Pandora suddenly not working

[Ugly John]

I've been using Pandora with no problems, then yesterday it wouldn't connect at all. I can run Pandora on my phone and play through a Bluetooth audio connection, but I lose all the steering wheel controls.

Has anyone else had this problem?

Yupp Same problem dude. Idk why all of the sudden its not finding it...I hate SYNC!! lol. They need to fix this shit..

Wait how were you playing Pandora from Sync if not using your phone in the first place?

It was playing through his phone through bluetooth. But won't connect unless he hardlines it.

Up until the other day, I could have my phone connected thru Bluetooth, hit the button on the steering wheel, and say "Pandora" - the system would make it's happy little "bing" and open Pandora with no problem. The steering wheel controls worked for skipping a song, or thumbing a song up or down.

Now when I say Pandora, I get the sad "bonk bonk" noise and it tells me (again) to say a command.

But, if I go to my phone and open Pandora by clicking on the icon, it will open Pandora and play thru the system if I tell sync "Bluetooth audio". now the only steering wheel control that works is volume.

Do you have the base system or MyFordTouch?

Automatic update of the SYNC system with a bug in it by the sounds of it.....

I have the base.

I personally think its because of the Pandora update to their app on our phones.

A lot of times peoples phones auto update and when that happens it changes setting within the phone that people are not aware of. I see it all the time. Recheck to make sure phone settings haven't changed and if nothing looks different. Unpair the phone and re-pair and that usually fixes the issue.

My phone settings haven't changed. I just disconnected and re-paired, and it doesn't find any mobile apps. I'm guessing it's a Pandora thing. Lovely.

Humm ok weird...I guess I should have said completely delete sync from your Bluetooth menu on your phone and completely delete the phone from the car and then repair and if that doesn't do it probably is a Pandora thing maybe wait for the next update..:(

Just tried a Sync master reset with no luck.
