Sync 3 Tutorial | How to Access Sync 3 HIDDEN Menu!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 сер 2024
- Sync 3 is the infotainment system for Ford vehicles. I recently updated to Sync 3.4 in my 2019 Mustang GT. Sync 3.4 update has a lot of cool features, however the best is the hidden Sync 3 menu.
Sync 3 hidden menu is a great way to access diagnostics for your Ford vehicle that has Sync 3. Sync 3 hidden menu also lets you change theme for your Sync 3 infotainment system.
Sync 3 hidden menu works for any Ford vehicle running at least Sync 3.0 software version. Sync 3.4 isn't required to access this hidden menu, however I recommend upgrading to Sync 3.4 system for your Ford Vehicle.

Also when you're in the Testing Settings screen after it runs through that speaker test, if you want you can enable the command: "Enable Testing Settings" This puts that "Hidden Menu" in your main Settings screen, so you don't have to access that "Hidden Menu" by pushing the two skip track buttons, the theme can then be changed by just entering the main settings screen.
Didn’t know that! I’ll have to check it out
It's amazing how he can stretch out something that should take 10 seconds and make it a 4:20 minute video.
That’s my hidden talent!

Great channel for Mustang owners. Thanks for all the great content!
Thank you! Got tons of mustang videos from mods to helpful tips and tricks.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you bro. So many vids are just so congested and never quite get to the point. Your the man: Instant sub.
I am glad you found my video to helpful! I try to keep my videos short and to the point to help viewers find what they are looking for. Thanks!
Thanks for sharing! Your technique (to run speaker test and access hidden diagnostics menu) worked on 2018 Ford Focus MK3.5 with SYNC 3 system (APIM) running v3.0 software. Very helpful! 👍
I’m glad the tutorial was easy to follow! Enjoy the cool themes on your car!
Every Time after I watch your videos I catch my self window shopping for a mustang gt
# 🚗 🚘
Haha! It’s time to get one. It will be a nice addition to your garage
🐎🏁 nice to see another Mustang owner digging for details. watching your video today i learned something new.
Thank you! Yea it’s a nice way to select themes too! I’ve got another video coming soon where I go over some of the themes that sync 3 has to offer
Thanks for sharing
You’re welcome! I hope it was helpful!
Hold power button and fast forward to reset if you are having trouble reverting back. :)
Yeah that’s a great tip! Thanks
Didn’t work for me. 2013 escape with sync 3.4. Never mind. I selected audio then pressed the two buttons.
I don’t even think 2013 models had sync 3 lol
Problem is, it wont stay permanent. It resets everytime you turn the car off then on.
Yeah you’d need a forscan tool
So I changed the theme to what I liked, but after shutting down and restarting, it reverts back to the original.
Can you help
Unless you have the forscan tool, it won't remain unfortunately. You have to select the them every time you get into the car which is annoying.
I’m in a 2022 Ford Explorer and I cannot get the screen to switch back to the original and I cannot scroll to the correct diagnostics page now.
Usually if it gets stuck turning off the car and waiting 5-10 mins help. If it’s still stuck I’d suggest removing the battery cable for a bit
The Menu you present is Not a hidden Menu. It actually gets used in some Sync system Diagnostics. The menu you accessed is Called Bezel diagnostics, and is published in Fords workshop Manual on PTS, wsm section 415-00.
Interesting! I think to consumers it's hidden but I agree it's not fully hidden and has a purpose. Similar to engineering mode on the Mustangs
How do set back this had messed my screens up ?
Leave the car locked for 10 mins and it should reset. Worst case unplug the battery for couple mins
Doesn't work on sync 3.0. Yes i accessed the speaker test and the test settings. I changed the theme and enabled the test settings. Resets back to the factory setting as soon as you shut off the vehicle.
You need a forscan tool for it to be permanent unfortunately
Just wondering does the new screen you add stay when you start the car next time. Or do you have to repeat the process.??. Ps great find and video.
