Technology can be frustrating sometimes, but don’t worry—the fix for a Bluetooth reset is pretty simple! To reset the
Ford Fiesta
Bluetooth, you can either reset the SYNC connection or do a master reset of the SYNC system. Follow these steps:
To reset the connection with SYNC:
  • On your mobile phone, access the Bluetooth menu and turn it OFF, and then ON.
  • In the SYNC menu on your Fiesta’s multimedia screen, click Bluetooth OFF and then ON by pressing the Phone icon > System Settings > OK > Bluetooth Devices > OK > OFF > ON.
  • You may need to manually SYNC with your mobile device. To do this, press the Phone button > System Settings > OK > Connect Bluetooth Device > OK > Select your phone’s name > OK.
In cases where your connection fails or takes over a minute, continue with the following steps:
  • Connect the phone to your vehicle’s SYNC system by locating your phone’s Bluetooth menu and tapping the SYNC option.
  • Turn off your vehicle’s engine and restart the car. Once started, wait for a confirmation message that the connection was successful to display on your SYNC screen.
To do a master reset of the SYNC system:
  • On your mobile phone, navigate to the Bluetooth menu from Settings and select SYNC. Either swipe or click to delete it.
  • On your Fiesta’s touchscreen, select the Menu icon.
  • Use the Down Arrow to reach the Settings option on the SYNC screen.
  • Tap OK to confirm.
  • Use the Down Arrow to reach the Master Reset option.
  • Press OK to confirm the reset.
  • A confirmation message will appear asking you to confirm the reset—press Yes to confirm.
