    I updated mine on a '15 Edge without real reason to do so and it cause my heated seats to stop functioning. I performed a master reset back to stock firmware and the heated seats worked again. The wisdom of "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" was reaffirmed to me that day.

    Sir, you just saved me 1000 dollars from the dealership. I followed your CZcams message and my radio came back on. My wife was driving around with no sounds for 2 months. Just wanted to say Thank you very much and may God bless you.. 🇺🇸🇺🇸👍

      $1000??? That dealer was ripping you off! That was a $125-150 job back in 2014(which was STILL a ripoff).

      They were probably quoting him for replacing the audio control module no sound is a common issue needing the ACM to be replaced put that's still ripping people off you can buy a matching replacement or send your broken one in to be repaired $150-/+

    Bro!! I bought this 2013 last year and the sync has been terrible! Nothing but problems from skipping songs to random shutting off or radio not tuning off. The biggest was the Bluetooth or USB barely worked, only when it wanted! I just did the Ford upgrade and if people can’t find the link they can google Sync update and put VIN in! Let me tell you the Bluetooth is instant. Everything is faster and works as it should! Thanks so much for this I can’t believe I suffered for a year! Thanks again awesome thorough vid!

    Bought a 2013 Edge. Looked into things found it had never had SYNC updated once. Downloaded software from Ford Site. First time Failed. Went to Ford Dealer he acted like a ass-hole because I did not buy from him. So I walked out and re-downloaded and uploaded it to the USB Stick again. Went here to Good ole CZcams for advice. Came across your Video. 22 minutes I completed the download and did drive during process. Thank you for ford it totally out of line for cost these days.

  • @chrissilva8455

    Thanks for the video. I just got an update for my 14 Fusion. One would think the second largest car company in the world and the largest manufacturer of software could give as complete a set of instructions as you have. At first, I just followed the instructions on the support web page. It completely messed up my system. Buttons were not responding at all and or picking wrong functions. After performing the re-install using your complete instructions, all seems well. The most important instructions are "using a clean, properly formatted jump drive" and "wait for the second installation complete prompt". For anyone doing this for the first time, I cannot stress the importance of sitting in the vehicle and watching everything that goes on and pay attention for the last 2 prompts for the software completion. They only stay on for a little while, if you are not there to respond, they will disappear and the system goes to the home screen. You will think everything okey dokey, but you will find it did not update properly.

    Great informative video. Been watching all your videos on Ford. Just have a question on the cigarette lighter port. I've been using a phone charger connected to the cig lighter port and I noticed when I turned off the car, the charger is still working. Is there a way to turn off the cig port when I turn off the car thru the Ford Sync? Thank you

    All what you said is nice and I do hope it helps allot of people, BUT with my 2014 Escape no reset or battery disconnecting
    helped me something no one thought about including myself with
    the problem as no audio at all. Yes FORD suggested the latest update $$$ or as I was advised elsewhere it could be that
    thingie behind the dash at $600... way to much and of course I missed the last date for it to be under the extended warrantee.
    All this said my problem actually started a year ago when the vehicle would show shutting down to save power (when it was turned
    off) the radio would shut down and the delayed headlights would go off. Didn't think too much about it. Then comes this virus and
    were all stuck at home and the vehicle sits for 2 weeks or more. Go to start and nothing, I charge the battery, in fact I had to charge
    it 3 different times (the charge is not holding) I went to FORD had the battery replaced . A week later driving down
    the road I want to phone a friend and click and voila everything is working again all audio is back. So if your battery has been in
    the vehicle for say more than 5 years look in this direction it just might be tired and need a change. I am back being a happy camper.

    I have a 2011 F150 and the radio does not produce any sound. When I turn it on, the display picks up the radio stations and everything else from Bluetooth to CD's but when ever I try to turn up the volume all that is displayed is "Max Volume", and the volume bars do not even show up. It does this every time and I have replaced the radio and amplifier with stock ford replacement parts but I still have the same problem. Can you please give me some input on what I should do next.
    Thank You.

    Do you think this will fix my ac on 2012 explorer I already had a few mechanics look at my SUV and they say everything works fine that has to with the ac but something is not sending a signal for the ac to blow cold air or it's not sending the signal for the compressor to turn on but the compressor is good.

    I installed this update today on my 2013 Explorer, and it seemed to go fine, but I never got any kind of update success message. After it rebooted the second (or so) time, it all came back up and the radio came on, and that was it - no message positive or negative. The software version shows correct in the help menu. All seems to be working, and I don't think the 'Where am I?' selection was there under Information before the update. What do you think?

    I have a 2010 Ford Taurus Limited. On the right side of the steering wheel is row of switches. The volume, forward/reverse of radio stations and media buttons work but the last button for the phone does not work. The Ford dealership wanted to charge $700 to fix it. Is the row of switches bad causing the phone not to work or is it something different?

