šŸ”„šŸ”„ 2020 MAPS - EU (F10), NA (2.20) & ANZ (2.20) Maps added to Syn3 Updater šŸ”„šŸ”„

I have experienced this same issue and after extensive testing among a few members of this forum that have hybrid vehicles, we have come to the conclusion that heated seats icons on the home screen are broken in newer 3.4 builds for hybrid vehicles specifically.

Not entirely sure why it only effects hybrid vehicles, but even after making the necessary as built changes via FORScan they still donā€™t show up. I can also confirm that the only button that works and comes up is the heated steering wheel. I believe @F150Chief was involved in the conversation and he did testing with his F150 and the heated seats buttons showed up fine for him.

This is likely just something that Ford is going to have to fix in newer builds (hopefully). Anyways, further discussion would likely have to get moved to a thread of itā€™s own.

Iā€™m currently on 3.4.20351 on a MY20. Is it possible to update the maps without reformatting?

When I select the maps in the app, with autoinstall, it wants to downgrade by reformatting but then warns me not to do this if Iā€™m on a MY20. Iā€™m sure Iā€™m missing something, I just havenā€™t figured out what yet.

I hate being an idiot, but when you say ā€˜reformatā€™, you mean an update in its entirety? Just a few days ago I had updated to 3.4.20351 for NA. Just want to be sure I understand, so the exact same process as before. Thank you!

I remember a few months ago there was a discussion about ā€œFROST TELLTALEā€ and when i used Forscan all i had to do was ā€œENABLEā€ that function and @F150Chief asked me what values was i using at 720-01-02 and he actually showed me values that were possible, they were completely different at that address from what i had in my hybrid and in the case of the climate icons , it was simple, just ā€œENABLEā€ and the values did not change 1 build above 19101 but the heated and cooled icons were gone except for the heated steering wheel icon. Couldnā€™t have been forscan, concluded it was the build. Thanks for replying

in that case my mistake :slight_smile: canā€™t test everything

If your car came native with any version of 3.4, it is a MY20 apim and the reformat tool will brick it if you attempt to use the reformat.

I remember this and documented it for just such emergenciesā€¦it is specific to hybrid vehicles only.

The problem with heated seats not showing up on your home screen is due to the powerflow app being enabled in the APIM.
The app reserves the two button positions on the home screen (on the Energi it would show powerflow and the charge timer here), so thereā€™s no place for the seat buttons.

7D0-01-02 2xxx xxxx xx Enables it
7D0-01-02 0xxx xxxx xx Disables it

@IraF, you might want to see if this works for youā€¦

@sandibatch ,

ā€œReformatā€ is an entire wipe and re-install of software on the Sync APIM unit. Think of it as wiping a computer and re-installing the operating system. This wipes most settings (except asbuilt).

ā€œUpdateā€ is just that, an update for the operating system, in this case, the Sync application and associated software. This leaves all settings in place.

This would have been the ā€œUpdateā€, as you updated the app and left all settings in place.

Unless @CyanLabs knows something I donā€™t, no you cannot update the maps without reformatting using the Syn3 Updater. However, you have a 2020 vehicle, so check the Ford Navigation update site and see if you have free updates.

Ford - Sync3 Map Update (syncnavigation.com)

Thank you.

They are 2018 vehicles, and I did the thumb drive install of that build with nav. Just to clarify.

Hi, did you have to do a full downgrade/install, or is there away to just update the maps as i have 3.4.20351 f9 maps??

Hi Steve, I did do the downgrade/reformat install.

It is possible to update maps & nav voice only via autoinstall but it would take around two hours.

I had the whole thing completed in 55 minutes using the reformat method.

Cheers.

Hello. I am running 3.4.20351 and would like to go through the autodetect installation to get the F10 NA maps, but it only gives me the option for no maps or keep existing maps.

Hi I recently updated to 3.4.20351 through the official Fordwebsite. I then received a message that I had a mapupdate of 8GB waiting (the last F9 maps?).

When trying to update the maps in the car I got the MEM_ERRO1 message. Which means, if iā€™m not mistaken, that I donā€™t have enough free memory in the APIM?

Could this problem be resolved by using the reformat methode and updating immediately to the latest maps and syncversion?

Many thx.
