"Does SYNC 3.4 for my 2017 Ford Escape include maps for West Africa? Can I change the region setting from North America to West Africa (Nigeria) during the update, and if so, how?"

My Ford Escape 2017 Titanium model came with NA maps. I recently updated it to sync 3.4. It would be great if the maps can be changed as per region. Is this possible and how to do it?


SYNC Region: NA

Navigation Variant: Nav

Manufacturer Year: Pre MY20

Install Type: Unknown

Old SYNC Version: 3.2.16074

New SYNC Version: 3.4.23188

Do you have a error message, if so what is it?
N.A

Update Method: CyanLabs Syn3 Updater

Syn3 Updater Version: 2.13.0.0

Syn3 Updater Documentation Read: yes

Syn3 Updater Log File

Did not copy the log files after update as the flash was formatted. 

We do not support changing regions, but you can always read the following thread for guidance → Tutorial: Installation of ROW (NNG) Maps on NA 32GB Sync 3 APIM

Thank you for this feedback, it was super helpful. I can see there is need to use FORScan first and it shows license sale has been suspended. Does this mean i have to get the OBD? Sorry its abit confusing for me.

For basic things like asbuilt changes I believe you do not require a license.

Last time i checked you needed a license for any ForScan action but you can use the trial licenses for basic functionality.