  • @hbic3
    @hbic3 Před 2 lety +1

    Yeah, it doesn't have to be a "quality" drive. Mine was a cheap one, 8gbs. Worked fine. Just did it yesterday on a used 2014 that was still in 3.08(not 3.8, as is commonly stated. That would be going backwards to update to 3.10). I was hoping this update would fix that I do not have 911 Assist. It did not. Still don't have it. I was hoping that it would fix that the compass says I'm facing North when I'm at home, and only at home. I'm not. I'm facing due south. It did not fix that. It works fine anywhere else but home.
    The system seems to respond faster now than it was. BUT, now, if the car is in gear, I cannot change anything on screen. I have to use the manual controls to change audio or climate controls. That's annoying, because it could be the passenger making changes, not the driver, so the driver would not be distracted, but at least there's a work around. Maybe that's a new menu item I can turn off that I haven't seen yet. Also, after the update, the system no longer sees the customer wallpaper background I used to have installed on the jump drive. I haven't changed anything about it. It sees the USB, but does not see the file.
    As I'm watching, I'm also realizing I did not do a master reset. You're the first video/article that said to do so, including Ford itself.
    I have a question, tho. Deep in the info in MFT, it states "Ambient Lighting --- Available." Does that mean I have ambient lighting ready to go, but it's not been enabled? Is that something that could be enabled w/ FORScan or FOCCCUS?

    Since we bought our Scape 2013 we have many problems with the sync and the screen, the radio commands didnt work and we had to stop the engine and estar again. Never fixed by Ford neither the put notes in the computer . The warranty expired now the screen went black, some times work some not. Ford change the module , the manager didnt charge, but still not working . We call yesterday and they say that we will have to change the screen and cost $1300. I read in many forum and is not the screen the problem, Is computer reboot and sync system. Any sugestions?

  • @curtpopejoy9884
    @curtpopejoy9884 Před 9 lety +1

    We bought our 2013 Escape about 10 months ago, and just did the big update a month ago. We were having pretty much every problem you listed. Now the radio staying on after we turn the vehicle off, and the touch screen not wanting to respond at times, especially the music controls are still happening. We have to keep ejecting and inserting a CD to get control back. Our salesman won us over on what Sync could do, but overall it's been a big disappointment due to all the bugs.

  • @aldevlin5682
    @aldevlin5682 Před 5 lety +1

    Hello,
    Last night, backing out of a parking space, I got the message on our Sync interface screen, Camera not available, Contact Dealer. And none of the screen tabs responded.
    That's not happening, and I could fill pages of why not.
    I looked online and saw many videos showing a fix. Yours, as always, was more concise.
    First I wanted to try the easy route, so I disconnected the negative battery terminal and let it sit for a few minutes.
    After reconnecting, and starting the engine, the screen showed SYNC performing maintenance.
    I gave it time to finish loading and then tried reverse. the camera worked and the screen was functional again, allowing access to Nav., music, settings, etc.
    My question to you , should I use the same process to update to the newer software available, which I've read is 3.10, as shown in your video of June 28,2014? My Ford Touch Problems-New Software Update.
    Will I have to upgrade Nav separately?
    I have a 2015 Ford Edge Sport with software 3.08.15128.EA.10
    Thank You

    • @hbic3
      @hbic3 Před 2 lety

      Yes. but yo update the Nav you have to get a new card. From Ford direct, they are over $100. Buying from a 3rd party online is sketchy. Some people are getting Blank SD cards, corrupted cards, and cards with viruses on them. Honestly, if you have a phone you can connect to the MFT, just use Google maps, Apple Maps, or something similar. Sound will play through the car. My 2014 still has the A4 card. It's already pretty accurate to my area. But I find that inputting to it, either on screen or by voice control in the car is tedious compared to just saying, "Hey Google. Start Driving directions to..." The phone audio for Google maps plays over the car system no matter what audio source it's set to.

    I have a 2016 and when I hit some of the menu options it either repeats another menu option ( Like if I’m on phone menu and I hit quick dial it switches over to quick dial but it continues to show the phone option and if I hit phonebook it shows a phone book but they never hit anything else like history or message or settings it stays on phonebook but if I hit phone the screen switches over to the phone option). So when I hit the configure button were you have all the options to I just stuff like the clock, display, sound, vehicle, setting , help, It does the same thing if I hit settings and I was on clock it doesn’t switch over to settings it stays showing the clock menu so I can’t even get to my settings to configure or reset the system. what do I do?

