What’d you change?I think I have it sorted out and got the Navigation working correctly, thanks to a member on the forum it was easy fix and something I messed up in the inbuilt data on the APIM.
I am still getting 4 DTC codes, two in the APIM and two in the FMIC. Not throwing a check engine light at this time, but they do show up in ForScan.

You bought my screen/APIM, so I'll throw in the terminals and wire when I ship it tomorrow. Look at the link in the OP for a cheaper JST alternative to the WPT1239.4. 50 or so Tyco (aka TE) 1924955-3 terminals
5. Ford WPT-1239
6. some 22 gauge wire in different colors
Not hard, but if you aren't comfortable, you can cut the MS-CAN wires at the GPSM, strip them, and twist your added wire into each bundle, and secure them with small wire nuts.1. It looks like there is some wire soldering involved with this...is there any other way to attach the wires without soldering them (never done it before and it sounds a little complex)?
Same thing I did. You only need to add four 22 ga wires if you use the procedure for the video wires mentioned above.I am upgrading from a base to Sync 3...no HD radio, No Satellite ratio, No navigation.
I got lucky and found it on e-bay. If my plan works out, I may not need the parts that are the bezel deletes for the seat heaters (planning on seeing if I can keep original base climate controls and from the looks of it, this might just work)...fingers crossed.What's the part number on bezel no seat heat and were did u find it I'm doing this swap also
If you are shipping to Sacramento, then yes I did. Feel very happy to be working with another forum member . Out of curiosity, why are you selling it?You bought my screen/APIM, so I'll throw in the terminals and wire when I ship it tomorrow.

There is enough slack in the old screen connector to cut the video wires, add terminals, and insert into the APIM connector, so no soldering needed there.

You can't. The circuit board is all one piece.I got lucky and found it on e-bay.

I plan on cutting the parts that have to deal with the base keypad and through the 9 selector buttons. Looking at the circuit board, I believe these connections can be dremeled off without affecting the functionality of the rest of the board.You can't. The circuit board is all one piece.
Why? It's already been attempted. It doesn't work.I plan on cutting the parts that have to deal with the base keypad and through the 9 selector buttons. Looking at the circuit board, I believe these connections can be dremeled off without affecting the functionality of the rest of the board.
Who attempted it? Just curious...link to a thread?Why? It's already been attempted. It doesn't work.
