Sync 2 calibration

Is there a way to calibrate the touch screen on the sync 2 screen. I'm having to press below what I want to select so I was wondering if there was a way to calibrate it to where I can touch directly on the option I want. Or is this one of those sync 2 MFT quirks?

Glad I'm not the only one that has this issue. Press FM radio button and it selects AM WTF.

Sync 2 is horrible, from not to my phone with bluetooth to skipping songs after playing for 15 seconds. I really see a sync 3 upgrade in the future as soon as I can

I agree a sync 3 system is in my future. Now I just have to figure out how to convince the wife that this annoyance is worth the coin. 🤔

You an get into the Sync maint mode by doing the following:

Remove CD (if one's inserted)
Be on am/fm radio mode
Press and hold the CD eject button.
After 1-2 seconds - press and hold the right arrow (seek/ next song button)
Keep it held and once it enters the speaker test mode, you can release and cancel the test.
In the menu that pops up. Go to APM and in the menu there, you'll see calibrate touchscreen.

Sweet. I will do that. Do you press the seek arrow at the same time you're holding down the eject button or do you release the eject button then press the seek arrow?
