Yep; called again and advised that initial advice did not work; got a case logged on and escalated to Sync map support team... Wohoo; feels like progress now :)

Something must have worked... I clicked on the link in the confirmation email just now, the one that allows you to download a second time. I downloaded the license file again, and this time I got a file with the catchy name of JR3T-14G424-CE.TAR.GZ. Note that "CD" has become "CE". I bunged it into the USB stick and plugged it into the car and the update started just like it's supposed to. I cancelled out because I didn't have an hour to wait, but I'll run it tomorrow.

So, if you have a confirming email for the 1.19 map update, download the license file again and if you get JR3T-14G424-CE.TAR.GZ, then you'll be able to complete the install. The map file didn't change - it's just that the license is the right one this time.

You are right! It did change to -CE instead of CD... Will try later again.

About 50 min later, done. All good. I left the car with ignition on and a Ctek charger attached; came back in the office to work, and about 50 min later went back to check it.

It was all off, so I wondered a bit what happened... but turning ignition on, Sync had that little arrow which said it has been updated, and maps are showing 1 19.

Sorry, can you please remind us again what version/build # of SYNC3 are you running.

well damn, i was under the impression that this particular maps wouldnt even go on a pre 3.3 system considering the instructions say you must be at least 3.3 or later, the zip file says "post 3.2" etc etc.. (again with the instructions LOL :crazy: )

so perhaps, these guys who are seeing the 1.19NA in their sync info are all on sync 3.0? i see what you were getting out now @Bikeman315

in anycase, i reached out to the support person who helped me originally, inquiring about why after the update my system still says 1.18, while others are reporting 1.19, and how could i verify that i did indeed have 1.19.

hopefully i get some info, and they dont tell me to open another ticket...

we will see

For what it's worth, on my file downloads, the name was "SyncPre32", so for systems prior to 3.2.

I expect your system is saying 1.18 because the 1.19 maps didn't install. Do the following three steps and try it again:

1. Open the Order Confirmation email from [email protected], click on the "if you need to download again" link and download just the license file again. No need to download the maps. Check that the new file is JR3T-14G424-CE.TAR.GZ with "CE" where the previous license file had "CD".

2. Open the USB stick that has the maps on it in your file explorer, open the SyncMyRide folder and delete the previous JR3T-14G424-CD.TAR.GZ file.

3. Copy the new JR3T-14G424-CE.TAR.GZ license file to the SyncMyRide folder.

You're ready to head back out to your car and try again.
