  • Ford Pass not working? Here is how to get it going again. The video will describe the steps and a last chance option of getting the app up and running again. It was interesting to find out about this step as it is not in the owners manual. This will work with all new Ford vehicles with the Ford Pass app for locking and remote stating.

    I tried this... but my pass still isn't working. it did reset, and it did attempt to connect, but I still cannot activate it in my app. I just bought this 2020 Edge. I heard pulling the fuse inside the glove box for five minutes might reboot the modem and get it to reconnect. But I'm afraid of pulling that fuse and losing it down the alternate universe that's behind that glove box.

    Definitely gonna try this but they told me to go to connectivity settings and turn them off and when I tried to turn it off it kept on refreshing. When I went back to turn the connectivity settings on, it won’t even let me access it. It will keep refreshing for 4-5minutes(or more) and then displays(connectivity settings are not available try again, call dealership if the problem persists.
    I called the dealership and they said they charge hourly fee as it’s not covered under warranty.
    Could you suggest something?

    Does the Master Reset make you lose all the updates that have been applied since the car was first new? Ours for our 2019 Ford Escape stopped on this past Thursday, 9/28. Wife drove to our daughters house and now my app thinks the car has never left there.

    2024- Did all the above, still no success. Called dealer to report issues with stereo and app. Stated could be due to the recall of the module they just released. And they will see first if module update is the issue. Read more reviews and the Auto start /off mentioned in many of the complaints. Went out to car did the recommended steps in this video again but when I started vehicle hit auto stop button to turn off feature. Then reloaded anpp and was able to reconnect to app. After said vehicle as powered on even though it was not went out turned on car, then off and locked doors. Went inside and app showed parked at my residence and i was able to use app to start and turn off vehicle. Until my car is serviced for recall at end of June!, I will disable auto off button before I drive. This took up better half of my day. But I do think part of my issue is due to the recall. Frustrating but for moment working again.

      I would agree, but I can’t because most automakers don’t add tricks like out of place button combos to activate hidden modes. Such as putting your electronic parking brake in service mode. You push the throttle pedal down while holding the park brake button in the off position and simultaneously turning the ignition back off and then on again(this is all done with the engine off obviously) then your brake job is normal like regular

    Just got 2023 F150. I can't open "Connected Vehicle Features" under "Connectivity". I've tried soft reset, factory reset, the tried pulling SYNC fuse, then pulled battery cable. None worked. How about this: How about Ford don't put out products that they can't make work properly. "We have all of this technology folks....its great, except we don't know how to make it work". Fail.

      @@MACTFordEdge Well, I went through all the trouble shooting. Soft reset, factory reset, pulled the fuse, disconnected battery cable. I finally got a hold of customer service. They told me (and this fit my problem description to a T) "2023 F-150s and Broncos have an issue right now, where you can connect Ford Pass once, and it works for a few days, then disconnects, and then you can't re-connect under any circumstances. We are aware of it, and we hope to have it fixed by early February 2023. " And that is EXACTLY what happened. I set up, it was connected for a few days and then lost connectivity and no amount of "trouble-shooting" will fix it. It's something on Ford's end. It was nice to hear them actually have an answer. I'm still frustrated with everything in society that only works if "synced" or "connected", because it seems that everything at some point loses sync or connection. I told someone...the day is coming when you won't be able to poop if WiFi or cloud connection is lost. Someday...I could see the entire waste water system be "connected and monitored" , and then it will lose connection and toilets won't flush, water won't run etc. Don't laugh. Think about where we were 40 years ago, then 20, then 10. Now, if "connection is lost", you can't buy groceries even if they have them because they can't scan/find prices/control inventory, etc. So if connectivity goes down, registers go down and they can't selll and you can't buy. I've been to post office to get a package. They had it. Sitting right there. But they couldn't give it to me. Because "the system was down"-- they needed to scan it but couldn't. So using that and looking forward.... there will be a day when we can't poop if the internet goes down or connection is lost.
