My screen came back after one day I'm happy to report.
I freaked out that I may have caused my issue after replacing the front and rear speakers of my B&O stereo. The center dash speaker has a large hole underneath that speaker. I placed sound deadening material over the hole along with...
This is why I bought one. I bet it's even money that Ford will shut this company down on making these soon. Eightlug is trying to make a newer version of the fender badge and they're probably running into a brick wall with Ford.
If I were in your shoes I would have not given them a $500 nonrefundable re-stocking fee.
The mere mention of this at the beginning would have me looking elsewhere. That talk is BS. I read these types of threads and I am amazed at how people subject themselves to the abuse of dealers.
Good luck.
Well my screen died this afternoon. Oddly the back up camera works and the radio station I had it on still plays, adjusts volume but that's it.
This sucks.
Greetings
I wanted to share my experience with following OP's write up.
Unlike the OP I was not disappointed with the B&O system. I really enjoyed using Carplay and I thought it sounded really good. While playing the radio, the sound wasn't as good but the sound coming from the front speakers...
What's interesting about the MIC on my 2 door is the comes and goes. I suspect that it depends on the outside temperature. Very noticeable during temps above 70 degrees. After completing this fix my noise is now in the back corners. Stereo volume goes up to prevent me from going crazy.
But this...
One of Henry Ford's most famous quotes (which I maybe paraphrasing) was " I would give away the cars if I could maintain the parts contract".
This is nothing new. Building your own Bronco piece by piece would be at least 150k.
