I think Utter will still do mobile service. But when I called Five Star Lewisville, they said they no longer do mobile service for software updates. They had too many issues. Morons don't realize the issue is likely the tech not connecting a power supply. They offered the pickup/drop-off service instead so I did that. I had them do the three CSPs I had at the time. They were pretty quick and did all the updates.
Yeah - new scheduler/service advisor at Utter - Tiffany I think it was, just told me I was too far away for them now. Tracy at 5 Star did check with a tech, I think they knew agreed they needed to get power supply, but they started down the road of they knew it would take all day.

So I'm choosing the least of my evils. I think at least at Utter I'll call the guy that has helped me a couple of times and let him set it up for me.

Well there’s all of those considerations plus the fact that Ford still hasn’t told their techs that this IPMA/PSCM script is broken, and unless you know to separately run the IPMA Configuration tool in FDRS afterwards you’ll likely end up with a partially completed update that will result in you still having a PSCM update in your available software list. This is an issue that many of us who’ve done this update have known about for what….four months now?

I still need to get this done and hesitate for the very reason that it might not get done correctly.

Think I'll put this off until late spring when I can ride the Harley they while play with the truck for x days getting it done right.

I'd love to talk directly with the EV tech and feel him out for knowledge and attention to details, unfortunately the Service advisors & Manager got them pretty well hidden and out of reach.

I had it done and ended up with the tiny 360 view. I changed it back with FORScan and just lived with the menu button to get to the camera views. When I updated to 6.14, it seems that applied/configured whatever the tech didn't as I now have the correct button layout. Don't know if it was a coincidence that the update happen to run the config or not. Point being that you could get it done, fix the view yourself, then let a future update perform the config.

Or bring a case of beer to the technician as an incentive to get'r done right the first time.
