2013 F250 - Sync freezing randomly
I've got a 2013 F250 that has sporadic Sync issues, and am wondering if anyone has suggestions on how to fix it for good, without any hardware changes/upgrades.
There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to when it happens, but it'll randomly stop responding to inputs relating to the radio. If a radio station was playing, it'll continue playing, volume can be adjusted using the physical dial, but the station can't be changed with the screen or buttons. Also can't change the audio source. The climate controls on screen continue to work.
It behaves this way until the Sync fuse is pulled and reinstalled. The real issue is that if you don't notice that the issue is happening, the radio will stay on (even if no audio is actually playing) and completely drain the batteries in the truck.
Anyone have similar issues or suggestions of how to make this stop happening? It seems totally random as to when it happens, sometimes it's months between, and most recently it was just a couple of weeks.
