Hey thanks for the info. When I try to run it I get the error “A server with the specified hostname could not be found.” Any ideas what could be wrong?
My bad. I think I started you too far back, Ford has modified the APIs a few times and it throws this stuff off. Try here: and look for updates in the last few months by tinybtg. This really smart person rebuilt all these when the APIs changed back in October I think it was.

Have you received -ANY- OTA updates yet?
No ..... there's no way to tell.
Yes, keep a manual log of what most recently received and every update from this point forward.

The Sync system shows what level your truck is at, but that doesn't reflect any of the other ten's of tens' of modules in your truck that receive updates separately over time.

Your authorized Ford tech and independent tech's with software and subscription data services can review what the truck has received and what might be waiting to install.

I was afraid of that. They updated at the dealer so i have no baseline.

At some point you will begin receiving OTA's 3-6 months after sale.

I was not getting over the air updates. They said now that they did the recall I should start receiving them.

When I opened FordPass this morning I saw a message about an update flash by and disappear. When I got in I checked SW updates and saw this. Last updates were 6.8 and DOR-2.
