried everything I could think of from factory reset to master reset with no luck… here I am sitting in the car watching this video and it worked!!! 🎉 thanks again!!

In my 2014 F-150 I do not have this option under the system settings. This is beyond infuriating it will randomly disconnect all the time

Sync reboot doesn’t show up as an option for me (2011 Ford Escape)

I'm sitting in my 2011 Escape watching this video. THANK YOU! THANK YOU!THANK YOU! It's especially helpful that you made this video for the older/oldest Sync versions. 😊 This is hardly the the first time this happened, I ultimately hit the right combination of buttons to fix it. I did a factory reset and a master reset before I found your video. It's now saved! 😂

Not all superheros wear capes! Thank you!!!! I've been without this for over a year!

[laurengoldman]

[geraldwhite]

Heck yeah thank you. My phone wouldn't connect to my radio for 2 years and I just lived with it

Ford has the worst bluetooth i have had in any car. This didnt fix my problem, ford ranger.

I got a brand new Ford Fiesta with only 6 MILES on the odometer… and it was already throwing out errors. What a bunch of garbage.

Thank you!

Nothing makes me want to punch a hole in my dashboard quite like Ford Sync

[TheTech]

Well then I totally overlooked this. Worked on a 2012 F150! Thankyou for the input!

[tan]

thank you so much!!! ive been trying to figure it out for the past couple days on my 2010 ford fusion and its been driving me crazy but this worked thank you!!!

[Kaci]

Amazing!!! Literally this is the only thing that worked for me! You’re the best, thank you!

[derik]

Thanks dude I’m literally driving in my Ford fusion watching this

[tracybondbird]

Thanks! This saved me from disconnecting my battery!

[dignelberrt]

I never would've known that was an option thank you so much man

My 2011 Ford Escape doesn’t have “SYNC Reboot”, only “Master Reset”, and I already Master Reset and Clicked Default Settings but The Bluetooth is still stuck in Off Mode 😒
