  1. Having issues updating software

    Maybe a bad battery then. Your car has a build date of August 2024, so the battery is barely a year old. If you drive the car that much, I see no reason why the battery would be so low in terms of charge/capacity. Dealer puts it on a power supply; not a trickle charger. In the case of the PCM...
  2. Having issues updating software

    @klopklop I got your message, but responding here for the sake of the info being out there. See below from your OTA dashboard in red. BMS data quality is fine, but the SoC is low at 56% and the capacity is also low at 23 out of 70 (assuming these cars come with an H6 size 12v battery). It is...
  3. Having issues updating software

    The BMS should not be reset unless the OTA is failing due to poor BMS data quality. The only way to check if that is the case is with PTS/OASIS. Most of the time, "interrupted by another process" is due to battery SoC and/or capacity being below the threshold, so the GWM won't allow the OTA to...
  4. Anyone else get an update notice?

    Interrupted by another process is 100% due to the 12v battery not being up to spec. It could be the state of charge, the capacity or the BMS data quality that is preventing it from going through. Message me the VIN and I can check.
  5. What Is Your Sync4 Version?

    The latest Sync software available for any Ford vehicle is 25094 (this may not have made its way to these cars yet; it may be released only for the F150s, Lightnings and Mach E for now). The way you decode the Sync version in terms of release date is the first two numbers of the Sync version is...
  6. OTA Update - HOW Does Ford Do This? - Over Cellular / Wifi ?

    Unless I am misunderstanding what you mean by rollback, dealers cannot roll back module firmware. They can reflash the existing firmware or update firmware, but they cannot roll it back. That can only be done with FORScan if you have a way source the files. From the vast majority of owner...
  7. Should I disable automatic OTA updates after getting a tune?

    Yes. This is the case with APIM, GWM, and TCU updates. On certain vehicles, the IPC also needs to be updated in order for more updates to these modules to become available. Most modules do not have a dependency on others to be updated, but these 3 or 4 do.
  8. Should I disable automatic OTA updates after getting a tune?

    Yes, but the tune will contain the old software strategy, so it will revert the firmware that was updated to the old version.
  9. Should I disable automatic OTA updates after getting a tune?

    That is in PTS which is Ford's dealer website. I can check recent OTA history if you send me the VIN.
  10. Anyone else get an update notice?

    Your car being a 2025 most likely has very few pending updates. If you want to save yourself the $500, I have 4 Mongoose cables I loan out for free. I require a $500 deposit which I refund once you mail it back to me. The waiting list is very short right now. Details are below...
  11. Anyone else get an update notice?

    My FDRS license expired and I didn't renew it so I can no longer check for pending module updates. Someone with FDRS or full PTS access would be able to check with your VIN.
  12. Anyone else get an update notice?

    I see it happen almost daily across multiple Ford forums. 95%+ of the time, it fixes the issue. I don't know what Ford is waiting for to fix it or at the very least, send a memo out to dealers advising them of the problem and how to fix it until they release a permanent fix...
  13. Anyone else get an update notice?

    This is a known issue across all Ford vehicles after a recent GWM software update. To fix this, you need to disconnect the negative battery cable from the 12v battery for 20 minutes. Once you reconnect the battery and check for updates again, it will make it past the spinning pinwheel on that...
  14. Should I disable automatic OTA updates after getting a tune?

    I have your VIN. That PCM update has failed a bunch of times due to low battery stats. The current PCM strategy on your car is BBF and it wants to install the BBE strategy, but your battery SoC and capacity are way too low. Who is your tuner? If it is Livernois, you can ask call support and...
  15. Should I disable automatic OTA updates after getting a tune?

    I would say depending on your tuner. Only a PCM update will wipe your tune. If you're tuned with a company like Livernois (for example), they will send you an updated tune within a few days once you upload the new stock tune to them at no cost. However, some tuners do not make it that easy (or...
  16. OTA Update - HOW Does Ford Do This? - Over Cellular / Wifi ?

    You will have issues with FDRS, too, because it is not supported in the UAE. Even signing in to FDRS through a VPN will get the account banned. If you call FDRS support and tell them you are in the UAE, they will rudely tell you they can't help you and hang up on you. If I run a VIN for a...
  17. OTA Update - HOW Does Ford Do This? - Over Cellular / Wifi ?

    OTA's will not work without reprogramming the TCU. I have tried to get it to work with vehicles in the UAE with no luck. Changing the country code alone is not enough. I also know how to simulate the procedure FDRS uses to provision a TCU using FORScan, and that does not work, either. I do not...
  18. 360 Camera Addition

    With the Sync 4 vehicles, replacing things like the APIM, GWM and/or TCU with parts from other vehicles is not a good idea. The process to update modules (whether it is with FDRS or OTA) can easily be broken by doing this. The part number of the APIM will not match what is on the server and when...
  19. OTA Update - HOW Does Ford Do This? - Over Cellular / Wifi ?

    100% of OTAs where firmware needs to be updated come in through cellular. In Ford's PTS website, you can view the OTA dashboard of a vehicle and one of the bits of info is if the OTA requires wifi or not. I have been following Ford's OTA process very diligently since the first F150 and Mach E's...
