I don't blame you with the history of that one! You're welcome.

Don't worry kanuck, I'm going to be the lab rat on that BCM! ? as soon as the OTA shows on my truck I'll install it. And @RickBullotta will send me 50 bucks if my headlights still work! Come to think of it I might need that $50 for the FDRS subscription after I replace my headlight modules. ? ?

Thanks to all you who contribute to this forum. My truck had several DTCs this morning and many of them were addressed by checking the threads, so thank you. I still have some concerns on others and will be monitoring them.

I was curious if one of you have the time to run my VIN to check for updates. I was fairly early with OTA updates, but nothing since 6.4 updated on 12/08. My truck has recently been dropping into deep sleep mode which is a cause for concern since it’s driven almost daily. I have the battery connected to a trickle charger at night now. More than likely, I will be replacing the 12v this week because why not. Thanks again and I appreciate the information.

Bump - if one of you awesome contributors have a moment, I am still interested to see what kind of updates there may be for my truck. I am curious to know to help me decide whether to purchase a mongoose or officially sign-up for the community mongoose. Thanks!

Must of missed the post, but I got you. Last OTA you got was 6.4.0, so you are only a few updates behind. I don't think you NEED a Mongoose in your situation. If you have OCD and disposable income and want one, then for it. Not having to be dependent of dealers or the OTA process has been great for my ownership experience, but I wouldn't say you need to take that route.

Thanks @rugedraw! And thanks for keeping it real. The wife will appreciate your response. If there’s a long break in these OTAs, I may invest, until then, I’ll be patient. Thanks again!

Any updates for my truck? I thought I would see at least one by now but still no sign of my truck even trying to update.

If you approach the dealer with features available on other F150s that are missing due to down level SW then they can update and get paid. Not sure of your trim level but Pro Trailer Backup Assist using stickers was added via SW. Also bed camera at speed comes to mind. Alexa built in. Full screen Carplay. Reverse Trailer Guidance PIP. Tailgate double press for "safety." Bluecruise. Others?

Your truck was sent OTA 4.2.1.1 many times and the update failed because nobody started the truck was the OTA trigger was created in the server which is needed for the update to move on to the next step of the install process. I see the warranty started on your truck on 12/9/23, so I assume you just got it and the reason this happened was because it was sitting on the lot not being used. Next time it gets sent, it should go through.

Guys, can someone help me out? I remember there is a way (or was a way if Ford fixed it) that you can access your OTA dashboard by going to a certain website and entering you VIN in a specific place of the web address that allows you to see your OTA dashboard in html. Does anyone remember how to do this?

Is this what you're thinking of? I haven't checked recently but I know it stopped working at one point.

That's it! Thanks.

I know I had a period of time where I was down a truck, so I wanted to check to see if there is anything I have been doing wrong since potentially missing some updates. Please and thanks!

OTA 6.2.0 was sent to you on 11/30 but it failed due to a corrupted manifest. Nothing you did wrong or could have done differently. You just have to wait for the OTA to be resent to you with the correct files.

That's it! Thanks.

Is this working again? Curious what you're up to...
