- 2013 Ford Explorer Sport
So, on my 2013 Ford Explorer Sport the MFT (3.5.1) screen has completely frozen. Following the threads I've found, I've tried pulling fuse #29, but no success in a reboot. Has this changed on the 2013s?
Personally, I wouldn't have minded pulling the main power plug into the fuse box as suggested by a guy on youtube that he did on an Edge, but unfortunately there's not a fuse panel in the truck - only under the hood and I wasn't able to source the power supply into the fuse box.
Does the truck have to be restarted with fuse #29 pulled in order for it to work (doesn't make sense to me if it's always powered)? I'm reluctant to use the www.outofmytouch.com app reboot via USB right now, but surely there's got to be a way to get this fixed?
Any other suggestions before I elect to bring it back to the shop to effect some repairs?
Seriously, they need a simpler way to effect a reset.
