Ford F150 with PX6 unit does not connect with android

Hello,
I have a Ford f150 Raptor with the PX6 unit. See picture for version info:
The unit works fine with my Iphone but I recently switched to a Google Pixel Android telephone.
Now Android Auto does not connect despite the Bluetooth works fine. Also the wired connection via cable to the head unit does not work.
When I start the Zlink app it is stuck in "CONNECTING".
I went to a specialized store that installs and sells all kind of Android Radios and they also could not get it to work, neither with my Google not their Samsung Android phone. They connected the head unit to WIFI and tried to update it, but no success.
I do not want to switch back to Apple Iphone just because of my car head unit.
Any ideas what I could do?
