Hi, i've just bought a 2008 Galaxy Ghia and was told by the salesman the stereo had bluetooth built in but i cant seem to bond my phone with it. The owners handbook doesnt seem to say how to actually bond the phone with the car. Can anyone help?

If you look at one of my old posts, you will see I had a full hands free kit fitted when the car was new. I was told at the time that if you change the phone you just change the holder, Not true. Most new phones don't have any connection on the bottom, just a jack plug to charge it. Mine has got sat/nav, but it will still be the same problem with a standard radio. I rang around lots of people and one guy said, it will operate with bluetooth. So I got in the car, turned on the radio and the phone, went to phone settings, bluetooth, seach for devices and yahoo up came CF 1234 or some such number, press yes to pair with device, job done. Now when I get in the car you hear a beep and it works through all the speakers. Now I've got to find a cigarette lighter charger for long runs. I don't know If it will help with whatever you are trying to do, but it may help people who have the problem I had.

I got a 2008 2.0TDCi Galaxy Ghia with the DVD Navigation.

 

I have been able to bond both my Nokia 6680 and N95 quite easily.

 

First you have to switch on Bluetooth in the Galaxy.

 

Next on your mobile start bluetooth and then search for Ford Audio.

 

It should pick it up and then enter the default code 0000 on your mobile.

 

Also set to Remote sim to Yes on your mobile if there is an option

 

I now have 2 registered mobile which switches on automatically when you get into the car.

 

I think all the mk3 galaxy will work in s similar fashion

 

Hope this helps

Hi there, sorry if this topic has been covered elsewhere have searced but cannot find

 

I have a late 2009 Galaxy Ghia with a CD Sat Nav unit (SD Card slot version)

 

My phone used to bond with the unit each time the phone was in the car, but had to have phone repaired which wiped the settings out, have rebonded phone with car unit as below and the book, but each time I get in the unit says the phone is not available and the phone asks permission to bond to the unit - very frustrating, which step have I missed??

 

Anyone know please? :)

Many thanks

You need to set phone to ALLOW paired connections, and the radion can only take 6 paired phones in its memory, delete previous owners?
