ECU module programming guide using FDRS

[Newton]

I don’t see how an update could be approved for dealer install without being approved for OTA (unless it didn’t work over the air for some reason). If the update is not safe then it is not safe whether it comes from a dealer or over the air.

I guess I just have a bad feeling about this, it seems like every truck has a different combination of software. The plus of buying a mass-market product is that there are millions of people with an identical product so you really can form a good idea of how well it will work and what situations to avoid. If every truck is basically running hand built software then I could easily have the only truck where Version 23.1 of one module conflicts with version 15.3 of another and the brakes stop working if I turn on Sirius XM.

BCM will not prevent the APIM from releasing. Just messaged you.....you do have an APIM pending.

Yep, I'm shocked by that. It wasn't available when I updated over Thanksgiving weekend. Pretty rude that I have to buy another 2-day license to get it.

It is, however, good news that it's back in the list for 22s. Thanks for checking.

Sent. Thanks

A green dot indicated that module has a pending update. APIM is there.

Jasin, I am in Arlington VA and have all the needed update hardware. DM me and we can work the detals out.

So 13 pending updates! Wow...absolutely unreal. I really appreciate you doing this!

Be careful with that IPMA update. It can be problematic on 22s, though it should be fine with the 12V fully charged and the appropriate power supply. And make sure to run the 360 camera config for him afterward, and if you have Forscan, do the BC1.3 feature enablement. But even without the new features, that one is a real game changer for BlueCruise lane centering.

Serial mean the cluster Serial doesnt match what ford has on their server.

The easiest way to get around the serial number is to PMI the IPC..

Are you aware of the IPC ever being replaced?

PMI will associate the serial with your truck. PMI will also update.

Keep in mind the IPC update is two parts. So make sue to pay attention.

First half is USB

Second is can bus.

Need to do both halves sometimes people get click happy and miss it

I tried the PMI yesterday and it did not work!
I even restarted everything, including FDRS and it did not work drove around today and tried it again and it is now working??
PMI done! APIM in process!

Sweet! I've seen this happen. Sometimes you just need to turn everything off, give it time to settle, and then come back to it.

I haven't asked Ruged in a while, but I'd wager I'm behind by about double that. I have the mongoose, will be ordering a USB and power supply soon. With a little luck I'll have myself up to date by the end of the month.

Think I had 23 during my 6 hours of fun including two 6GB APIMs. Remote desktop is a live saver. Had the laptop turned toward the screen with the webcam on so I could track the progress.

Now the APIM says it failed after doing the USB portion, but it did change my icons on the top of the screen to the newer type with the dots, truck, etc., which I did not have before?? so I question whether it truly failed, but I will probably try it again tomorrow… FDRS can be crazy sometimes!

What Sync version does it say you're on in the "about sync" screen?

It's definitely ping-ponging. I had the APIM update appear in my list sometime in September. It was still there on Nov 26 but gone on Nov 27th. Had it checked today and it was back. Then tonight I got the 10.1.0 update which I believe might be the APIM. I'll ask someone to check tomorrow but I wouldn't be surprised if it's gone again. My Sync version is now 24127 which I believe is the latest. I have the Public Charging and Stingray karaoke app.

Hold off on the license, you may be getting it OTA.
EDIT; catching up and saw you got 10.1.0. See if it clears the APIM.

24127 revision 1270 is what I ended up with after updating everything on my 23.