    • @hbic3
      @hbic3 Před 2 lety

      It's sounds like someone updated previously and then reverted back to an older version. Maybe even replaced the unit, but didn't update the unit before installing(yes, it can be done on a desk). Those files can STILL be downloaded from Ford. Even though it says you have no available updates. There SHOULD still be a link directly under where you input your VIN and it says under it that you're up to date, to download the latest file. Then follow the instructions on the Ford site, making SURE you read EVERY WORD and are using the PROPER USB format, downloading TO your Computer then and extracting the files TO THE USB, not dowoading the zip file to the USB and then extracting to the USB. The original zip file cannot be on the jump drive. Confirm, as per the Ford site, that your Jump drive contains the exact files for your Sync Version as they instruct.

    I was hoping someone could help me. My touchscreen is not responsive, SO, when I load in the upgrade in the vehicle, in order to begin the upgrade, you need to press the "OK" button on the screen. Well, my screen is not responsive so no way for me to move forward. Has anyone figured out a way to remove the opening warning screen that required the "ok" before moving forward?

    Hello. PLEASE HELP! I have a 2014 Ford Flex with My Ford Touch (with Nav). When I'm driving the radio and A/C will be on then the radio will go out and the screen will say entertainment unavailable. As for the A/C it will go out and the heat will start blowing and will not go off. I turn the car off but nothing. I even tried unplugging the fuse that helped for a couple miles in the heat comes back on and the radio stops. Also the light up buttons will not go off or work. Please tell me you know what's wrong with this crazy car.

    I downloaded the latest version of SYNC from the Ford website for my 2013 Titanium Ford Escape and to my surprise after the install it was version 3.10! Prior to the install I had version 4.30.13171_PRODUCT installed! Now I'm confused because the Ford website doesn't have the 4.30 version for me to download and reinstall. PLEASE let me know if you can tell me if version 3.10 is correct and if version 4.30 was installed previously by mistake. THANK YOU FOR MAKING THESE VIDEOS!

    • @FordTechMakuloco

      If everything on the screen seems to work and respond and just no sound then the DSP module has failed. Some have a new software for this and some may need to be replaced.

    I have a 2016 Ford F-150 I’ve done the new update I’ve took it to the dealership and it continues to lag freeze get stuck on reverse camera view ect. I’m under warranty and still am not able to get Ford to fix this problem I guess their dragging on so my warranty is up so I can go away. Not professional business in my opinion I payed a lot for my truck and to have the issues is just not right.

    Sorry not to question you but I got this update on my 2013 F150 in September of 2013 nothing is showing as new on sync my ride as of as of June of 14. I still have issues and I know others have the same issues even after this update. Two to be exact. The 911 assist reminder keeps turning itself back on, and the ambient lighting keeps resetting to another color and brightness. How do I know others have the problem. 1) wife has 2013 MKX....same problems. 2) Was in a quick lane the other week and a guy was going nuts on the Service manager about the same two issues on his 2013. So please tell me this last update they are going to do on this system.

    • @FordTechMakuloco
      @FordTechMakuloco  Před 10 lety

      As stated 90% of the issues fixed by the software but yours sounds like a hardware issue. I just fix a 2013 F150 it kept prompting the guy to run VHR even though it was turned off. It needed a new Sync module among other issues out there related to hardware failure. Hardware failure happen enough we now have a special hardware test we can use to get pass fail codes for warranty.

    Hey Brian, thanks for your great videos, I have Ford explorer 2013 with Sync CCPU S/W version 4.29.12285. It hanged and restarts almost every day, showing reverse camera while driving , don’t respond to hands free calls ….etc
    I have registered at Ford portal, and under updates, it states that “ you have the latest version” which is incorrect. Is there anyway to get the update software , ready to pay for it. Thanks

      Files are available on the internet. With little search you can find. I downloaded them. The same version as in this video. But I am not sure that it is relevant to MY Ford Explorer 2013. I am afraid to install them.

    • @hbic3
      @hbic3 Před 2 lety

      It sounds like someone did the update and then followed through with the confirmation steps to the Ford site. The. Reverted back to an older version. Although Ford says you're up to date, that file IS still available to download. Just click on the updates link, input your VIN if you have to, click on USB. You ha e to be sure to read EVERYTHING on the page because there are different instructions for Sync 2/3, files will be different. You have to make sure you're formatting your USB CORRECTLY for the Sync version you have. You'll either format FAT32 or exFAT depending on your Sync Version. Format wrong and it won't work. You also have to be sure your Engine is RUNNING BEFORE you insert the USB into the car. And STAYS running throughout the update.

      @FordTechMakuloco  Před 8 lety +1

      +robert gonzalez I have worked on many of these if it has the latest software according to the dealer a master reset is in order here with a clean pairing of the phones to the system. Also any weird lettering or emoticans in the call contacts can cause the system to lock up. On a few especially this style with the my ford touch I have had to replace quite a few APIMS for this concern after all other checks were exhausted.
