    You should encourage people to pay for Forscan. It is a good deal and they deserve the dough. I bought the lifelong Extended License.

    Why I don’t use google maps ? It puts my house two blocks west in between two different houses. Even my sync 2 got that correct after several SD upgrade maps.

    Curious how you like it after having it a while? Any problems surface? I'm co sidering doing the same after watching your video. I have an f350 so should be similar process. Only issue so far has been finding as-built data. The site your link references is down.

    You say you showed us how you got the as built data, but you didn't aha do you use your vins as built and it works or you find an as built from a sync 3 truck and input its blocks?

    Luckily I have a 2016.5 so my sync 3 upgrade consisted of changing out the USB to a lightning or USB3 plug and updating the software...very easy

    Nice detailed vid. upgrading to sync 3 upgrade the voice commands right? Calling anyone on sync 2 is so bad I opt to fumble with my phone which isn’t very safe. All voice features improve I hope? Talk to text Apple car play and so on...

    Nice! question for you: Did the forscan programming that was done at the end of the video work? any issues since you upgraded?

    • @_willalexander.88
      @_willalexander.88  Před 4 lety +1

      Yes. Everything was solid. Wish I recorded before and after but basically before, I had no back up camera and some other minor stuff. After, everything was like it should be when I had sync 2.

      LETMELIVE Very cool! Your video inspired me to do the same thing. Got my apim and screen from the local junk yard and rest from eBay/amazon . The only issue i have (first world problems) is my ambient lighting does not stay on by default. But i wanted to thank you so much for posting this video - very informative and its the best mod yet on the truck (2015 F150 Platinum). Both apple car play and android auto work + my update to sync 3.0 seems to have registered on Ford owner website too.
      Thanks again!!

    Do you have to replace the gps /antenna for a system with navigation?

    • @_willalexander.88

      I believe the GPS antenna is different on sync 3. Good thing it's cheap.

    • @aseempatnaik4537
      @aseempatnaik4537 Před 4 lety

      Yes. However I did not " replace". The sync 2 apim does not have a gps going into it so I left the original in. I did put a new gps antenna in for the sync 3 apim
