Hi! I have Ford Focus and seems like phone button doesn't work on my car.
I've searched a little bit on internet but I can't really find the solution.
I don't see Sync logo on my car either.
how could I connect my phone to Focus.
Thanks and Happy Holiday!!

Common issue. The button is standard fit but not operational in all models. Same in my kuga. Dealer or private can fit blue tooth .

It could be several things;



The silliest one is just that there is no phone paired to it...



With the ignition & radio on, try the bluetooth menu on your phone and see if it sees something like "Ford Audio" - if it does, pair it (code probably 0000) and then you should be able to access stuff through the phone button on the radio.



Otherwise:



Do you have a stalk on the steering column for the radio etc., with a voice or mode button? if pressing one of the buttons gives a beep, it has the speech command module installed & that is also the phone/bluetooth link module. Say eg. "Climate" after the beep and it should reply.



Try pressing and holding the menu button for a while until it gives you the settings stuff, then scroll up and down that to see if there is a Bluetooth option.

If there is, make sure it's enabled & then try the phone or phone sync again.



The SCM is known to be a bit touchy and can crash or lock up.

To reset it, disconnect the car battery for at least half an hour. Make sure you have the radio code first!



Do you have a USB port in the glove box, as well as a 3.5mm aux socket? As far as I know, the glove box USB only works with an SCM installed; the 3.5mm can work with or without.



The SCM itself is hidden up behind the glovebox, it looks like this, around 3" x 4" :

You can also go to the Ford site online and put your car VIN in, it will show you all the options it was built with.



Go to the "Vehicle" tab, enter your VIN then look through the "More minor features" list in the next page:

If it does not have the bluetooth option, it is possible to retrofit the SCM - but it's neither easy or cheap..

If you don't have Sync and then you can't connect your phone to your audio system.



From page 33 of your owner's manual :



"(Phone): If your vehicle is equipped with SYNC, press to access

SYNC PHONE features. Refer to the SYNC information included with

your vehicle for further information.

If your vehicle is not equipped with SYNC, the display will read NO

PHONE."