Unfortunately not. That would be cool to see it stay. You have reset to the theme every time you turn on the car. Thanks for watching!
You would need Forscan to change it permanently
Yes I was able to go back to the original Ford logo but when I started the car again it did not show up
You guys like to brag that you found this hidden feature so you can change your wall paper and splash screen. But what you are not telling everyone is it is only temporary. As soon as you shut the car off and start it again it loads to your default settings. This is useless information.
Yes unfortunately you need the Forscan tool to have it permanently
How do you do it with forescan?
Does not work on mine , latest Sync 3.4.23188
What car?
You forgot to tap ENABLE TEST SETTINGS to crate the quick access from the standard sync menu.
I did not know that - interesting!
why my trackapps hidden away？ it cant show on my menu.(2021 mustang ecoboost)
Do you have the premium or base mustang Ecoboost? I believe only premium models have track apps
Does it work on official 3.3?
Yes it does! Mine is official update
💯Good video but I don't think there's going to be too many Mustang related to pick from,can't use the Shelby unless you have a shelby.☝
Yeah there aren't mustang specific options. Haha I agree need a shelby to use that otherwise I might as well have shelby badges
How do you go back to the original settings if you dont like it.
Try turning off the car and coming back to it after 10 15 mins
Do you know if it works on a 2016 lariat f150 with sync 3.0
Yup it should work for all vehicles with sync 3.0 at least!
But when I stop the car it will automatically return to defoult theme?
Yes unfortunately that’s true. You need Forscan tool to keep it permanently
Do you know why mine won’t work I did the update everything right but it only works when I shut down after doing it. If I turn it back on and off it goes back to the horse? I keep trying over and over and even re updated it still no luck
We need the ForScan tool to be able to have the themes permanently. Otherwise it would always revert back to the original themes in our case the Mustang logo.
@@Red5oh ohh so it will only do it once after that it reverts back to the mustang screen ? So that’s normal? To have it perms and I need the forescan ?
I have ford escape sync 3.4 and this didn’t work 😢
It should work on sync 3.4 as that is what I have. I have had it once where it didn't work. Make sure to lock the car and unlock it before trying again
@@Red5oh Thanks for the reply I got it to work I had to be on the radio screen not settings screen. Glad for your video cause it showed me the cool trick of this.
I don’t think this works on cars using FDRS. I have a ranger that’s on sync 3 but uses FDRS and this trick doesn’t work. Almost every other car on sync 3 uses IDS though.
What is FDRS and IDS?
Thanks for showing this! Does anything happen if you do the two on the opposite side going to the left with the steering wheel control and the radio control? I’m afraid to do it without knowing what would happen lol
That’s a good question I haven’t tried that yet. I’m thinking nothing will happen since it’s not programmed for it. Although now I’m curious lol
I did this and now my display is in really big font and cannot get back to any menus. Any tips on how to reset display? It’s pretty much useless right now.
I have had that happen once. Turn off the car and leave it for 10 mins then come back in and it should be reset.
I found another video on resetting…press and hold power and skip button for about 10 seconds, resets the screen and seems to have worked.
Why doesn't my sync 3.4 show the nav tab? And when I connect to android auto I press on the maps tab but it doesn't open anything 😑 any help, thanks.
Does your car come with navigation?
The only Nav Maps I have are when I hook up my Android phone with Android Auto and it displays Google Maps on the screen!!!.. 2020 Ford Explorer XLT.
Car is supa dope
Thank you sir! Got tons more content on the car on my channel that you’ll enjoy
Doesn't work for me and mine is a 2022 GT Premium with the sync 3.4
That’s strange. I haven’t tried in newer cars but I’d imagine it would be same
@Red5oh
Read a couple of articles where that feature was disabled. It's not a big deal to me. I wish the chosen display screen would stay that way instead of reverting back every time.
Very nice. I am not about to change theme, but I would be very curious to know how did you find out about this undocumented feature? some service engineer told you about it?
