Webby, I watched this right through hoping to find outs how to invoke the 'calm screen' that appears in the menu settings. Any idea whether it is ooss8ble?
I tested this on my currently reserved 2023 Ranger Raptor & while the screen did get bigger, it remained only two rows of icons (just zoomed bigger). Even though I have multiple pages of apps (4 or 5). Any tips on how to get 3 rows like yours?
Need to go into the DAB. I got my Raptor and struggling on how to even select DAB channels or how to tune them. For example, select "DAB" then press a channel, and goes to FM... Click dab again, and + may get lucky and get a DAB channel but doesn't show as a selection. Very confusing...
Can you add a caravan camera into the system?? Don't want to cover up the auto dimming rear view mirror with a clip on monitor.....looks like I will have to mount the reverse monitor seperately.... Very informative.....
@Darrin Douglas I’m not sure if you can to be honest. A couple of people have asked me this so I’ll find out. Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed the video
Hi my ford ranger XL only plays driver seat speaker the rest don’t play even when I position to centre, please upload a video showing the settings on how to play all speakers
Hey Webby, Do you know if there is a short cut for changing the screen to calm screen ??? At the moment I have to go to settings display and then select calm screen.
G'day Webby, thanks for a very informative video. I've had my XLT for about 9 weeks so still learning about the Sync 4 system. I would really like to know how to turn down the volume for the phone ring tone without turning down the volume on the call. The only way I've been able to do this results in me having to turn up the volume when I've answered the call because I can't hear the caller. Hope this makes sense.
@KLEINY666 Thanks for your feedback, I'm glad the video was useful for you. I've had a look in the settings and I can't see anywhere you can change the volume of the phone when it's ringing. Have you tried adjusting the ring tone volume on your phone itself? this might help solve your issue.
Thank you for this. My applecarplay is not displaying anything at all when I push Apple CarPlay. Everything else works but it won’t display anything on my apple CarPlay. So I can’t see or select music, can’t answer a phone call etc. could you please help me? 😭
@lotenzoafamasaga9257 you could try doing a soft reset which involves pressing the power button until the system restarts, or do a master reset which you can find in the settings. If neither of these work it might require a trip to your dealer to get looked at to see what the problem is
Good info I soon will be picking up new xlt I have never had that type of thing in any of my cars so it has been good to sit and go through it and de able to repeat it Thanks again try to get more on it G W
Hi Webby. Great videos…thank you so much! One question…I’m looking at buying a 2022 Everest Ambiente. It doesn’t have the 360 degree cameras, but obviously has the front and rear parking sensors. What does the display look like when you are reverse parking and what else does the car do or show you to make it easier to park?
@kathbaber2710 Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the video. When you reverse, the rear camera appears in the top half of the display in the SYNC4 system.
Thanks for that introduction to the Ford system Will you be doing a video on how the built in electric brake controller is used? I’ve ordered the V6 Sports with the touring pack. I tow a caravan 😬
@Rodney Wildin No worries at all, I hope you found the video helpful. I’ll be making lots of videos about different features of the new Ranger, so I’ll add the brake controller to that list. Congratulations on your new ute, you’ll love it!
Webby, great informative information. Is the Sync 4 Software for towing automatically included as std with the 2022 Ford Everest Platinum when the Towing/Touring Pack is not ordered from Factory, or does it have to be switched on?
@user-xo3fl1qe9s Thanks, I'm glad you found it useful. The towing function is included, although I don't know how it changes when a dealer fitted towbar is installed, as I've never sold one this way.
Great video Webby. Can you turn off the engine start/stop function for good in the sync 4. I found it really annoying in the sport demo when you stop at the lights an the car turns off.
@Louise Rodoni The stop/start function is only on the V6 engine, and you can turn it off via a button on the centre console. Unfortunately you can’t permanently disable it so you have to turn it off each time you start the engine
@Andrew S Thanks I’m glad you enjoyed it. I’m not sure about that, but it seems a popular question. I’m going on a Ford training course next week, so I’ll ask some of the tech guys and see if they know.
@Webby On Cars - did you get any update on this from the techs at all. I asked at the local dealership and they didn't know. They did say a few had asked though.
@kiiyted Yes, you can connect 2 phones at the same time, but not when using Apple Carplay or Android Auto. Instead you can do it when connecting via Bluetooth. 1 phone for phone calls and the other for music streaming
Nice work Webby, thanks for these videos, will you do a video for new F-150 12'' Cluster? It has ghost cluster like 8'' Everest/Ranger cluster but, I think it's design more attractive .
