I recently encountered an issue with my FordPass not updating correctly. In an attempt to resolve the issue, I attempted to remove and reactivate my vehicle. However, it appears that MY2023 vehicles cannot be activated until Ford releases an update in February. As a result, I am now exploring alternative solutions, such as asking the dealer to re-provision the modem.

I am also curious to know if the re-provision process can be done using FORSCAN.

Has anyone else experienced similar issues or have any suggestions?

Others have. A workaround that seems to help the majority of people with this issue is pulling the negative lead on the low voltage battery waiting 20-30 seconds, and then reconnecting. It kicks the modem out of its locked up state...YMMV.

At least the error message has the correct acronym “PITA”. It definitely is that!

You were right. One 10mm wrench later, and everything is back to normal.
