It hinges on the specific issue you are experiencing with the device: whether it's unresponsive to touch but still displays content, or if the screen remains completely black. Let's assume it's the latter scenario. A likely culprit could be a blown fuse; begin by checking the relay located in the fuse panel under the driver's side dashboard. If all seems well there, the problem may lie with the infotainment unit itself. To attempt a reset, simultaneously press and hold the Seek Up and Audio Power buttons on the unit for around 5 seconds. If successful, the screen should briefly go blank before displaying the Ford logo. Another troubleshooting step involves resetting the entire electrical system: disconnect the negative battery cable, turn on the headlights for a few minutes, then wait about 15 minutes for the system memory to clear before reconnecting the battery. If these actions don't resolve the issue, it may be necessary to consider replacing the infotainment unit.

Here's a revised version: On the synchronization screen, click the menu button. Scroll down using the arrow button until you see the synchronization settings on the screen. Hit ok. Continue scrolling down with the arrow button until you reach the master reset option on the screen.

The fuse that controls the focus screen is labeled as number 67. If you inspect the fuse and find it to be in good condition, keep it out for at least 20 minutes. Upon reinserting the fuse, the system should restart automatically - just like mine did.
