ECU module programming guide using FDRS

[Bob_Mac]

OTA or FDRS?

I hope this recent turn in the thread doesn't scare folks off too much. Just when there was amazing momentum to addressing trucks that were far behind in updates, suddenly it feels like the updating wasn't worth the risk.
Maybe I SHOULD be more worried but I can't find anything malfunctioning on my truck and I've done all the "scary" updates. Lol

And I haven't even figured out how to go check and see if my cloud is "corrupted".
I guess I need to go back and re-read the posts that I wasn't paying close enough attention to.

FDRS with the Mongoose. I've updated since my last OTA failed 2.3.0 and no issues other than the corruption.

Does anyone know what the 'DATA LABEL="706-29-### covers? It's the only area that some data seems to change daily. Runs from -01 to 201...
Ex:
<DATA LABEL="706-29-01">
<CODE>0A2B</CODE>
<CODE>08E6</CODE>
<CODE>A600</CODE>

That's the IPMA

Any noticeable changes in Sync ? Did they fix the ACC SSR ? How is CarPlay screen look like ? I had a full list of bugs reported to them.

Ok, there are changes but, unfortunately the ACC SSR is still the same. No border around the Android Auto and phone details and weather are in the upper right corner of Google Maps.

@iceman77 just noticed something, ACC doesn't stick after a restart it's disabled. Also, the Send Feedback for Updates has now changed as seen below.

Thanks, should that data change every day? I still never get OTAs even since the new Apim replacement.

TRM update in FDRS. I performed the update and now my CMDTC is clear. Took about 5 minutes for the complete process.

No, there's a problem with data corruption. Are you using the NANO?

I use the Nano but haven't in couple weeks. But been downloading and comparing ab files every day. They are changing in that area I mentioned.

8” update is fine . It came out a while back

@Jesse-Infotainment
Is it still recommended to hold off on the IPC update for the 12" screen?
I have a Job1 Lariat and using the VCX Nano

Yes, please hold off for now.

Doesn't matter, the corruption was there when you used the NANO and each time you look at the AsBuilt data it will change.

 

[JScaro]

Yes, please hold off for now.

@Bob_Mac @Jesse-Infotainment
OK guys, please keep us posted when this update is good to roll with.
I see the TRM update is out to correct the DTC and seems like I have a few other updates to do.

Since I only get the 2-day license want to get the best bang for my buck.

So, A note about the IPC update. I have done it now and I have seen the OTA for thee IPC files.

Step one of the update is to install

Target Identifier Current Software # Previous Software # File Size Module: IPC INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER F120 ML3T-14C026-CRC ML3T-14C026-CDL 186.03 MB F188 ML3T-14C026-CPC ML3T-14C026-CCM 1.84 MB

These were installed then there is a second part of the update.

Target Identifier	Current Software #	Previous Software #	File Size
Module: IPC INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER
F120	MU5T-10F906-FDA	ML3T-14C026-CRC	186.03 MB
F188	MU5T-10F906-FCA	ML3T-14C026-CPC	1.84 MB

Notice the previous files and the new files.

It went from the updated files to the newer files with the new middle part number


I believe everyone should be at the MU5T-10F906-FDA and MU5T-10F906-FCA

There are two steps to the update so PLEASE pay close attention while doing it.

I believe it is safe now. I did mine this morning and it went well. I have a V8. The first step was a USB update. AFTER the selecting the USB was successful it proceeded to the next part and it was CANBUS only it did not give an option. This is where the 10F906 files will be loaded

IF you get a error where is will not configure do NOT Panic. Just let it roll .. you can retry if you want but if you dont it is OK> Just follow it out

You will get a possibly DTC u2100 for initial config not done. This is OK it comes from the config not completing . Do a PMI. Select the original module is NOT installed and follow prompts.

Make sure to pay CLOSE attention to the whole process. Again it is TWO STEPS. The initial step gets you to the CRC and CPC the final is FDA and FCA.

I was able to recover the cluster that was blown and I am side loading the FCA and FDA level now. So if anyone had a issue dont panic it is savable. I had one completely blank! Its back to being fine now

I accidentally selected the original module IS installed when I ran the PMI. Stupid in hindsight, but the DTC cleared nonetheless and the config completed.
