Got my truck back yesterday and the Bluetooth connectivity seems better. I feel like it connects MUCH quicker and there was zero dropped Android Auto connection events during a couple of drives yesterday... So far so good.

Just got my truck scheduled to go in on 3/18. I recently did a bunch of updates in FDRS myself, maybe 3 weeks ago, but there is still a BCM update that I couldnt do. Hoping that will then show a few more updates and fix these wireless carplay issues. Very annoying to have it disconnect in the middle of a phone call...

I don't think I got BC 1.4... It doesn't have the options for lane change with a turn signal.

Mine goes in on the 11th for updating. Infotainment system reboots at least twice a week. Not that big of a deal except when I need to use the backup camera during the reboot.

Your truck is already on the latest Sync software. The BCM update will not help the cause. Taking it to the dealer for this will be a waste of time.

The dealer cannot enable lane change assist or the other BC 1.2-1.4 features. That can only be done with FORScan if the relevant modules are up to date. Only the OTA version of the update will actually turn on the new features.

So my truck is in the shop now to do this TSB. Since I already have BC 1.2, if they update all the modules that have updates, should BC 1.4 just work?

If your truck already has lane changed etc enabled, then the new IPMA update would update you to the official release of 1.4. It is possible that the update wipes the forscan changes you made for lane change etc and you will have to turn them back on.

Thanks Rugedraw, while I did not have to do a forscan change to enable lane change( it was already included), I did do forscan changes enabling Bambi mode, brighter DRLs, I assume I will have to redo those, correct? And is there a way to tell if I now have Bluecruise 1.4 (they said everything is updated)

Just noticed your headlights and that you have a 2024, so 1.2 is correct and most current. Ford has released the IPMA update for 2024 trucks for 1.4 yet.

So my updating would NOT include BC 1.4?

Unless a new IPMA update was released for 2024+ trucks that I don't know about, any modules they update would not upgrade you to 1.4.
