Thank you! Saved me hours of time plus a mini heart attack. I don’t think the FHCM and HVAC updates are even worth the effort of hooking up the battery tenders! Was really hoping for the next baby steps towards the BC 1.4 or at least the APIM refresh by now.

It's been a hot minute since I've done FDRS updates but I've gotten all of the EA OTA's up through 6ch-aud. Looks like there's a decent list of pending updates: Are any of these problematic to install? Do any of them have a noticeable effect? Mulling whether or not to apply all of these...

Also got this update in a Lariat ER. Tried my hardest to listen to both Surround and Stereo mode and honestly don't hear a difference. And I am a "tested" discerning listener for my employer's expert audio panel, where I had to pass a 2 hour long listening test. Not going to claim I'm an...

IIRC if you choose one of the buttons to change the camera view, it causes the X button to show up again too. It also caught me off guard a few times when driving.

It’s probably worth a separate thread to decode OTA update naming instead of using this FDRS thread. But OTA update version numbers are literally just text. Every OTA is for a specific module or small set of related modules. They are not cumulative.

Personally: no I don’t think it’s “better”. It’s just different. It’s almost never the case that US and EU regulations are the same, I didn’t expect headlights to be any different. Like if you’ve been watching some of the recalls lately, GM had a glare recall that literally is fixed by a...

well they are activated in Canada which follows the UN-ECE version. Plus, just like Tesla, it turns out that these matrix capable LED projectors are all around superior in brightness and configuring of beam pattern. Ford may have decided for a combination of those reasons it made sense to just...

As a former automotive engineer: Completely agreed here. The NHTSA FMVSS 108 rules are corresponding to a brand new SAE (American) standard for glare-free headlights. The existing EU / UN-ECE legislation is completely different even though conceptually it sounds like the same thing. If Ford...

FWIW don't get super super excited. The Tesla matrix projector (Samsung) has almost the most "pixels" on the market, it's something between 250 and 300. The Ford one is only around half of that. Don't get me wrong, glare-free headlights are super cool and I'm glad Ford put this unused equipment...

Likely for FordPass plug-to-charge, not for the actual ability to charge.

Please send the VIN and name of dealership you’re working with (just kidding)

So I’m lucky and applied 6.13 without hitting this issue. But as of two weeks ago I do see another FDRS update to the CMR, so I suspect that is the fix. I wonder if any of you affected folks can try finding a FDRS friend to apply that update.

I've had about a month with the IPMA+PSCM update and I have to say, if this is BlueCruise 1.4 it's not really anything to write home about compared to the competition. I do see some modest improvements -- slightly less nonsense ping ponging in super wide lanes, follows slightly tighter curves...

TBH I’m surprised the sales department agreed in writing as this is kind of unheard of from the service side. I’ve got FDRS and have helped many users on Reddit who claimed their service center updated “everything” and it’s almost always just been CSPs and maybe CSPs plus an APIM update. Some...

I have a FDRS subscription and already received the 6.13 OTA

FDRS is showing a new CMR update this week on my Lightning…..

Any sign of this in FDRS yet? Seems like the IPMA PSCM update would be the one we did already and perhaps there’s another APIM update with some as built config programming changes to activate things in the UI?

That is illegal. Tesla already got slapped on the wrist for doing this once (an update broke auto emergency braking and they silently pushed a fix) You cannot silently correct a safety defect using a software update. It requires a recall which includes an explanation to the NHTSA for what...

I disagree. For frivolous things like the size of icons and text? Sure. But software defects absolutely can be a safety hazard and if Audi had to recall cars because door speaker stickers peel off and have pointy edges, software recalls are just as legitimate. It’s really secondary whether the...

I haven’t tried this but an idea I saw on Reddit is to use a 900+ watt PC PSU’s 12V rails. I’m an electrical engineer and I think that could potentially work. I’m not volunteering to try it!
