Yes, this IPMA software is newer than the one that allowed you to enable the new features with FORScan, so the OTA will still come in. The same FORScan changes needed to enable the buttons on the touchscreen apply here. Anyone that got the OTA can enable the buttons with FORScan.....no need to...
This is caused as a side-effect from a recent GWM update. If when you check for updates, you get the spinning circle thing and it gets stuck there and does not go anywhere, then the correct fix is to pull the negative cable from the 12v for 20 minutes or so. Once you go check for updates again...
IPMA = Image Processing Module A
OTA = over-the-air (refers to updates that are sent to the truck)
FDRS = Ford Diagnostic and Repair System (software used by Ford techs to diagnose issues and perform manual module updates)
It's not. We thought it might be at first when it first dropped in September for 2021 ICE trucks but the gurus already dissected it and tried it. It is not BC 1.5.
FDRS is the software techs use to diagnose vehicles and you can also manually install updates with it. With FDRS, you do not need to wait for OTA's, but the updates you get with the OTA process or FDRS are one and the same.
I know you're new here, so I'll do my best to explain. "Pending update" is a relative term. The answer to your question is no....you will not get notified if a module has a pending update for your truck.
However, you will (or should) get notified if an actual update is being sent to your...
Just tried it and I don't see options for those things in my Fordpass. I guess I've been missing out this whole time and didn't even know it. Unless it is only for the EVs? Wish I could be of more help with this.
Tbh, I never knew there was a HSW icon was in Fordpass. My truck brought the option from factory, but never noticed. Matter of fact, I went into my Fordpass now and I didn't see it. Looked through the FORSCan spreadsheet through the SECM and HVAC module, but didn't see anything for the HSW that...
Mach E's got a new IPMA update released to them, too. I wonder if it is the same BBC version that was released to only 2021 F150's in September? Lmk what version you get when it installs.
