ECG2-25.2.8.5 UPDATE

[ruhrooh]

What tab/tabs is the software update information under?e It looks like this is on the main vehicle page. When I look under the Software Update tab it gives me the scheduling options. However I cannot find any information on recent/past or pending updates.

When you go into the software update schedule on your app, in the bottom it will show the release notes.

I have looked in the app. In the software updates section it only allows me to schedule updates. It provides no list of updates whatsoever. I can find messages about software updates, but in the app the only ones I can find are from 2023. Online I can find a list of the updates, last one was several months ago. It would be nice if there was a user accessible list of software updates and when they were installed, plus a list of updates waiting for installation.

I have had several mornings recently where the truck has gone in to low power mode which from what I have read in the forum means the 12V battery might be failing, and that a failing 12V battery can block software updates. So many issues!

Also, why does it seem that there are so many different user experiences with the same app? People seem to have access to different tabs and functionality. It is intuitive to me that having all vehicles/apps updated (except EAP) to the same level of software/firmware and functionality would be easier to manage for Ford. But I am not an IT guy, so perhaps I don't know the whole picture.

Keep in mind that some of the population are making configuration changes that enable certain views, FoMoCo doesn't sanction these types changes.

Ha hA>.

Well thank you for checking.. If you get the APIm update can you check again for me? I really would appreciate it..

Or if you notice it gone in the next few days.. let me know.

Just got this update:

And after the update, mine is still making the same noises (that annoying whooshing sound) on shut down.

Ok, thanks for letting me know and following up. 25s have a newer ACM, IPC and DSP than 24s.. maybe thats why..

Thanks for checking

I just got this and the Sync update in the last few days. After this update though, has anyone noticed that their drive mode will not stay in sport mode even after hitting OK on the popup screen?

Generally I will turn the truck on, buckle in, and hit OK on the dash prompt to stay in sport mode. Prior to this update, it would work every time. Post update, however, on an intermittent basis, the drive mode will revert to normal (after going into sport mode for a moment) even after I hit OK when prompted. I will have to go into the settings in the Sync screen to put back into sport mode.

Haven't yet tried a 12V pull or anything since I'm due in the dealer to get my door keypad replaced.

It is indeed a new bug that was introduced. There is a thread around somewhere on this topic.

I left a voice feedback from the truck’s feedback app. I recommend others do as well so hopefully it gets addressed ASAP.

You're a gentleman and a scholar. I thought I was going nuts from lack of coffee.

Just got another OTA update (3rd one in 6 days now):

Yes sir, that is the last fo the trio. THe TCU.

Back in the day it was a glorious thing to get the main three updated. They typically update Gateway, APIM and TCU together.
