BLUETOOTH PASSWORD

Hi everyone,
 
Recently bought an 07 Outlander from an auction with NAVI. Tried to set up my phone with Bluetooth, and boom..... asks for a 4 number password.
 
Can anyone help?

Ive always used 0000 , but im not sure if that will work for you.
 
Its kinda a defualt password for bluetooth stuff.

You can use any password you want.  Then you enter the same password when your phone asks for it.  You only have to do this once, as its part of the "pairing" process.

Does anyone know if the 4-digit Code/password can be changed or updated and how?  When would you ever use this code after pairing? 
 
I posted a previous bluetooth question regarding the use of multiple phones http://www.mitsubishiforum.com/m_206005/tm.htm) and wonder if the password thing is what's messing up my phone from being seen by the system.  When i press the talk button it only brings up the screen for typing in a phone number and it never asks who to call or what phone to use.  My wife's phone answers/makes calls with no problems.

The password is for you to set. People usually do the last four of their cell number. Then you enter that "pin" number into your phone to verify the pairing.
 
The Outlanders BT is not a normal BT system. Its a "Hands-free BT" system, which is probably the reason for the pin #.

tdford,
I recall setting the password, entering it, and they system and my phone saying the pairing is complete.  After that i paired my wife's (different password) and now mine won't show connected when i'm in the car.  I've tried the BT talk button, the touchscreen buttons, etc but it won't ask me which phone to use or connect my phone to the system.  I guess i could try deleting my phone and re-pairing it, although i already did that once.
 
Is the system supposed to show a list of phones paired to it?

cuffty, maybe you need to use the same pin # for all phones? Changing the password might of messed things up witht the two phones. Makes sense since there is no reason to have different ones because there is priority settings...

That's a good thought tdford.  This weekend i'll go ahead and delete all phones and start over with the same password to see what happens.  I did use different priorities for both our phones so maybe the different pins are screwing things up.
 
I hope you can delete the passwords and not just the phones.

Deleting the pairing deletes the password.

I used "0000"  when I first paired my phone, a Motorlola Razr... The problem I have is that each time I switch the engine off and then restart.. such as after parking for a few minutes,, I have to go through the whole pairing process again. On my Garmin GPS the pairing is automatic once set up.
Is it possible to do the same with the Outlander?? It is so time consuming that these days I just dont bother!

I need to RE-SET the bluetooth password, i can't even set up a new phone, everything is locked, will disconnecting the battery help??? I have tried 0000 and bunch of other numbers....

I'm not sure i understand your problem.  Have you tried to delete your currently paired phone and re-pair it?  Is that what is locking up?  If so i'm sure disconnecting the battery will probably reset it, but you'll have to reset everything else as well.
 
If you have the MMCS i believe there is a "reset all" function.  I don't know if it's connected to the BlueTooth, but you could try that first.
 
If it's none of these, are you sure you have the settings on your phone correct?  (phone enabled and visibility set to visible)
 
Hope one of these ideas works for you.

Delete the PAIRING

Hey, I got a reply from Mitsibuishi about the Passcode for the Bluetooth !!!! Will have to try as soon as I get home.
 
Per your request, here is the information we have on file in regards to clearing a Passcode on the 07 Outlander. We have noticed in the earlier released vehicles that this process does not work and at that point the system may need to be replaced.
If these instructions do not clear the passcode, we would encourage you to contact your dealership.

1. Power the HandsFree system up (ignition on for >5 seconds). Make sure no button presses are made.

2. Hold down the HANG-UP button for 2 seconds and release, 3 consecutive times within 10 seconds of the initial button press.

3. HandsFree system will clear the passcode and set the passcode to disabled.

4. For confirmation of success, press the SPEECH button and ensure the module says, "HandsFree system ready".

Any questions, feel free to contact our Customer Service Team at 888-702-4100, we are available Mon-Fri, 7am-8pm, CT.


Sincerely,

Mitsubishi HandsFree Customer Support

Tried this, and it didn't work. Visited a dealersing in Buffalo area, they couldn't help me either. They just said that it will take a while, make an appointment and they'll have to contact Mits.

I have you tried to delete all the bluetooth settings on your mobile phone first?

Yeah,  I had a similiar problem with my 07 XLS bluetooth.  After working perfect for several months,  all of a sudden the bluetooth started asking for a password.  Problem was, I never set a password and trying to guess it was fruitless.  This problem was only solved by the dealer installing a new bluetooth module.  I never could figure out how a password set all by itself.  Dealer told me to set a password right away with the new module, since they have seen other Outies with the same issue.
