I did it on Saturday. This may be a super-janky way to go about it, but I looked on autotrader.com for a car with specs that fit what I was after in the Sync 3.4 software and used that VIN.
Should work. I didn't have any trouble using a "borrowed" VIN. Believe the VIN is used to determine which modules to package in the download: like nav or non-nav, heated steering wheel or not, that kind of thing.
And the wife's has all that. It's a premium with nav so that won't work.
Huh? I'm a little confused by that response. If you want to PM me maybe I can help you find a usable VIN
I think we are missing the modem setup stuff in the vehicle setting page on the screen, I only see camera. Also no way of setting up the wifi the car comes with, this is standard on 2020+.
Yes, my car was connected via the modem before I swapped the screen, so I don't think it's a defect issue, I remember seeing the wifi modem setup stuff on the 4inch screen before. I wonder if there is something in Forscan I can change or I may have just gotten a model that was pre-2020 without the wifi modem and the display does not have to software to find\display the wifi modem.
Yeah, I looked for the TCU (Telematics Control Unit) in my car and I couldn't find one. I'm not sad about it. I have FordPass for my truck and I don't use it all that much. Remote start from the key fob works just fine.
For the truck or the Mustang? If you have remote start that means that you are connecting to Ford Connect.
To clarify, I have an auto and can start the car from the key fob, not from the Ford Pass app.
unless the head unit runs out of disk space, it matters not.
