Hi all,
The Ranger sat parked in the garage for roughly 10 days, and I can no longer stay connect to my home Wi-Fi. I gave it a master reset, but no luck. I am able to connect to the wifi, but the next key cycle it will drop it again. I also noticed that when I turn off the radio, it doesn’t go back to the previous channel, it defaults to an AM preset station. I figured that the battery would be the culprit since I'm still on the original. It did have a low charge, but I was able to trickle charge it overnight. Unfortunately same results.
Any help would be appreciated before I reach out to the Ford Sync help line.

Thanks
Matt

Ford Sync chat line was nice, but no real help. They told me that it should remember the last wifi connection, but it doesn't, I think its time for a new battery. :headbang:
