So I had a problem where the car would prompt me every time I started the car to scan for wifi networks, even though system wifi was turned off (side not, does the wifi in a 2018 Edge actually work, I've never managed to successfully connect it to anything or do OTA updates0> Anyways, the recommended fix is to reset the sync unit from the menus, which I did.
Now I still get the prompt when starting the car AND Sync no longer detects my iPhone and/or carplay does not do anything no apps, nothing. Literally how can this setup be so darn buggy. It was all working with one annoying issue which should have been solved with a reset, now is does not work at all.
In addition my 128GB USB music stick, that, yep, was working 100% for months, now Sync says it media not present. I can see all the files on the USB device when plugged into my PC
I've tried another reset on Sync, reset/cold booted my iPhone (latest 12.2 s/w), disconnected the BT link from phone to sync and have been trying various combinations for the last 2 hours. Very, very frustrated and looking for some inspiration. Since it was all working before the reset, I do not think I have a hardware or lightning cable problem....
Thanks in advance for any debugging ideas anyone may have
