  • OneControl and Ford Infotainment system

    Interesting occurrence.
    I was parked outside my 2022 381MS and started my 2024 F350 (build date Jan 2024) to get the AC going.
    While I was getting situated to leave, I noticed the OneControl appearing on Apps screen. I was 20 ft from the front of the coach. The coach was on shore power.
    This is the first time I had noticed OneControl on my truck. Or maybe it was the first time I was paying attention.

    I touched the OneControl icon and this screen appeared.

    When I selected Tank Levels, it did report tank levels.
    I also did select HVAC and it showed the three AC that are available to control. I did not try to control the HVAC.

    I understand the Bluetooth OneControl has a max range of 10-20m (30-60ft). I am positive I would have lost the OneControl at the end of my driveway.
    There were two other connections related to the truck hat popped up on my phone and I did not screenshot them.

    More research forthcoming on this.
    Has anyone else seen this on their tow vehicle?

    Yes, I've seen it on my 2024 F350 Limited. But I have no interest in using it, so I've never tried it.

      Looks like your cell phone is linked to your Ford Sync. That's what it should do because it gives you access to everything, including apps that are on your phone.

        Reacher...I believe you are correct with the Ford Sync4 connecting with my Android phone.
        I have had Android phones forever. I have never had any app from my phone appear on my Sync3 F150 or Sync3 2021 F350.
        Not sure I will ever use the OneControl from my truck.
        Just cool that it popped up.
