Initializing the BX-FD2
• Turn the key to ignition, the L.E.D. inside the interface by the 16-pin harness
will turn on solid Red.
• After 30 seconds the L.E.D. will turn off for a few seconds, and then flash up
to 16 times depending on what radio it sees connected to it, and then turn off
again. Refer to the L.E.D. feedback section for more information.
Note: If the L.E.D. does not turn off, it is not communicating to the vehicle.
Turn the key off, check all connections, and then try again.
Adjusting the BX-FD2
Audio level adjustment (Sony/THX models only):
• With the vehicle and radio turned on, turn the volume up 3/4 of the way.
• With a small screwdriver, adjust the potentiometer clockwise to raise the audio
level; counterclockwise to lower the audio level.
• Once at a desired level, your audio level adjustment is complete.

Extra features
SyNC, rear seat entertainment (RSE), satellite radio (SAT), and AuX-IN:
• If your vehicle comes equipped with SYNC, RSE, SAT, or AUX-IN,
the BX-FD2 can retain these features.
Note: Most Ford radios have SAT built into the factory radio, so this feature is lost if so.
•
Change the source of the radio to AUX-IN; SYNC audio will play if SYNC has been activated.
• Either the vehicles display, or the optional AX-LCD (sold separately)
will display the SYNC information.
Note: If SYNC information is shown on the factory radio, the AX-LCD will be required.
• Listed below are the functions of the AX-LCD:
Arrow up—Channel up.
Arrow down—Channel down.
Enter—Selects current item on the screen.
Return/ESC—Exits to the previous screen.
• To access RSE, SAT, or AUX-IN, press and hold the MEDIA button on the steering wheel
for 2 seconds. This will switch to the next available source in your vehicle. Each time the
MEDIA button is pressed for 2 seconds the source will change. The sequence of sources
are SYNC/RSE/SAT/AUX-IN. To temporarily disable SYNC/RSE/SAT/AUX-IN, press and
hold the MEDIA button for 3 seconds. To turn it back on, press the MEDIA button for 2
seconds. There will be a visual confirmation of what source you are on from the factory
screen, or the AX-LCD. This screen will also provide SYNC and SAT information.
