Wi-Fi Issues
Possible solution
Possible cause
Issue
Position the vehicle close to the hotspot with
the front of the vehicle facing the hotspot
direction and remove obstacles if possible.
Other Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, microwave and cord-
less phones may cause interference.
Weak signal probably due to distance from
the hotspot, obstruction or high interference.
Disconnecting after successful connection.
If the vehicle is equipped with heated wind-
shield, try positioning the vehicle so that the
windshield is not facing the hotspot. If you
have metallic window tinting but not on the
windshield, position the vehicle to face the
hotspot. If all windows are tinted, you can
open the windows in the direction of the
hotspot if that is feasible.
There may be an obstruction between SYNC
3 and the hotspot.
Poor signal seen by Sync despite being near
a hotspot.
Try to remove other obstructions that may
impact signal quality such as opening the
garage door.
Please set the network to visible and try again.
The hotspot was defined as a hidden network.

networks.
