CarPlay Stopped Working on Upgrade to iPhone 17 Pro + iOS 26

Have a 2019 Ford Edge w/ Sync 3.4, wired carplay. Worked fine w/ iPhone 16 Pro on iOS 18. Upgraded to iPhone 17 Pro, came w/ iOS 26, carplay hasn't worked since.

I've kept trying throughout new iOS 26 releases, lately with iOS 26.3 Public Beta 1, still not working.

Have a long running issue with updates and system diagnostics as I've tried over the last few months: FB20739050

There is also a Apple support community thread with issues like this (and a ton of others) - my first post there was https://discussions.apple.com/thread/256138283?answerId=261613103022&sortBy=oldest_first#261613103022

I'm hoping here in the developer forums someone can maybe take a look at the feedback item and various system diagnostics to pin-point the issue. I'm a little concerned it's still not fixed this far into the follow-up point releases of iOS 26.

Appreciate any help, thanks!
