Good morning, I was hoping to find out if I have any module updates, and if my truck is planned to get any OTA updates.

VIN: 1FTFW1ED1NFA56673

OK, thank you very much. I have the Mongoose cable & Solar 20-Amp smart charger. I need to download FRDS and buy access to get them downloaded. This is 100% new to me, so I am a little nervous.

Thanks for the help

Don't be nervous. It looks a lot more intimidating than it is. The APIM update will take you a bit. Make sure you also have a USB flash drive 32GB or bigger freshly formatted to exFAT. Name the USB drive something short like "Sync" as long names have been known to cause issues. Any questions you may have during the process, post on the FDRS thread below. It is watched by many knowledgeable and helpful people.

You received 3.5.2 via OTA 4 days ago. Your truck being a 2022, you have all previous power up updates already installed from factory. All you're missing OTA is 3.5.3 and 3.5.4. If your truck has bluecruise, there may be a bluecruise maps update via OTA that you're missing, as well. No OTA's pending in your queue at this time.

Excellent advice, thank you. I did purchase the 128gb USB that Jesse posted as the one he uses. That said, when it comes time to plug the USB drive into the truck, do I use the USB end, or the USB-C end (it has both), or does it matter?

Ahh, thanks. I did see the notification about 3.5.2, I just wasn‘t sure if I am due more of them, since my truck was just purchase, and is behind the eight-ball, as far as progress when compared to the rest of you guys. my truck does not have Bluecruise.

I am not sure if the USB C side will work, so I'd go with the USB. Make sure you used the port under the screen and not the one inside the center console.

Haven't gotten any OTA updates that I know of since I bought the truck, just got battery replaced, hoping maybe bad battery was the cause. Can someone check 1FTEX1EPXMKD97871 to see if an update has been successful since new battery install? Had one pop up as pending, I think it was 1.4.0, but haven't seen any status updates about it since I told it to install.

@rugedraw, I would like a VIN check, please: 1FTFW1E84NKD22312

Thank you!
You were sent 3.5.2 back on 10/27, but it failed to install due to a server/cloud issue. Either poor data connection at the time the OTA was sent or a problem on Ford's servers.

Holy crap.....your truck is way behind on updates. 1.4.0 was sent to it 10/17 and again today in the morning, but it failed both times. The reason why is not very clear. I am attaching a pic of what I see for you. You are also on Sync version 20301 which is known to be a dead zone when it comes to getting updates, but in your case, you are getting updates sent to you, they just aren't installing.

More importantly, your truck is spitting out a buffet of DTC's everyday. Like, A LOT of codes. Many battery voltage codes and others. I don't recall ever seeing so many DTC's when I check someone's truck.

It seems to like you need dealer intervention. Your truck due to the trim level it is will not benefit from most of the OTA updates as they give you features that your truck doesn't have. However, some of these OTA's update your PCM which improves the drivability of your truck, so you still want to get them.

Thanks, @rugedraw. Guess I'll have the dealer install it when it's in for an oil change next week.
