How do I perform a SYNC®* module reset?

Some vehicles with Gen1.1, MyLincoln Touch®, or SYNC 3 have the ability to reset the SYNC module with a specific button combination.

This reset does not delete phone pairings, radio presets, and saved navigation points (if equipped with Navigation).

If a SYNC feature function is lost, try resetting the SYNC system to restore functionality:

  • Select Radio.
  • Hold the Power button (center of the volume knob) + the Right-Seek button at the same time for up to 5 seconds.
  • The display will indicate when the module is resetting. You may then release the buttons.