I can across it on a forum then was just playing around with the car and got into it lol. It’s pretty neat to have it
On my 2020 mustang GT I switched to the GT350 theme and then back to the original mustang GT but the shutdown is stuck on the 350?!! How do I fix that? Thanks!!
Remove battery for 10 minutes and then put it back in. This should reset the sync settings back to the original. Radio presets and car settings will remain the same.
I’ll have to try this in my MKZ
It’s really cool! Tons of Lincoln themes as well
Hey, what’s up man I was able to find after I finally updated those hidden little Easter eggs and I can change that start up logo to Shelby so the snake comes up and when I shut the car off the snake appears but every time I start the car back up the mustang appears and that goes back to Mustang in the city. How do you get that this stay?
You need the Forscan tool for it to be permanent otherwise it will always go back to cars original background in our case the mustang
@@Red5oh thanks
How to fix sync3 if you pressed the button of voice command button appeared voice recognition not ready?
What do you mean voice command not ready?
That happens whenever the vehicle is starting up. It is still booting the system so it takes awhile for voice commands to be ready.
@@Red5oh The voice commands where you ask the car to call someone or change the radio. The message happens whenever the vehicle is starting up and you try to use voice commands too early. It is still booting the system so it takes awhile for voice commands to be ready.
Arrrrg... I tried playing with the menus and now I'm in a mode that does not allow me to view anything on my main Navi screen.
IE: When I start the car up, the main navi screen just displays source and a couple other minor radio options.... with no way to actually select any other options.
Now if I press the two right arrows the same almost blank screen comes up.
Any idea how to get back to the default??
The Testing Settings option no longer comes up when I press the two right arrow keys, so I can't get it back into Mustang GT mode
Never mind... I had to disconnect the battery terminal and wait 15 minutes....
Now the Navi screen (and all controls) appear when I start the car.
Yup it's odd the screen stayed after shutting the car, but that was going to be my suggestion too that try unhooking the battery. I am glad that helped out. Did you find interesting in the menus?
@Red5oh Why not try a soft reset before a battery disconnect??? You know, "Power Button + ⏭️" combo???🤔
Ty!
Glad it was helpful!
Do not forget to tell everyone that the radio must be on
Good point!
I tried this on my 2017 Mustang GT and nothing happened,I turn on accessory and tried it several times and nothing.
It should work on 2017 models too. Does it give any message?
@@Red5oh No,whatever was on the screen when I do this nothing changes,your Mustang only took a few seconds I tried it several times and held it for at least ten seconds or longer and nothing changed,I wish I could try this it seems pretty cool.
@@TheNuzzman Is your sync hardware out of date? Likely only for vehicles from 2019 and beyond.
@@MTMProductions i have 2017 and it has it on mine
thank you for another informative and straight to the point vid
Thank you for watching! I’ll have another video where I showcase some of the themes as wel
Never mind it reverted back on its own!
I’m glad it got fixed! Did it do it by itself or you did something?
@@Red5oh all by itself!
This didn’t work for me at all never popped up
What car do you have?
thank you for this informative and straight to the point video. good job.
Thank you! Hopefully you’re able to access some cool sync 3 themes
😂😂😂😂I just change my SuperDuty startup to Shelby R hahaha😂😂😂😂
Lol yes! No one will know 😂I occasionally change mine to raptor or Shelby lol
@@Red5oh only problem is it wouldn’t save after I turned the truck off.
@@JAG6.7 yeah unfortunately you need a Forscan tool for that to work
@@Red5oh I will order this tool as I was wanting it anyways. Thanks
It doesn’t stay permanently
Yup you need forscan tool for it to stay permanently. Although it does look cool
@@Red5oh yea it did look cool
@@Arguy1683 I’ll probably have a video up soon where I showcase all the themes
@@Red5oh When?🤔
@@fookingsog just uploaded! Check it out on my channel
First!😁
Thank you!
This is NOT a hidden menu!
99% of people don’t know about it lok
