No numbers associated with this but it posted to my truck after arriving at Dunks this evening.

When I started the truck and did a quick check on the updates screen it was clear of the prior 6.8.0 message and said I had no new updates. That seemed odd, so I turned off the auto update feature, then turned it back on with a revised time frame, then this appears.

This afternoon I finally got 6.8, so maybe OTA is resuming. Got my LVB sensor replaced yesterday so I was wondering if that might have contributed as well.

This is the exact wording I got on an update on Dec 8. I call it the unknown update. I then got 6.5.0 a few hours later. Did you get 6.5.0 yet?

I'm not sure I can do that in my signature. I have had 19 updates in the last 12 months!

Understandable, I'm just listing the most recent four updates, funny how several of you have reported receiving the above in early December, yet others missed it for some reason.

Actually the first report of this was Nov 21. It was originally in a thread called "Smart Changes here and there" but got merged (I think mistakenly) into the 6.2 thread. See here:
https://www.f150lightningforum.com/...ota-6-2-0-small-adjustments.17006/post-350306

Edit: my recent update history:
10/19/20236.1.0
10/25/20236.2.0
10/26/20236.3.0 (Sync updated to 23237 / 980)
11/22/202323-PU1103-NAT-VCE (6.2 repush) (Sync updated to 23292 / 1049)
12/8/2023Unknown "Smart Changes"
12/8/20236.5.0
12/21/2023 (after ~10 days of failure)6.8.0

Received this update today as well. I was on 6.5 prior. 12v SOC 47%. I just had 23870 customer satisfaction completed today with some dealer updated modules. I don’t have a record of what those updates were however.

As a long-term IT guy, I expect Ford had to make some minor updates to one or more of the modules to facilitate the next Power-up version and it has to be done in advance so it doesn't break things. I've seen this one quite a few times in the past year.

Laying the foundation for the next house.
