ECU module programming guide using FDRS

LMAO... on the eye candy thing!!!

I just checked FRDS for mine offline it doesn't show any updates for me. I wonder if I should just perform a PMI on my IPC to kick some shit in gear.
I really don't want to have to get another license for FRDS when Ford decides to trickle this out.

I wound up buying a 30 day in case I did in fact have issues with my APIM as stated by the Ford Tech so too bad you live so far away. Here's the crazy thing about it, I called the dealer yesterday and told them I got the update to take and they were stunned so they insisted on reimbursing me the money! Made my day for sure.

Mine is now showing the IPC update which I'm going to install right now.

I'm guessing they're sending out the updates now as in today since you didn't have it earlier...

I like that the IPC is updateable via USB. I thought I read somewhere that others had to update via CAN and it was taking 6+ hours.

It said 12 mins minimum when I started and I was at 20 when that honey walked by so... no clue.

Mine showed the restart prompt after about 10minutes it was only 177Mb in files. I shut it off and started my 12 min timer. I have 8 minutes until I return and see if it was successful.

The install until restart is 12mins so you should be done....

Well, 12min wait with the door open didn't work... Trying 32 minutes this time.

Hmmmm...

I would close the door and lock it when I was in shut-down-restart mode.
I really don't know if it helps, but I have an old Porsche and if you don't lock it up it doesn't completely shut down the bus for a couple of days.

Get the restart loop?

I need to stop looking in this thread...

 

[tonesto7]

Well 30 mins didn't do it so now I'm in the restart loop

 

[tonesto7]

Ugh... I'm not playing this game with the restart crap. I'm updating it over CAN right now.

These IPC's have fans on them. As soon as the second stage of the programming hit the fan came on and they are surprisingly loud when everything in the vehicle is powered off.
