I dropped mine of Sunday night for a "half day on Monday." At the end of Monday I got a call saying the update "failed twice" and they they needed it overnight to try again in the morning. Apparently its now halfway in and hopefully Ill be able to pick it up in a few hours...

Update on mine, update is still going we are at 20 hours. Dealer wants to keep it running until the afternoon. Seems insane as I'm reading this bulletin... I am I wrong for telling them to stop it and try again?

Did they fix it? They did the same update on a lightning I was about to take delivery of, but the software update failed and brick’d the IPMA module and am told they now have to replace it, but the part is back-ordered.

They got it to run the next day for the normal expected time, my dealer didn’t hook up a 12v charger right away.

Just got back from the dealer. Apparently the 3rd time (and second day) they tried it, it went through. Truck is acting normal as far as I can tell.

Took mine in for the bed camera and they pushed this update as well as the frunk module. I'm now afflicted with the tiny 360 view :(
Do you have to have FDRS access to fix it or can it be done with just Forscan?

I think @rugedraw figured out the FORScan way here. Start here and let us know if it works:

I had mobile tech out today to do this. When he was done it was showing the tiny screen. I pulled out the sheet that shows the fix. He applied it and back to normal.

@Zprime29 As mentioned above, it can be fixed with either, but obviously no point in rewarding Ford with $50 to fix their boo-boo when you can take the black market route and FORScan it back.
