So about a week back the bluetooth on my Avic-f90bt just stopped working and syning with my mobile phone. I kept trying to find devices from both my handset and my Avic....but no go. Then it worked once after trying for about 1/2 hour, but as soon as I stopped and turned off the car and restarted, there was no connection found. I also notice the flashing blue light hardly if ever comes on.

I contacted Pioneer and under the "Bluetooth S/W" mine is empty. I tried loading the latest s/w via a usb device and after 10-15 minutes is came back with an error message. I've tried this twice and both times the exact same result.

BTW, this is a pure stock unit with the 2.0 rel and I was hoping that someone on this forum may have some ideas on what I can do to get my BT working again?

Get it fixed.

I am having the same exact issue!

This is rediculous...just got email from Pioneer saying that I would need to send it out to them for a flat fee of $200 to fix. No way! I spent $1k on this item I expect it to work. Any help here?

Well I ended up removing the unit and sending it in (I still have 90 days left in my 2 year warranty). They replaced the unit and the new unit works fine. From what I was told, there is no fix for the BT issue other than full replacement.

Good luck though
