Possible fix for iPhone stuck in Repeat or Shuffle

[ace8726872]

One of the issues that I have with MyFord Touch is that when I connect my iPhone5 via USB, the Repeat button on the screen is on and I can't change it. Al the same time, my Shuffle button is OFF and I can't turn it on. This drives me crazy!

 

I was messing around with it just now and I think I got mine fixed. I am not sure if this will work for you but I am posting it just in case it will work.

 

So here it goes.

 

1. Click on Repeat and it is on All. Choose One then OK. Repeat will stay on.

2. Click on Repeat again and click OFF then OK. This turns off REPEAT and then it responds to all Repeat Modes normally.

 

After I fix the Repeat, then the Shuffle works again. It's funny but it almost seems like you have to change Repeat steps to get it to work. It won't work if I jump from ALL to OFF in one shot.

 

Unfortunately, if I disconnect my iPhone5 from USB and reconnect, same problem persists where Repeat button is on and I have to go through the steps above to make it work. At least, I know how to fix it temporarily now.

 

Can someone give this a try if you are having the same issue?

I found my MFT reboots itself every 5 engine starts.

You need to install antivirus on MFT! :-) its probably stealing your MPG from your car!

Crowbar and sledge hammer I heard work quite well!

I use USB and Spotify and it likes to advance the songs before they are finished playing. Seems like it settles in after I've been driving a few minutes and works okay. I will arbitrarily blame the ICE.

Pandora does that too, every so often it will go to the next song before the current one completes. It only happens when connected to MFT.
