even trying some of the tips that have been mentioned here, and requesting all updates to be applied during a recent warranty repair, I am still waiting.

24 Lariat, updating tonight

Installed for me last night. 24 Flash, purchased new almost exactly a year ago.

I have generally liked BC, if 1.4 really is that much better I will probably use it more.

I also received BC1.4 update last night on my 24 Flash. Unfortunately I live in BFE, Michigan and it doesnt work anywhere around me during my daily driving. Looking forward to trying it at some point.

Maybe it is just coincidence with the upgrade, but I'll share this here incase others have an issue.

I received BC 1.4 last Friday. The next day I attempted to use adaptive cruise control with lane centering and was having issues. It was having trouble engaging and staying engaged.

I never got a chance to try Blue Cruise until Tuesday this week and it would not engage at all (neither does lane centering at this point). I tried turning lane centering off, and then back on. It would first flash up that lane keeping was engaged followed by an error that “Lane Centering Assist not Available”.

I tried shutting the truck off and trying again, to no avail. Today I tried disconnecting the LVB for several minutes, also to no avail.

I have a service appointment (two weeks out ).

Cancel your appt and.......

The new IPMA software requires the driver to be wearing the seatbelt for lane centering and BC to work.

Update: Confirmed, rebel mode canceled. Appreciate it @rugedraw.

I have a question for those that are familiar with the moose and did all of this before the OTA…..

How is it possible that some of us are receiving this update OTA without any extensive battery drain or downtime?

I think it took 15 to 20 minutes for my truck to install 1.4

But people that used a mongoose spent hours and had their battery hooked up to a battery charger


Why is it so much easier on the trucks OTA?

Drove us crazy on the ICE F150 forum when it came out. Jesse and I rolled a few trucks back to the old software thinking Ford botched the update.

From my understanding of how this works: When the IPMA is updated with the Mongoose, it is updated via CAN which takes a long time. When it is done via OTA, it is updated via ethernet so it writes much faster. Plus on the EV's, the HVB charges the LVB while the vehicle is being updated to offset the draw caused by the OTA installing.

Interesting thank you for that explanation. That makes sort of sense. I think a lot of the lightning guys use battery chargers during the updates as well though.I