@user-de3tv5ex8h Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it. The rev counter is in the controls on the steering wheel. I made a separate video on the instrument cluster here. th-cam.com/video/v_s67WCyZi4/w-d-xo.html
hey mate is there any way of removing the climate controls at the bottom? i find it stupid they have actual buttons and then keep them on the screen as well making it essentually a 2 inch smaller screen then what it is
this looks a bit different from mine. Just picked up today and having issues connecting the phone. When in connectivity and trying to search the for available apps it says my phone is not connected but yet apple car play works
@Crsf84 When you connect your phone, you can either choose to use carplay or not. If you do then the apps work through carplay, if not then they will work through the built in system.
Great video, is there a function to backup all your settings, to USB or cloud etc, I can see if a Master reset is done, it would take you hours to reset everything to how you had them previously, if you can backup the settings then reinstate them in a few seconds ?, maybe something to ask Ford at the training session if its not available
Great detail and explanation. Any chance you have video on setting up the towing function with the ford braking system? I’m waiting on my XLT and wondering if the ford elec braking system is close to a red arc pro?👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Hey buddy. If you can afford the extra $2.5k get the Sports model. Heaps is extras. I was going for the XLT also. The touring pack is a must, think of the resale value 👍
Hi Webby, thanks again for a perfect, easy to follow video, one question I have is are there any controls for the rear passenger Heater outlet or does it just run parallel to driver or passenger setings?
Hi Webby, how do I set the sat nav up to tow a caravan and get suitable caravan routes? The manual says go to the menu and select caravan and trailer but it’s not available. Is this an extra subscription if so how do I get it? Thanks in advance
@@WebbyOnCars Thanks for the reply mate. The built in manual says to open the navigation tab and then press the menu to select caravan and trailer navigation (if fitted) I’m assuming with having the platinum and the tow pack, the sat nav includes caravan routes. I can’t find the menu, do you know where the menu is on the platinum navigation screen? The only one I can see is the icon with the spanner but nowhere in there does it show the caravan and trailer option for navigation. I have phoned Ford and to my astonishment they didn’t know where the menu option is!!! The dealer also doesn’t know, they said their training didn’t cover that topic, crazy I know.
Nice job webby. Question for everyone. Do many people still use in built Sat nav in cars that have CarPlay? For last 4 cars I’ve had with CarPlay I have not used in built sat nav once. I’m surprised cars are still including it!
My NextGen Ranger Raptor doesn’t have Navigation built in and has had ZERO impact on my use since I always use Apple CarPlay too. Although, some options are also missing like WiFi (don’t care) and built in Software Updates (I do care 😢)
Great video, I am so looking forward to getting my new car (ok, dual cab ute ha ha) next year. I saw in the vid a lights off timer, do the lights turn off automatically on engine off/door lock or manually switch off?

Great video mate! I have an XLT with touring pack but doesn't have zone lighting. I can see this XLT had the touring pack were you able to find the zone lighting?
@Daniel Morzone Thank you I’m glad you enjoyed it. I had a look through the settings on the sync4 system in an XLT which had the touring pack today, and couldn’t find anything about the zone lighting, but I found it when I connected my phone via FordPass.
Great video, thank you. I have a question about interior ambient lighting in Wildtrak. Can you please tell me or give me informacion about this funcionality? Thank you again, great content!
@Jakub Jelinek Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the video. The ambient lighting can be turned on or off, and the brightness adjusted via the settings on the SYNC4 system.
Webby can you have 2 phones connected for calls. Obviously only 1 phone for the android auto or apple play but can you connect 2 phones for calls in and out thank you.
@Sharron Miller I haven’t tried that yet. I know you couldn’t do that on the previous SYNC3 so I’m not sure if this new system will do it but I’ll investigate and see if it’s possible.
Hi Webby. How does the tyre monitors work on the Ranger. Does a low pressure alert come up on the dash. Thinking it may have pressure monitors in the tyres. My friend has a set up in his Hyundai Terracan with monitors screwed onto the tyre valves. Regards
@navarrolaurent7548 Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Yes, you can start the car via the Fordpass app on your phone. it works anywhere in the world as long as you have phone reception.

