I got 3.1 the day it was released and 3.2 was the same and the recall and then I go on vacation, come back after 13 days and hope the truck had updated and nothing.. Going to drive myself crazy resetting everything and hooking up to wifi at my house that isn't a mesh network.. The things we do.I'm still stuck on 3.1. nothing I do will get my truck to update. This is frustrating.
I think you're mistaken about that. The documentation says trucks don't update when they are DC charging.Trucks don't update while they're charging.
This is correct and while we see Ford struggling once again to just get these updates pushed period; a year or so back they touted very highly that they could update while driving. That narrative seems to have disappeared.I think you're mistaken about that. The documentation says trucks don't update when they are DC charging.
Same hereGoing on 3 weeks and still can't get a update from 3.1. everything is set the way it should be and still nothing.
So there is more to the story we need to know. Was it on 3.1? or did it already have 3.2 and 3.3? Did you have the download icon? Did it just download, or. was it downloaded and waiting and automatic updates are off and just happens no one else had applied it?I just updated the Dealers Demo Lariat tonight to 3.4 while charging on the mobile charger. I tried yesterday 4 times with no luck. Took a trip today in it & it updated with no problem tonight upon my return.
Thanks for that info. Sounds like this truck likely had the first updates without issue then and just needed some connectivity. Not likely a break through after being hung up like it seems many of us likely are.This weekend was my first chance to spend any time with the Lightning. My dealer let me pick it up Saturday morning & I’ll return it Tuesday. When I picked it up he said it needed updated & asked me if I’d do it.
I don’t know which version it was on but the message when I checked said it needed the 3.4 update. I assume it was not downloaded because the dealer said I’d need to pair it with my WiFi.
I tried Saturday evening 4 different times with no luck. The screen said it was preparing the update & then nothing. I never was there to see if it gave any messages when it failed.
Today I put a couple hundred miles on it. I must say I’m really impressed with the truck. Blue Cruise worked great.
When I got home I plugged it into the mobile charger I watched as it gave the message as before that it was preparing the update. It then started the update with no hitches. I didn’t do anything different than before except it was plugged in & driven during the day.
I signed up and do not have the update. I have info though that there is a problem getting 3.2 triggered, the download is on the truck.Just curious… those who do not have the update yet, did you sign up for the Early Access Program?
