Model Year: 2014
Categories:
Electrics, ECU, Warnings & Lights
While driving was listening to music thru spotify and Usb cable on I pod. I received a phone call thru Bluetooth on my mobile (two different devices) when I hung up and my music would be playing but no sound also my I tunes account won't play thru usb either. I can however use Bluetooth on I pod and that plays fine. What's happened?

Dont know if this helps ,
I cannot hear my iPod® although I can browse it. What is wrong?
It might be possible that the iPod® is not connected correctly. There are three different possibilities to connect the iPod®:
a) With the Y-cable offered by your Ford-Dealer: Connect the one end of the cable to the dock-connector on the bottom of the iPod® and the other two ends with the USB-port and the line-in of the car. Advantage: There is a standard audio-output-level delivered at the bottom-connector, which offers optimal sound.
b) With standard cables two connections have to be made: Connect the dock-connector on the bottom of the iPod® with the USB-port of the car for controlling the iPod® (standard iPod®-USB-cable) and connect the headphone-jack of the iPod® with the line-in of the car for the audio-signal (3.5 mm stereo-jack, from any electronic-store). If only one cable is connected you can either control the iPod® and will not hear anything or you cannot control the iPod® using the car-radio/nav (but then using the iPods® own control).
c) In case you are using only the original Apple cable, please make sure that your Ford Audio System is updated to the latest software.