Brilliant video mate, I was just watching a video of Paul's @ CarExpert and was wondering when he was going to do one of these but looks like you beat him to it! Question: Does the Apple CarPlay allow you to input numbers or search for contacts while the vehicle is in motion? My missus hates that I have to pass her the phone when i'm driving if she wants to call someone using the Sync 3 system in the 2021 Ranger. Thanks!
@MrCrazyivan01 Thank you, I hope you enjoyed the video. You can use Siri for most things on sync3 like making phone call’s. Have you tried using that instead?
@@WebbyOnCars Yes we have but if we need to use the keypad (like calling a 13 number or something) then the keypad is disabled. Siri sucks as well because of the multiple phone numbers some of our contacts we have (home, work, mobile etc). It would just be easier if they enabled those features and had a disclaimer that says "Do not operate when driving" therefore alleviating the need for indemnity if someone was to have an accident as a result.
@@MrCrazyivan01 I’ve never tried asking Siri to dial a number, but you can ask it to call different numbers for a contact ie. ‘call Steve mobile’ or ‘call Steve home’
When in Sand Mode in the Everest Platinum do I have to lower my tyre pressures manually on 21 inch tyres? … or would it be better to have the 18 inch tyres? Thanks for your informative vids
Hi Webby, just a quick question..for markets without inbuilt Modems, how would we know that updates available that needs SYNCH4 to be updated..especially critical updates like security enhancements etc?
@@WebbyOnCars Yes..sorry I am from Papua New Guinea and that was what I have been told by the local dealership here. Our (PNG) builds don't have inbuilt Modems.
@Jared Good question actually. The layout on the screen is different on the XLT to the Wildtrak I filmed recently, so I must’ve missed it. I’ll cover it when I make my video on FordPass,
Hi Webby, Still not getting any luck with my ranger, Local ford claim no keyless entry, Also the infotainment on mine doesn’t have the vehicle on the top right ? Any help appreciated .

Great video mate! I have an XLT with touring pack but doesn't have zone lighting. I can see this XLT had the touring pack were you able to find the zone lighting?
@Daniel Morzone Thank you I’m glad you enjoyed it. I had a look through the settings on the sync4 system in an XLT which had the touring pack today, and couldn’t find anything about the zone lighting, but I found it when I connected my phone via FordPass.
Great video, thank you. I have a question about interior ambient lighting in Wildtrak. Can you please tell me or give me informacion about this funcionality? Thank you again, great content!
@Jakub Jelinek Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the video. The ambient lighting can be turned on or off, and the brightness adjusted via the settings on the SYNC4 system.
@@WebbyOnCars Thank you so much for your answer, and how about colours, can it be changed?
@@jakubjelinek8212 no worries at all. It’s just one colour unfortunately
Webby can you have 2 phones connected for calls. Obviously only 1 phone for the android auto or apple play but can you connect 2 phones for calls in and out thank you.
@Sharron Miller I haven’t tried that yet. I know you couldn’t do that on the previous SYNC3 so I’m not sure if this new system will do it but I’ll investigate and see if it’s possible.
Great work webby, thanks. Wonder if third party mapping, ie Hema maps can be used through this sync4??
@Trickster I’m not sure to be honest
Hi Webby. How does the tyre monitors work on the Ranger. Does a low pressure alert come up on the dash. Thinking it may have pressure monitors in the tyres. My friend has a set up in his Hyundai Terracan with monitors screwed onto the tyre valves. Regards
@tyroneclarke1666 there are tyre pressure sensors in each wheel, and the info is displayed on the display in front of the driver.
@@WebbyOnCars Thank you for the info Webby. Cheers mate 👍
@@tyroneclarke1666 no worries at all
hello very nice tutorial that I keep in my files I have a question about remote start! can it be started by the iphone? how far does it work?
@navarrolaurent7548 Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Yes, you can start the car via the Fordpass app on your phone. it works anywhere in the world as long as you have phone reception.
@@WebbyOnCars thank you for your answer and all that without having a special subscription or having to have a sim card in the ford?
@@navarrolaurent7548 The car has a built in modem which has a SIM card, but thankfully there’s no cost to use this service which is awesome!
super that's great what a good idea they had!! tell me with this modem do you think we can do something else with it, like connecting it to a daschcam?

Brilliant video mate, I was just watching a video of Paul's @ CarExpert and was wondering when he was going to do one of these but looks like you beat him to it!
Question: Does the Apple CarPlay allow you to input numbers or search for contacts while the vehicle is in motion? My missus hates that I have to pass her the phone when i'm driving if she wants to call someone using the Sync 3 system in the 2021 Ranger. Thanks!
