For the past 3 months, my OTA updates have been failing on the 1.7.1 update and my automatic updates button was greyed out and I could not turn it back on. This seems to be a common issue reported on here so I was just trying to sit tight while Ford figured it out.

Today I noticed that I can turn back on my automatic updates. The widget still says my last update was a failed update 3 weeks ago, but something seems to have changed. Anyone else notice this? Hopefully, that means updates are going to be coming soon, and one day I will even get my bluecruise.

Last night my truck was acting weird and the exterior zone lights wouldn’t turn off for about twenty minutes while we were at the park. When I got back I checked the update tab was blue again. Today I checked and the update tab is now grayed out. I didn’t get a notification of any update.

I took mine to dealer and they said they can't update. I've been on 1.7.1 since December and been waiting on Bluecruise as well. I called the OTA team and they said the updates are VIN specific and nothing could be done to push the updates.

After a brief glimmer of hope, my automatic updates are back off. On the widget it has not tried to install the 1.7.1 update since early Feb.

I have found performing a hard reset twice in a row sometimes allows the auto updates to become configurable again, but then it goes back to greyed out eventually. Hard reset is holding power and >>| (track forward) at the same time for 10 seconds.
