My FDRS 2 Day license just expired last night and I was able to update a bunch of vital updates over the last 48 hours. But there was no APIM software update thats showed up during my time with the license. Any feedback would be nice.

There have been SEVERAL PMI attempts on the APIM. Were any ever successful. Did the usb install successfully?
When i was asked if the apim was replaced i prompted yes and got the download on my usb, but when i put the usb into the slot in the truck it took a couple minutes and told me the update was already installed. So no the usb didnt install successfully.

Ok, so it should not prompt for a USB if the software is already installed. It shoudl see it and jsut config and be done.

There must be some issue with the APIM software version that is preventing it form releasing the gateway update.

Let me look and see if I can see anythign

Where in texas are you

What's the consensus on the "woofer install?" prompt during an ACM update? I selected NO and it aborted the update. I scoured this thread and only found a few posts discussing the "woofer install" prompt/option. Anyone have details on what this ACM update does and if I should go for a YES response instead?

Updating modules right now, so far so good

That Mongoose has traveled the country at this point. lol

I believe that is only for people who want to install the OEM kicker sub thing the Ford offered. I did it to mine. Be careful with the BCM update as your truck has the quad lights system. I am not sure if there is a way to tell which is the BCM update you are supposed to try to avoid. Maybe someone with more FDRS know-how can chime in.

Too late on the BCM update. Already done. I thought that was corrected a couple of months ago and Ford removed the damaging update from FDRS? I hope so :oops:

Unless something changed, one of the PU10xx updates fixed the BCM issue to anyone that applied it, but they still hadn't pulled it from FDRS.
