New Navigation map update June 29th

[Bikeman315]

Well, not sure if this is what you mean but 12 files were created 12/10/2019, 1 file was created 12/19/2018, 1 file was created 03/03/2020. Then the license file was created 07/13/2020. Everything was the same last week except the license file creation date.

The creation date never changes. That doesn't mean the file hasn't been updated.

I do wonder why the new license file?

My guess is since it is created when the order is processed for download... Maybe!

Yup (as a retired engineer/web developer I still tend to overthink things--KISS, dummy). It's possible the maps version# is embedded in the license file, and if that wasn't updated it might explain why the update appeared to work but the maps version# wasn't updated on the 'about' page.

Ford said the "about" page was an issue with 3.3, not maps. The folks with 3.0 and 3.4 do not have the issue so I'm thinking maybe they are right about this one.

Do we have definitive info as to whether the update was actually done, but the about page doesn't correctly reflect it? I'd rather not go through the update process again, as I only have a short commute and hate to let the car run sitting in place. I don't travel far much these days, and don't use maps much, but when I do I'd like to be able to trust them.

Maybe. You need to go into Bezel Diagnostic and APIM files (there's a post in this thread somewhere). You will need to call Ford to find out what the file name is for the 1.19 maps. This is how us 1.17 users found out we actually had 1.18 and that there was a problem in the first place.

Agreed. My GT is at the dealer, hopefully they don’t have to pull the engine to reload my nav voice commands function.....

Let us know how it went. Mine goes in Wednesday for this plus other things.

Good news! The dealer reprogrammed the APIM and all is back to normal. Still at Sync 3.3, and the display shows 1.18. So I don’t know if I have 1.19 because of the apparent bug in 3.3 preventing the proper version display. Wasn’t able to talk to anyone when I picked it up. Good luck on Wednesday at your dealer.

Good the hear!.. look at your IVSU screen and compare it to what I posted earlier. That would tell you which nav package you have installed.

I’m not familiar with IVSU, I’ll need to figure that out.

Super easy.. Follow this video from the 2:33 mark...


Once in the diagnostic screen select APIM diagnostic. Then IVSU
