Which fuse is sync?
Hey all -
Hoping you can help me with 2 questions:
1) My Sync system stopped working (completely) today.
Nothing. I hit the aux button on my radio and it reverts back to FM stations, there's no phone prompts, and basically, I've got no sync whatsoever. After a little research it appears that (shockingly) I'm not the first to experience this and (luckily) there are several simple solutions. I'm going with the "remove the fuse" option before I try the "remove the black battery cable" option, but want to make sure I pull the right fuse. I've seen two references - one to fuse #13 and one to fuse #2. Which one is it? I have a 2011 XTL supercab F150.
Also, this is normally something I would get from the owners manual, but my truck didn't come with one. When I asked the dealer about it, I was told that the newer trucks don't have them?? Struck me as odd, but then again, I'm here on an online forum that didn't exist back when I bought my last two cars!
Oh, and if it ISN'T fuse #13 (which I pulled already), is the world going to come to an end when I put it back in?

Edit:
Well, I answered both of my own questions - Funny, I searched forever before I came here and asked the question, then continued searching and found exactly what I needed immediately. LOL, typical.
Anyway, for others in the same predicament - It is Fuse #2 in the fusebox on the passenger side (under the glovebox). And the manual can be found here:

and the fuse box layout can be found here:
