Something similar happened recently on the Mach E forum: https://www.macheforum.com/site/threads/software-update-page-missing-in-sync.51423/ I was not able to help him get it resolved, but I did find a setting in the APIM that has something to do with this. In his case, it was already enabled...

I am not sure if the use of FDRS is allowed in your country.

@Jesse-Infotainment Curious if you know a way to force a master reset?

If you update with FDRS, it is still possible that you can an OTA for a module you already updated. In that case, the OTA will fail because the software is already installed.

Glad you brought that up. I think it may be help to point the nose of the truck towards Dearborn, MI. Updating with FDRS has zero negative effect on being able to get future OTA's.

We used to be able to help people do this easily, but thanks to Ford's awesome new cybersecurity system, all you can do is pray to the OTA gods and hope they shine their light upon thee. Or beg the dealer to do it and hope they do.

Ah crap......I forgot what forum I was on. :ROFLMAO:

Attached are the instructions from the workshop manual to fist remove the radiator grill and then the headlamp. I don't think swapping out the headlamp alone requires programming; only the modules, but not 100% sure.

I don't have the answer to your question, but this one is registered to the US Department of War. Break out your tin foil hats!!!!!

Living in urban Miami, I rarely get to see glare-free in action, so if you do live and drive in an urban area with lots of street lighting, the same will apply to you. Does glare free work on 2023 Lightnings? I know on the ICE trucks, it only works on 2021-2022 model years after a certain IPMA...

Hard to say without being able to plug into the truck and run pin-point tests. Some things are obvious and can be diagnosed remotely, but I don't feel comfortable saying for sure it the headlight based on those codes. Maybe @Jesse-Infotainment can chime in and give his opinion.

@KingConan Got your message, but responding here so the info is out there. Your truck is reporting these codes: First code is citing an open circuit in the lighting driver control module and the other code cites a component internal failure in the HCM for the left headlamp. Both of these are...

If your Fordpass is connected, message me the VIN.

Only 2025 Mach E's have BC 1.5. It is unknown if Ford will be releasing it to other models.

Enabling it yourself with FORScan will not affect the OTA process going forward.
