SYNC-26.2.8.3 Software Update 12 - Center Touchscreen [EAP]

[branden]

It's interesting that he goes on Twitter to yap about a feature that hasn't yet rolled out, which means he's in EA, which means he's talking about Fight Club when you're not supposed to.

I saw others post before me.

It was a tongue in cheek comment.

Some of us with 2022s have never had preconditioning to a fast charger. EVER. And there is no reason to think that these updates will fix that issue.

My 2022 has it via Connected Nav... Does your not?

The general consensus is that 22's don't at least as far as warming the batteries goes. Don't recall any mention on the cooling side. I've tried with my 23 with Ford Nav and AA and haven't seen the thermal mode change to heat or any coolant heater power go to the batteries granted the lowest I've seen the battery temp was low 20's. Believe @RickLightning has a Mach-E also which he confirmed works fine.

Great news. Glad to see the updates continuing to roll in.

Was the phone list icon just a pre-25 update? My '25 Flash has had that icon for a while now. I believe it came with the previous APIM update.

Nice to see the 12" screen gang getting some love too.

Jace is an ego and post all of his opportunities to be around the Ford peeps and never regarded the NDA. And yes, I believed this to be beta too (NDA), but seems to have blown up all over the sites today.

"In this recent post on X, Craft-Miller posted some photos of the latest software update Lightning owners are receiving, which were originally shared by Branden Flasch."

Confirmed EAP stage, those testing should share experiences with the testing team.

Everyone else can speculate to your heart's content.

I'll be at the Boston Medical Center most of the day........ supporting the Mrs. Health care journey.

You get physical climate control buttons, quit complaining!

Precondition from connected nav will cool the battery on 22s. I showed this years ago. Rick needs to specify that it's the heat which never worked. It makes a difference for those of us in the South.

I am a Sadist. I can now torture my passengers by singing Karaoke!!! Yay!

BUT... where's the beef? These "BIG" updates don't fix things like No Blue Cruise when towing, "Full View Not Available" in rear camera view, and other poor vehicle menu choices, some of which don't work. i.e. it is still a shitty software design and testing team.

My 2023 is coming up on 30,000 miles and the cargo camera only works sometimes (not when I need it), the turn signals don't turn off after a turn and the tail gate keeps telling me it is open when it is closed, then sticks when I go to open it...

Well the full view can be disabled with forscan so that’s easy. If your cargo camera is working only sometimes it probably needs replaced. Mine was not working much of the time. I kind of was able to narrow it down to heat. Even if it was not hot outside that camera in the sun would get hot and then it would stop working. Had dealer replace under warranty and no issues since.

Ford needs to step up and update the European trucks as well. There are plenty of new features we actually need.

Precondition from apple maps, ppo with the truck off, 180 kW charging, Blue Cruise and probably a lot more we even don’t know we are missing.

I don't mean to detract from the intent of this post, but since we're talking about icons on the top of the screen, is there anyway to get rid of that damn Alexa icon? I have looked at all of the settings and can't find anything that turns it off.

Did you try asking her nicely?
