ECU module programming guide using FDRS

Lucky! I’m still waiting for mine to change from “Activation Pending”. Hope this isn’t a US/Canada thing where is Canadians get shafted and have to continue to wait.

Keep us posted if it does change, curious to see if there is a border issue too.

I believe you do. I was running on BC highways today and nothing. Just regular hands free.

I am still in the activation pending club. I have used BC this morning and this afternoon. Worked both times flawlessly. Not sure why I’m still pending but it works so for now oh well.

Just updated my GWM and was getting ready to update APIM and got this:

Guess they are getting quick now. Updating APIM now. How far I’ve come in 2 months time!

I dont have any activation notices at all. Nothing. Just that short date: 10-09-2022

OMG... this reboot loop is so annoying... How hard is it for Ford to return any messages on the display about why it didn't boot into the new update?

Like a low battery, no parking brake, too hot outside, etc.

I know I need my battery replaced but it usually charges up to 95% health.
Seriously though something is chewing through power today. I have my charger on 20amp and it's barely bringing the voltage above 12.7.
It's never done that before.

I hate to see you in the same spot I was. I had the restart loop for a week. I replaced the battery and literally the next engine start the USB successfully finished. You results may not be the same, but that's what worked for me.

You'll be fine with anything 12v or higher. Why don't you fail it like I stated earlier and go the CANBUS route? You would've been done already.

It's the APIM update (800Mb)

The activation pending is online in my ford account under connected services. Nothing on FordPass or in email.

Just a follow up, it's showing good to go on the website as well. APIM update in progress and will be on I-10 shortly after to test it out.

I understand but you're still fighting the restart loop...

I didn't think you could update the APIM via the canbus? I don't ever remember seeing that as an option.

You can't update the APIM over CAN that I'm seeing. That would take a month

 

[Bob_Mac]

Bob, you test it yet?

Not yet but will once I get off of work I will...

Then leave the stick in and drive around for a bit to get your battery up to speed and it will be about 5 hours or so. Why not let the update occur overnight while in your garage?

I wasn’t going to ask but now I want to know how bad I have it. If someone is willing to look for me that is.

Not in my online dashboard either. That disappeared weeks ago.
