I could be wrong but I think the car only does the sync and not the maps. Could be you are downloading Sync 3.4. I believe the map requires Sync 3.4 to be loaded before it will allow you to update the maps. But I could be wrong - the memory is not as sharp as it used to be hahaha

Yes, that’s what I did. Took a nice drive along the beach. Took a little over an hour. Has multiple restarts of the system so wait until you get the remove stick message that stays on. Have to do a restart at that point to get it to finalize.

There are many types of chips. There are IC’s ( Integrated Circuits), ASIC’s( application specific integrated circuits), passives, discrete, and a host of others. One fabricated, all these chips are assembled using state of the art assembly lines onto either PCB‘s or in some cases ceramic...

COVID plus Semiconductor shortage equals lack of inventory and higher prices due to demand outpacing supply. That is the primary reason prices are up generally at all price points (And used and new inventory). I was talking to a dealer a short while ago and they were selling their loaners...

Quick question, if you have the AT&T Wi-Fi activated in the car will it use that for the download? Or will you have to connect to an external?

I had the same thing. Took it in and the seal was defective. They replaced it and all is well.

When I was younger I had a 5.0 LX when they first came out. I had waited till I got a 1000 miles on it and wanted to open her up. Was at a red light in the first position on a road that had no access and was divided with a cement median - so I figured this is a good a place as any to let her...

Just curious - does anyone have any specific instances where info from this was used against them or resulted in warranty denied? Is it a lot, a little, maybe never happened? Maybe with other car brands or same brand alternatives (like F150 etc..)? Not arguing any of the points just wondering...

same with me

agreed - there will be times that you think you should pull the usb but don’t until it stops completely. For sure don’t remove if you still see the little usb light blinking. Took about and hour for everything to complete

Same happened to me. After the master reset I got the voice part of nav back and all worked well. I then loaded the second (the fixed one from Ford) USB stick that Ford sent out and it loaded perfectly and when complete everything worked as it should.

I did the reset and it did nothing - the master reset did the job.

Update: for grins I decided to do a master reset and low and behold all the voice commands came back. Then went for a ride and tried to update using the second Ford USB. Went just like it was supposed to and loaded fine and still have voice commands.

I did the same - Dealer said APIM was zonked and they had to order a new one. I showed them your (I think) picture of what work was done and they said they tried to do it but no luck.

That’s great! Mine goes in Wed and hope I get the same result.

Yup - my first one was the one from Ford. Did not work - will be interested to see if yours does.

I think you are correct - so the Dealer can deal with it

Interesting for me. I got a stick from Ford and it started all right but never moved from the updating screen and never restarted or confirmed it updated. I then did a download and it generated an error and did not load. But low an behold I checked the Ford site this morning and it says I am...

No it’s supposed to look like that. A professional photographer liked the look of the car and took them. He saw me driving and flagged me down and sent them to me a few days later.
