Bc 1.4 Will not install

[Marsell8663]

Hi everyone,
I’m trying to install the latest software update for my 2023 F-150, but I keep getting an error message saying the update has been interrupted and requires attention. I’ve double-checked everything, but the issue persists.
Any advice on what I should do next? Should I try restarting the process or is there something else I might be missing?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Most likely the battery is low. Charge it overnight make sure the negitive lead is not directly attached to the battery post.

Battery SOC is probably too low. I had to get a 15a charger/maintainer and charge it up and left it overnight to update.

Two things that may also help:
1) Once charged Reset the BMS system (super easy) so it recognizes the charge.
2) put the parking brake on

I’ll give the charge a try, can you explain a little more what you mean by the negative not attached to battery post.

If you attach the battery chargers black lead directly to the battery post it bypasses the battery monitoring sensor (bms). Doing this the vehicle will take days to recognize that battery has been charged unless you reset the BMS.

Take a look at post #29 on page 2 and #33 on page 3 in the thread below for good spots to connect the charger leads to.

Interrupted by another process is 100% due to the battery.

Interrupted by another process is 100% due to the battery.

I put a charger on it this evening, charger showed full charge after about 1 hour on the charger. Hopefully that was the culprit.
