Struggling to find the issue. I have a 2010 Lariat non nav pickup. It sat up for a few years while I had a company vehicle. I got it bac running but noticed that my AUX input and the rear defrost button did not work. Also, the CD player says CD error when you switch to that input. Also, I cannot get my PHONE button to work as well. I have attached a recent scan that shows some codes. I have tried doing a "soft reset" with the power and forward seek button, but that does not help. I check all fuses and they are good. I have also disconnected battery since I just changed it yesterday. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Clear all those codes and then try a disconnect battery for 5 minutes and reconnect. Sometimes when a vehicle has been powered up for years, then battery discharges completely, the ACM will not power up again and you have to replace it.

 

i will try clearing the codes. Am I right that the ACM is the CD player housing? And if that was bad, would any of the radio functions work at all?

 

Not powering up means nothing will work. However a power reset will clear corrupted microprocessors

 

The radio works, FM AM Sirius as well. But when I hit CD it says error. When I try to connect my phone nothing happens and when I hit the AUX button nothing happens. The USB also doesn't recognize when I plug one in.

My rear defrost button doesn't work either.

 

Rear defrost not working is probably a rear window defroster not working. Make sure the window is closed all the way. The items not working (AUX and PHone and USB) are related to the APIM not working which is a separate module accessed from the top of the dash under the center top cover plate/package tray. The CD error is likely from a bad CD drive, part of the ACM

 

So, what you recommend for a fix? I am currently looking at an Android screen "upgrade" but I cannot find an exact dash match. And trying to find an APIM online seems futile.
