I found your forum and hope to find some help. Years ago I installed an aftermarket stereo, and recently had to change it. While working on it the wire I was using for the accessory touched metal and shorted out the car. I'm unable to find what messed up. Any help is greatly appreciated

...could be wheel speed/road speed. This information is sent to your speedometer, engine management computer, ABS system, Traction control, stereo volume, power steering, air bags, cruise control, lane departure and on, and on...o_O! The term for this system today is CANBUS, It was mandated in...

Hi, I have a 2013 Fiesta, unmodified and am looking to replace the head unit with a touch screen Apple Carplay unit running on Android 12. There seem to be a few different brands and prices out there. Does anyone have the NHOPEEW or Rimoody units retailing for around £250? If so are they any...

Sorry to say most of that went over my head. But Both of the units came out of the two 2014 Fiestas I have in my position. Both are stock. If I remember right the difference between them is 5 months.

...to quick post the above, wanted to add in this - see the connector on the OLDER unit (looks to be from your vehicle) that is where the Audio stereo system "tape monitor loop" goes and shows the frequency and mode display and any RDS music info thru the series data ports in the wiring...

...said about that SYNC unit itself. Here's a little more to help you decipher what I said above. If you remember the older Console Component stereos of older days, the SYNC unit takes a few pages from them to enhance your ability to be entertained while driving. The older days of...

...one in the Engine compartment?) or there is damage to the wiring and Sync is affected. The SYNC unit by your description is not telling the Stereo (Radio CD) unit anything anymore so the Front Console display doesn't show any available commands because there is no communication with the unit...

...of Coal plate for the blacked out look. Then it was back to winter mode. Then in February of 2022 I decided to upgrade the stereo system because the SYNC was having major issues connecting to my phone. Went with a Sony XAV-AX8100 9" screen with Android Auto, and Powerbass OE...

...layers of complexity. Since you're in 2016 - have you sought after a display from any Focus, Taurus or even Explorer of the same year that stereo is using a similar APIM? Then if you know the year (Date code) of the Stereo - then that is the APIM you look for. It is so the chipset of the...

...it have to be programmed? And I know the ford dealership won't program it because they didn't install it. That's my two main hiccups. The stereo in there is stock base model Gen 1 sync system and for the life of me haven't been able to find an apim that will work for it and I absolutely...

...[and it still going!!....] but I'm missing all the niceties of current motoring [like working Air Con, being able to play spotify through the stereo rather than through headphones from my iphone, that sort of thing... :) ] I like the style of the S Line [155bhp], but also like the styling...

My daughter's Fiesta 2011 has an issue with the clock and the stereo. First the clock: It doesn't show either date or clock, and it's impossible to adjust. I get into the meny, but there is no reaction to the adjustments. The clock shows up like this: I have tried disconnecting the battery...

...good in snow ... basic commuter car..fun to drive..new water pump, timing belt, compressor along with regular oil changes .. I am really frustrated with the stereo - will not play FLAC files - must have dealer update, which is bogus ... must convert flacs to 320 MP3 to listen to music on USB ...

...the stepper does, to a smaller but much higher torqued - movement for the throttle plate. Think of this like an older "Volume control" for a stereo - if the pot (variable resistor potentiometer) got dirty, you heard scratchy hissy sounds as you rotated that control - until it could find a...

...got totaled, I'd replace it with another FiST. My comment on the Savage Geese review of the car: No one buys a FiST for the interior. The stereo is adequate, not great. The ride is stiff, but that can be changed if it bugs you, for not too much money. Ford put all the ST (Sports...

...I started experiencing the dreaded radio popping that so many with Fiestas tend to experience. Not having the money at the time to replace the stereo, I ended up just unplugging it from the dash to avoid the issue altogether. About a year ago I ended up buying an OEM replacement stereo on...

Hello, I am at a loss for what to do next. I see many people have this issue, but i have yet to see any resolution. The problem started when playing the radio, and then there would be a big pop noise, and the sound would just turn off. Sometimes though, there would be no popping noise and the...

***Thanks for clearing that up for me, so you don't think it's the radio box itself but the sync unit? I don't know much about cars I literally YouTube how to videos. I'm not sure what to do next if I put the radio back in.

...thru your SYNC unit to get your sound, tuning modes and phone / BT gets sent to received from the unit as a general "amplifier" much like in a Stereo system - with the "head unit" being the Blank face for the tuning, CD, and General Audio amplification and listening - but all the OTHER stuff...
