Correct. There is nothing you can to do (unless you know someone or made a Facebook BFF that works for the Sync team at Ford like that d-bag I had to block on here some time ago) to force the server to queue up an update for a vehicle. FDRS is the only way to install available updates on the spot.
No, but that won't prevent any other update from coming in. That message will stay there until another update comes in and replaces that message with the info that pertains to the next one. That is totally normal.
Yes, the changes I posted are ONLY for people who got the BC 1.4 OTA. If you update with FDRS, you need to make changes to the IPMA, too. I won't post the IPMA changes publicly for several reasons, but message me and I'll get them to you.
If you updated the IPMA with FDRS, you will have to enable lane change etc with FORScan. FDRS updates the firmware, but it does not add the config to enable the new features. If so, anyone that got the CSP for the parking sensors would have functional BC 1.4.
When you get the update via OTA...
That update failed back in October. Nothing you can do about it now. However, the BC 1.4 update is sitting in your queue for 4 days now, but it is not downloading the files for some reason. If you have FORScan, try rebooting the GWM and TCU. If you do not, unplug the negative cable off your 12v...
Nah, Ford needs to release a new IPC updates for the 21-23 trucks to get the pretty animations the Mach E has.
I don't think anyone at Ford pays attention to that. My truck still shows 21G01 pending and I did it myself a little over 3 years ago at this point.
Anyone that got this OTA can...
It does not. That's why FDRS asks you to make sure you have a proper power supply connected before you update any module.
Thanks for the clarification. I knew they didn't always do this, but I did not know it was module specific.
It cannot be done with FORScan. They would need to add the EPROM images to the software itself. You cannot enable what isn't there. I have looked into this already with the gurus. Same thing with the charge percentage for the HVB not showing on the dash. It cannot be enabled with...
The lane change animations can be added to our IPC's via an update. What @astrand1 is referring to: I am not sure if it can or cannot be added.....I would assume it can. Not sure if Ford has plans to do so or not.
Really? An FSE didn't know ho to this and had to involve TAC? :rolleyes:
There is a procedure in FDRS to correct this issue. I don't have a good answer as to why they need to involve an engineer for something the engineers already provided an easy fix for. What I can tell you as someone who has...
They do, but they don't have the toggles to turn it off if you don't want to use it. Same thing with the Mach E 1.3 OTA. Lane change etc works, but you don't have buttons without FORScan.
You're interpreting it correctly, but PTS is known to not show 100% accurate info. ABJ is old. I believe...
