Why is the activation prompt not appearing in my vehicle?
After tapping the Activate Vehicle button in the Ford app, a pop-up screen confirming the activation should display on your vehicle screen, to allow you to complete the process. When there is no pop-up screen displayed in your vehicle, the Vehicle Connectivity menu item in SYNC® may need to be turned off and on again, by following the steps below.
- Access your vehicle, turn it on, and leave it running in Park.
- Open the Ford app.
- Click Settings on your Vehicle screen.
- Select Customer Connectivity Settings.
- Tap Vehicle Connectivity.
- If the toggle appears to be off, toggle the slider On (i.e., slide the dot to the right).
- If it appears to be On, toggle the slider Off (i.e., slide the dot to the left), then toggle the slider back On.
- Wait approximately 30 seconds for the data arrows
to display in the top right-hand corner of your Vehicle screen.
Note: This icon (i.e., the data arrows) shows that your modem is activated, and connected vehicle data is being transmitted.
