ECU module programming guide using FDRS

[BluStreak]

notice any speed difference between this and a mongoose?

I have not used the mongoose plus so I can’t help there. It did seem to be fairly quick, the part that took the longest was downloading to the USB. I have fast WiFi in the shop but 2 of the updates were over 5GB. I used that cable because it was available at the nice price of free to use.

Must have missed something what is the CMR update fix?

CMR OTA 6.13.0 broke BC for a lot of people across the F150, Lightning and MME platforms. A new OTA recently started being sent out 24-PU0105-CMR-FX which replaces 6.13.0 and fixes the issue.

Can confirm that there are no CMR issues after this update. Seems to be even more forgiving than previous updates too.

I'm not sure if this is as a result of a DSP update that was applied over the last few months, but:

I was sitting in my truck this evening. Key off, opened the door and then closed it. Truck went into a deeper sleep after a few minutes and then I started to have popping noises coming from the audio system. They last a fraction of a second but continued to happen for at least 5 minutes. Interval was once every 15-20 seconds. I KOEO, force rebooted the IMPA, but it was still there after the truck went back to sleep. Concerned this is happening for extended periods of time after I park the truck for the night. Thoughts?

Going back in for round 2 of FDRS updates on my 2021 f150 as well as updating my company 2023 F150 with the 5.0

anything new to be aware of? Did I read somewhere about not updating the PCM on the 5.0

any special order for the updates again?

The PCM update in FDRS will be OK on your 5.0 it was the version sent with OTA that was throwing the wrench light. But that has been resolved as well with a simple forscan edit.

Thanks for the reply

all the bcm updates are good as well? A year ago when I was doing this the bcm update was burning out headlights.

No garentees on the BCM others have said they had a problem. But my Job 1 2021 Lariat 500a with Quad legs had no problem.

the BCM FDRS updates safe to do these days?

one truck has halogens the other has been upgraded to oem projector.

I don’t know why this error is occurring but I got the same one last time I updated the BCM. It was fine. Run a few diagnostics on the module and I’m pretty sure it will pass. Here’s what I did previously to double check that the module was ok. https://www.f150gen14.com/forum/threads/ecu-module-programming-guide-using-fdrs.8249/post-411952

As far as I know, the situation is the same. It may mess something up or it may not.

Joe...is this from your truck? Reason is, you say 3.5 EB on your info and this report shows 2.7 EB. Just asking.

what did everyone do to get past this? I had an old version of FDRS that was uninstalled a while back. this comes up when installing the latest from the site.
