Bluetooth not responding in 2010 kia forte?

Asked by Cheylany Nov 01, 2014 at 05:25 PM about the 2010 Kia Forte EX

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My Bluetooth isn't working in my car. It's not the phone, when i press anything, pair,
Bluetooth, the display reads "listening" but there is no 'beep' that would usually occur.
And it doesn't respond to anything I say. This is a recent issue, happened about 2 weeks
ago and is still an issue. So is there anyway I can fix this without having to bring the
vehicle in? It isn't discoverable on any phone device either.

Make sure you have the security code for the radio first

I have the same problem as the original post; 'the display reads "listening" but there is no 'beep' that would usually occur. And it doesn't respond to anything I say.' Also, when my Kia's Bluetooth did work, sort of, a couple weeks ago, I couldn't hear the party I'd called but they could hear me. Now I can't even get into the 'Setup' mode to try to fix whatever's gone wrong. I took my cell phone in to my service provider because I was having issues with not being able to receive/send texts with attachments & all the customer svc. rep did was take the battery out of my cell, turn it around & put it back in my cell. That fixed the issue with sending/receiving texts but didn't help the Bluetooth issue in my 2010 Forte. I hope I don't have to pay someone to fix this issue!!!
