  1. ECU module programming guide using FDRS

    So my system finally updated! I received a “system updating message” where it says phone list while I was driving. Shortly after arriving at my house, a message popped up saying that the USB drive could now be removed and the details can be uploaded to a computer. Very exciting, I have a...
  2. ECU module programming guide using FDRS

    Does using fordpass or keyfob remote start have any effect on deploying the APIM update via USB? Going on 2 ish weeks here with my flash drive plugged in and still nada, truck does still recognize the USB drive as I can see the message and it listed as an audio source whenever I get in the...
  3. 2021 F-150 that has never been updated

    Awesome yes, the USB stick is listed as an audio source. It's been about 10-11 days since I left the USB in there so I will wait towards the end of the month the warranty replace the APIM if nothing has updated by then. Just praying I get in my truck one of these mornings and the update has...

    Now I'm in the same boat. USB c flash drive just sitting in the truck praying it kicks off soon.. Got a low battery warning the other day when attempting other updates even though it was a new OEM battery from Ford. Could possibly be defective and would be an easy swap out.
  5. ECU module programming guide using FDRS

    Haha only have doubts because the weird issue I’m having with usb ports, but hopefully it will update off the flash drive in the Usb C port. I’ll give it a solid month before doing an APIM replacement
  6. ECU module programming guide using FDRS

    If my USB update still doesn't kick off for a couple weeks would this be potential solution too? Pulling the trim off and plugging into the USB receiver here and doing a module update repair through FDRS?
  7. ECU module programming guide using FDRS

    Yes, I’ve reset it with the high beam / brake pedal procedure a couple times
  8. ECU module programming guide using FDRS

    That’s odd because I put a brand new Ford AGM battery in it last week and I’ve had it on the tender almost every night so I’m not sure how it would be depleted that much. Especially after being on a tender almost every night. Even if there was some sort of parasitic drain it shouldn’t drain that...
  9. ECU module programming guide using FDRS

    It’s because I’m stuck on the bad 1.7.1 OTA update from 2021/22. It should be smooth sailing once this updates my APIM but other members here have had to drive with the USB drive for up to 3 weeks before the truck updates off the flash drive
  10. ECU module programming guide using FDRS

    Ah okay, I didn’t realize that was the standard operating charge range. Only concerned me because I got a warning in the past regarding the APIM update saying the battery had to be above 50% and this fell slightly under that. Still waiting for the update to kick off the flash drive so I’ve just...
  11. ECU module programming guide using FDRS

    Been driving around with the flashdrive in my truck since Friday now, praying I hop in my truck one of these mornings and get that 'update successfully installed' message :cwl: Will give it about 3 more weeks of thinking before I warranty replace the APIM. Also, how fast should I expect my PB...
  12. ECU module programming guide using FDRS

    That's relieving to hear. Sooner the better as I now lost that cruise control. I put a new Ford battery in the truck yesterday and got a low battery warning and remote features were disabled after I drove the truck 25 minutes home. It was on a strong tender the whole time while we did updates...
  13. ECU module programming guide using FDRS

    Yes, we tried 3 different USB drives formatted the exact same, and nothing pops up while connected to the USB A port under the HVAC controls. Furthermore, we tried a standard USB cable to a phone and it did not provide any power to it. The area does have the ambient lighting around them too and...
  14. ECU module programming guide using FDRS

    Yes I always wear my seatbelt when driving. So I’m guessing IPMA being on a newer version than the APIM is throwing it out of whack and causing me to lose lane centering until the APIM updates off the USB drive.
  15. ECU module programming guide using FDRS

    I also lost my lane centering steer assist after the IPMA update, is this something that will be resolved when my APIM update hopefully installs itself? Not sure what other troubleshooting will need to do if the USB A port is indeed dead. The Sync system does seem to index and pick up the drive...
  16. ECU module programming guide using FDRS

    Interesting… I will try that. Everything was formatted correctly on the drive, although I did shorten the drive name to just ‘USB’ I will leave it in the usb c adapted port and hopefully it will update while it’s sitting
  17. ECU module programming guide using FDRS

    Thanks for checking that so quick. Regarding my issue earlier with the usb drive, it only seemed to recognize and ‘index’ the drive when it was connected through the usb c with an adapter. There was also no power through the USB A port when trying to charge a phone. The ports do have the ambient...
  18. ECU module programming guide using FDRS

    Couldn’t find the exact version but it was on revision 243 last night before we updated the IPMA. After the update, the revision number is now blank. My friend is a 14yr certified master tech and we can’t seem to get the APIM to update via USB. Just ruling out every possibility before we replace...
