MY22 Adding SiriusXM

[Texas2022XLT]

The third digit in the first hextet of the 720-05-01 pertains to the root menu on the instrument cluster. Changing this digit will affect what shows up in the root menu. According to the spreadsheet

My donor as-built for this register is
1810 0100 0056

0 = RMIC disabled • RMIE disabled • RMIE disabled • RMIN disabled 1 = RMIC disabled • RMIE disabled • RMIE disabled • RMIN enabled

RMIN = Root Menu Infotainment Navigation, which means the navigation menu item will appear in the root menu.

And I would bet that if you changed this to a 9 the Climate option would show up in the root menu.

9 = RMIC enabled • RMIE disabled • RMIE disabled • RMIN enabled

RMIC = Root Menu Infotainment Climate

Just a guess.

My donor VIN has the same thing but I wonder what the ENSS is for SiriusXM?
Donor VIN: 720-05-01 1810

Just so you guys are aware, there were 7 individual lines of as-built changes with the latest GWM update aka Power-Up 4.2.1. At some point this weekend I’ll try to compare that with the changes from a donor VIN that enable the embedded navigation to function properly.

I was finally able to test and changing this value in the IPC will allow the "Show what's playing in SiriusXM on the instrument panel.

Change 720-05-01-0800 or whatever you have to 720-05-01-1800, the 1 enables it.

Will give it a go and report back!

Alright, so at least in **my** case the updates to the as-build for the 4.2.1 OTA for the gateway module don't affect anything that would need to be changed to activate the navigation features. YMMV, BE CAREFUL.

I don't think my power up updates are working so I don't think I got the 4.2.1 update. I have not received an update since installing the MY23 nav APIM. I have yet to get this working.

I too changed the IPC 720-05-01 first hextet to 1810 before I made the GWM changes and it did not change the display. After I made the GWM changes the Intrument Cluster started showing the SiriusXM data. It also shows the the Turn-by-Turn nav data as well.

It's probably a combination of changing both settings. I think the IPC changes enable the root menu (RMI) options and the GWM changes allow the metadata to flow between the modules. Just a guess.

Here's what my Intrument Cluster looks like with the Navigation enabled in the root menu

Here's the Instrument Panel when TBT Navigation is active

BTW, the compass is now working correctly. It's no longer stuck on N.

And Yes, it's 19 degrees here in Illinois. LOL

So I did some more monkeying around with the APIM settings and got the Speed Limit to show up on the right side of the Instrument Panel.

If you were just looking to add XM, could you install the new antenna and then install the splitter at the headliner? The curry plug from the antenna would go into the splitter. After the split the curry plugs into the curry on the body harness, blue plugs into blue which runs to the TCU. The maroon from the antenna connects to the maroon which runs to the TCU. An extension FAKRA would run from the ACM to the glovebox curry plug. This, in theory, would give you XM and retain the GPS for FordPass at the TCU without having to disassemble and tape the old antenna to the inside.

The unknown is whether the GPS signal after the split is the same for the TCU and APIM...

I wondered the same thing but I don't think on here has tried that yet.

Not sure I totally got what you are describing totally laid out. But if you are thinking of using the Xm antenna for gps?

I pointed this out earlier, I confirmed it with the geeks at our local electronics non profit store.
(shameless plug https://www.reuseum.com/)

Xm and gps operate at totally different band widths.

let’s go back to anolog tv it be like trying to use a uhf antenna to pick up vhf channel.

I'm suggesting using the new antenna (LC3Z-19A390-F) with curry and maroon connectors and using the below splitter to get GPS and pass that to the TCU. The below splitter takes the curry connector and passes curry on to the ACM for XM reception. The blue connector coming off that splitter provides GPS signal to the APIM for APIMs with Nav. I understand your uhf/vhf argument but Ford is currently splitting the signal and getting both XM and GPS for built-in Nav, so that splitter is doing more than just dividing/doubling the signal. I'm thinking of installing that splitter up at the headliner where the antenna is. The curry plug after the split will go to the curry that runs to the glovebox, with an extension that will plug into ACM and provide XM reception. The blue plug after the split will plug into the blue plug that the old non-nav/xm antenna plugged into and runs to the TCU for precise FordPass location. What this would achieve is adding SiriusXM and maintaining precise location in FordPass without disassembling the old antenna.

I have not Done It, I am still using an Xm antenna mounted as I described previously in this thread. But as I have read disassembling the non Xm antenna to obtain the gps antenna Is not big issue.
There really is no use for that antenna anymore after buying the Xm antenna.

When you use the xm antenna as per fords design, the front splitter has a box that contains circuitry. How it works I don’t know?
But what it does

Xm signal to ACM

And a nav signal to the Nav Apim via the splitter circuitry

Cellular signal to the TCU via Xm/ cell antenna

With out a Nav Apim not sure how the GPS signal would be processed.

If you try it please report back with the result.
