iOS 13.1.2 and Ford SYNC

After updating to iOS 13.1.2 my phone won’t play music or any audio when connected to Ford Sync Gen 1.1. My phone connects just fine while making phone calls, but as soon as I hit the media button on my dashboard the sound cuts out and won’t play anything. Is anyone else struggling with this and if so what have you done to fix it?

My Carplay Multi-Media has stopped working!! My carplay Multi-Media has stopped working! Why has Apple (some update) ruined my iPhone’s ability to play Apple Music through my 2011 Venza’s radio system? It was working just fine until recently. I have an iPhone Pro Max. The car shows that it is playing but NO SOUND comes out?! It also shows it is playing on the iPhone and there is no sound there, either.

KIA keeps disconnecting/reconnecting CarPlay as I drive I have a 2020 Kia Optima and I have had no issues with CarPlay until the past week or so. It seems to disconnect from my iPhone 13 pro max and then reconnect. I can tell it is doing this because, for instance, if I am listening to a song, the song will start to play out of my phone. The odd part is that my car’s display will still show my music and the counter for the song continues to move as if it is connected. After a few seconds, it plays back through the car. I have attempted to disconnect and reconnect it to my car which did nothing. I have also tried multiple different apple cords to no avail. I have no issues plugging in headsets or any other audio to my phone and having it not disconnect. I play drums and use my phone to plug into an electronic drum set and the sound never cuts out during playback through lightning/aux. is there any resolution to this?

Hello imxxVicious.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.

If I'm understanding correctly, since updating the iOS , music wont play when selecting the Media option with the Ford Sync car kit. I will be glad to assist.

Please see the following resource for some steps that can help resolve this:
