Is there a way to fix or replace the USB port that's connected to the stereo?
Has Ford decided not to cover this under their warranty?Did you ever get this resolved? I now have a 2020 transit and the USB hub is also dead. The dealership wants diagnostic fees to troubleshoot.
My ‘15 long tall extended tranny has always done the same thing… charges the van battery from the iPhone battery.Only 100 miles on my 2021 AWD and neither USB port seems to be working after trying a couple different cords that we know work fine. How hard can this be in the 21st century?
I should clarify that it doesn’t charge my iPhone, makes the lightning bolt flash a couple times and then starts to drain the iPhone battery, exactly opposite of what I need. I don’t really know if communication or what ever else USB ports and cords do functions. I just need charging feature.
Even some USB/USB-C chargers produce really dirty power. Some engineer at Google used to keep a list of tested chargers/cables that met USB spec, which had more that failed than passed iirc.My current suggestion to customers charging apple products is to use the 120 vac from their inverter and the original 120 vac charger that comes from apple to charge.
