ECU module programming guide using FDRS

I think you are where I am -- 21281 rev 244..

There is 22028 rev 358 and then a minor one at 22034 people have posted.

That minor one was still almost a gigabyte and was the one that added at-speed-cameras.

Thanks. I’ll have to look into this. The discount is substantial. Legitimate?

Substantial is an understatement. FYI, mhhauto has been around a long time so...

did you get BC from updates?

Nope. Unfortunately, mine's an XLT 302a without the extra cameras.

Just a note all trucks get the updates blue cruise or not.

While I had my 2 day license last week, I repeatedly checked for any "new" updates that might appear after applying my current set of updates. Nothing changed prior to my license expiring. I thought Ford was pushing updates to FDRS and the system would simply determine update eligibility. I work in IoT and that's how we build our updaters. So if the system is responsible deciding/pushing updates why are only some trucks getting these newest updates while others are not?

very good question but I am guessing no answer.

What's the current APIM update? Finally got Gateway and all ccm modules to pass and now I only show an IPC update. But I am just checking on the computer its not hooked up to my truck. SYNC saying 212B rev 244

SYNC4: 22034 Rev: 364

SYNC4: 22034 Rev: 364

Thank you maybe it will popup one day

I'm only guessing, but there are pre-requisites that must be met that are not instantaneous. It could very well require a truck to make contact with the mothership on occasion to meet all criteria?

So a little information and update that might be useful to some people. I was completely perplexed as to why I could update my Mach E with no issues, but have been constantly fighting my truck. At the suggestion of Jesse I released my license and swapped to another computer, and it allowed me to finish all of my updates. So just because the laptop and mongoose worked on one car, it wasn't working on another. The working theory is that something in the vehicle profile in FDRS gets corrupted. The solutions appear to release your license and completely wipe FDRS and reinstall or swap to another computer. This is the same resolution as Platinum had with his persistent issues.

I'm up to date with what FDRS will give me, but I know I still have a TCU and APIM to go, so it's just a waiting game at this point.

I used the mongoose to do my updates. I also know that my truck has phoned home a few times since applying the updates by looking at my router stats specifically for my F150. I'm willing to bet that I still have the same 4 stuck updates "available" to me. Will someone please run

I'll be VERY surprised if I've got a GWM and/or APIM waiting for me now.

Only shows GSM. That is like mine. Looks like ford updated the other "stuck" modules.

 

[Snakebitten]

Verified. Lol
I only show the GSM for your VIN

That's just another example that things are constantly going on at the mothership. Because there's nothing any of us has done to finally clear the ghost updates that have recently been cleared.

I do wonder about the delay (in a few days it appears) for populating newer updates after an FDRS session has accomplished all currently available updates.

No idea.. Mine is an STX xl and I got all of them.

Is there any way to tell if an update didn't actually take even though it looks like it took? For example, when I ran my TCU update, I didn't get prompted to use a USB. It ran very quickly, said it was updating the module and then the database, and then it was done.

I don't have any DTCs, but maybe one of my modules is stuck in a limbo state...
