There's probably a specific 'how-to' post somewhere on this forum, but the search function isn't helping me to find it:

I've tried multiple times to set up my phone as a key, but each time have been unsuccessful, despite the FordPass messages telling me that it's been successfully added (it wasn't).

My phone is an iPhone 11 Pro Max, running iOS 15.3. My MME was built 10/19, and yesterday received the 2.4.1 OTA update.

I've tried restarting the phone, turning bluetooth on and off on both the phone and MME, reset PAAK in the car, 'Forget this device' on the phone for the MME before trying again. Each time it spins for 2 minutes, and then I get this message:

Ford Mustang Mach-E PAAK workaround? IMG_7525


I've tried opening BT on the phone, but it just spins and doesn't find the MME.

If anyone has any tips on how I can get this connected, I'd appreciate it!

Have you already tried to delete the app / data and tried to reinstall?

Thanks…it’s pretty cool to see my grille design being ‘adopted!’ Yes, I too love the red, along with the rest of the car. Fun to be driving such a unicorn, too!

For me it was my having connected to CarPlay via BT before setting up PAAK that was the issue.
