    I picked up a used 2009 Sport and there seems to be an issue when attempting to add a phone. I can get it into pairing mode, but when it asks for a phone name and I speak, it just keeps saying "Sorry, etc. etc." and goes in a loop asking for a phone name. Seems like a mic issue but I'm not sure what the next step should be. Everything is factory and I have a JBL system.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

    Disconnect the battery for awhile? Unplug it and plug it back in they say.

    Replaced the battery as it was super old when I bought the truck in May.
    No one else has had this problem?

    Heads up, if you care about your speaker system I’d avoid using this feature at all costs.

    The phone system they put into these trucks are way too loud for the speakers in them.. my truck had the driver side tweeter buzzing pretty bad when I got it.. one attempt to pair my phone showed why that was. The guy before my had used the phone feature and it completely rekt that tweeter.

    Thanks for the help, but I already have these documents. Main problem is that the TSB states "Vehicle must have a phone previously paired to the system for this procedure to work", which I can't do since the system isn't hearing me during initial setup. More than likely a bad mic, but who knows...

    I was wondering if it was just me that thought it was a bit loud when attempting initial setup, now I know that's how they all are.

    If anyone else has any ideas I'm up for hearing them, but at this point it may just be time to go aftermarket with a Carplay head unit...

    Yep. Way too loud and all out of that one tweeter. I’m not a audiophile but it pissed me off to know that someone engineered the system that way. And then that the driver before me abused the hell out of it.
