So...

I got a Mongoose cable and got a 2 day license for FDRS and decided to do some updates. I did the BCM and APIM updates no issues. Then I started the TCU (Telematics Control Unit) update. formatted a 32G USB drive to exfat, FDRS loaded the files, plugged it in and got the expected "Software Updating... Update is in progress. Do not remove the USB drive."

It's now been 36.5 hrs.. Is this normal to update the TCU? Ideas/Suggestions? I'm a bit stressed at this point.

Thanks in advance.

I have absolutely no experience with FDRS (yet) but 2 things mentioned in the link below may be helpful and sorry if these are already know. The post below mentions not having whitespace in the drive name and it needs to be extfat format. I hope it helps!
