May I ask why you're doing the TSB?
Because the 1.7.1 equivalent will not kick off. I mean eventually it would right ( up to 30 days for some people). But this appears to be the dealer fix for 1.7.1 and I'd rather apply it and move on rather than wait for an update to kick off. I had to remove those panels anyway for a ham radio project...

This whole thread is documentation of how the truck owner can not only address the 1.7.1 snag, but every other software update Ford has available for these trucks.

The only Forscan change I have ever made was the running board activation one to the DSM. And even before that, I was not seeing any updates. That one change is something I know Platinum Peasant has done, and I see he has updated.
well at least you have ruled that out.

Agreed but, I digress. I can only help those that want help.

Yeah, but if I can save myself weeks of waiting with the USB in the truck for 1.7.1 to kick off by buying a $5 adapter and running a config in FDRS, why wouldn't I? I'm not taking it into the dealer, I'm DIYing the module update repair procedure in the TSB then trying 1.7.1 again to see if it expedites it.

I'm fairly new posting but have been lurking since the beginning. Am I missing a reason not to do the TSB myself to keep the updates moving along?

Actually, I'm curious of your outcome. But it's a rather finite goal compared to what most are aiming for.

I have not been following your posts so, let me ask this, do you have any updates showing in FDRS?

My goal is a truck that is completely up to date. I've done everything available to me in FDRS except that darn 1.7.1 APIM. I assume more will follow once that is done. I have a 302A XLT though so it's not like I'm gonna get Bluecruise at the end. I just want to be running the most current software and get myself to a state where future OTAs work. After this adventure I'm also considering adding adaptive cruise and LKA since that's the one feature I really wanted that my truck didn't have

Affirm, after going through them all I only have GSM (known issue even though I applied it) and APIM (which is 1.7.1 which didn't kick off as expected). Also ACM which failed but I don't have the fancy sound system so I'm not convinced it's gonna work anyway.

When you say available in FDRS, can you be more specific?

K, forget my last response. What was wrong doing the APIM update? Failure, error popped up?

Strange that you would have different cameras at speed functionality than others unless you had Forscan edited values before the updates?

The sidebar camera is the bed camera for me.
Full screen camera is either bed or hitch.
I did make IPMA changes in the past, but I restored to as built prior to making any FDRS updates.
