It's a simple APIM swap.

What? You're not in? ?

 

[Big Dog Daddy]

Wow! It kicked off! That's great another hurdle overcome.

 

[Snakebitten]

Oh now they tell us.

Are you doing this sans FDRS?

Jesse doesn't let a little Ole problem on Ford's servers stop progress.
He read the log files from an FDRS session and identified the mess on the cloud side with this VIN.

Basically the file size of the downloaded files don't match the file size expected. (in the manifest?) So FDRS would abort the update. Which it probably should. But it's Ford that has the mismatched files in the queue.

If I won the lottery, I'd buy Jesse and his wife a Mach-E. Any color she wanted. (rumors are she likes them)

In this instance, yes.
Hopefully the car and the cloud will sync up soon and Ford's mess will be in the rear view?

Or you can grab a FDRS license, heck it's cheaper than lunch at McDonald's now, and with 1 scan it will instantly sync up to the cloud.

Success

Just curious if anyone has came across or used this yet? Not that I'm promoting 3rd party and/or "hacked" accounts, but $400 for 12 months of basic FDRS is awfully enticing...

Ain't that the sad truth. I went for the 1 month because I knew I had some work to do and didn't want to be rushed. I get enough of that at work.

These were mentioned a few times throughout the thread. They basically use their account and log you in after you allow them to remote into your computer. Iceman asked if they be discussed in depth elsewhere.
What's more concerning is the frequently bought together items...

Pretty much guaranteed to be a scam or hack. Several posts come up on it and some of those get deleted. Legit FDRS isn't very expensive and you don't have to worry about your laptop and home network when using it.
