You won't be able to update everything with the Nano. The CCM update will not work.

Does the lack of the CCM update prevent the BC update from working?

I would think so as that is the cruise control module.

In better terms, if you don't do your CCM which will also do the CRM, PSCM & IPMA sequentially you will not have BC availability.

Update day, I hope. Would someone kindly run my VIN to see if my truck updated the mothership yet.

Hey BOB can i do all my other updates and fight with TCU last ? Or does TCU have to be done first ?

Typically if an update involves multiple modules and fdrs doesn’t run through them all sequentially it claims the update ended in an error state because the other updates didn’t run

Not sure if what I said made any sense

It was running through them all sequentially and was doing the IPMA when it abruptly stopped and threw and error code (I did revert all modules back to stock before starting any of this.) I restarted all the updates and now am stuck here with IPC and GWM both giving me this error.

Did you leave usb in the truck ? I did that and it closes the comma down .

I know the update went through because it cleared from fdrs but I never saw anything about update succesfull and Im not getting any notification I have bluecruise. Other then the sync screen having a toggle to turn on hands free. But I do not believe its actually connected. Tried again and no Bluectruise

I think we are all a bit stressed out. We are all trying to help everyone as best of our ability and we don’t mean any harm when we say things. We all

WHat I am meaning is if the USB drive is still oin the USB slot of the truck it wont communicate

 

[Jesse-Infotainment]

I must be missing some detail, instructions said FDRS would prompt you to use a USB when required? I have the usb and it was formatted correctly and in the computer, though it never asked for one.

Only cewrtain modules update through USB. If you are doing the big 4 module update they all are can bus. APIM, Gateway<IPC, TCU will go through USB Gateway and IPC and TCU have can bus as a back up

 

[Fordphanatic]

I just ordered a nano (can't justify the money for a mongoose at this point) just to be clear, I should still be able to get the BC update with the nano, correct?

No you can NOT get BC witha nano. You need a mongoose

The USB was not in the slot

I understand. FDRS never prompted me to insert a USB stick to download the update to, maybe something is failing there. Not sure what I’m doing wrong, followed the instructions carefully up to this point.