@MrCrazyivan01 Thank you, I hope you enjoyed the video. You can use Siri for most things on sync3 like making phone call’s. Have you tried using that instead?
@@WebbyOnCars Yes we have but if we need to use the keypad (like calling a 13 number or something) then the keypad is disabled. Siri sucks as well because of the multiple phone numbers some of our contacts we have (home, work, mobile etc). It would just be easier if they enabled those features and had a disclaimer that says "Do not operate when driving" therefore alleviating the need for indemnity if someone was to have an accident as a result.
@@MrCrazyivan01 I’ve never tried asking Siri to dial a number, but you can ask it to call different numbers for a contact ie. ‘call Steve mobile’ or ‘call Steve home’
When in Sand Mode in the Everest Platinum do I have to lower my tyre pressures manually on 21 inch tyres? … or would it be better to have the 18 inch tyres? Thanks for your informative vids
Even if you have 18" tyres you still need to lower your tyre pressures.
@stefan Dermur If you're going to be going off road a lot, you'd be better off with the 18' wheels and all terrain tyres.
Thanks for the video. Has anyone figured out how to save DAB radio stations to the list?
Can you tell me what the lights on top of the dash are ? The ones in the middle of the dash on top
@Colin Holmes Do you mean the ones for the passenger airbag?
@@WebbyOnCars yes
It has on and off but what is it?
@@colinholmes007 It tells you if the passenger airbag is switched on. It only works if it detects someone sitting in the passenger seat
Hi Webby, just a quick question..for markets without inbuilt Modems, how would we know that updates available that needs SYNCH4 to be updated..especially critical updates like security enhancements etc?
@Lance Sililai I wasn’t aware that you could get sync4 without the built in modem.
@@WebbyOnCars Yes..sorry I am from Papua New Guinea and that was what I have been told by the local dealership here. Our (PNG) builds don't have inbuilt Modems.
Same here in Saudi Arabia, which is why I believe I do not get 3 rows of Apple CarPlay icons when in Full screen!
@@WebbyOnCarssame here for Indonesia Domestic Market. No built in modem, hence no FordPass app for us.
Thanks Webby, saw it had a preference for air pressure value, does this mean the Ranger monitors Tyre pressure? Cheers John
@Akitsu Yes, all models from XLT and above have tyre pressure monitor as standard
@@WebbyOnCars 👌great news! thanks
@@akitsu349 No worries at all
Will the car autolock itself when you driveaway or you need to manually lock it?
@AndrewG_90 You have to lock it manually
Any chance they will add trailer reverse assist in the future
@Philip Rogers do you mean to help you reverse into a parking space?
@@WebbyOnCars sort of but with a trailer attached. I’ve seen it in some us trucks
Appreciate your time bro..
@Lance Sililai No worries at all
What years does this work for a ranger?
@himandude100 Thanks for watching the video. SYNC4 was introduced in 2022 on the Next Gen Ranger & Everest
Cheers mate, good job.
@paul pignataro Thank you I’m glad you enjoyed it
thanks webby very helpful
@Joel Pesino Thank you, I’m glad you found it useful
Must have missed where he went through the Android phone set up
@angelastephencosgrave9203 I don't own an android phone so couldn't test the setup process unfortunately.
Looks great until that screen packs up and then there's very little you can access.
@Solo Performer All vehicles have these infotainment systems now, so you’d like to think they’ll be reliable
@@WebbyOnCars Indeed you'd like to think so.
Will the sat nav get free updates?
@SmokingCausesLungCancer Yes it will
@@WebbyOnCars that’s great!
Zone lighting?
@Jared Good question actually. The layout on the screen is different on the XLT to the Wildtrak I filmed recently, so I must’ve missed it.
I’ll cover it when I make my video on FordPass,
And they won’t let you talk to someone on the phone while driving but no problem reprogramming a computer.
@ferri4195 Some people struggle just driving, let alone doing anything else!!😂
Hi Webby, Still not getting any luck with my ranger, Local ford claim no keyless entry, Also the infotainment on mine doesn’t have the vehicle on the top right ? Any help appreciated .
AWESOME
@stevo7415 Thank you
Great video thanks, how can you change the voice on the navigation on my 2022 ranger xls please
@MichaelMcCormick-oy9di Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Are you referring to the built in sat nav?
