Asbuilt looks ok.
So, you will need to translate the axis change and try some asbuilt entries. The APIM is now sitting flat on the rear of the unit, I assume. Keep in mind that the axis relationship of the APIM does not relate to the screen, it is the way the gyro is mounted in the APIM. The gyro must be aligned for the GNSS INS navigation to perform properly.
The OEM asbuilt shows…
7D0G7G2 0000 6428 006C (6C is the checksum so ignore it.)
7D0G7G3 00
This equates to…
x = 0000 HEX=DECx0.006+0=Value (degrees) = 0
y = 6428 HEX=DECx0.006+0=Value (degrees) = 25.64
z = 0000 HEX=DECx0.006+0=Value (degrees) = 0
For perspective, my 2015 F-150 with Sync 3 mounted to the screen at a very slight tilt shows these values at…
7D0G7G2 0000 029A 007C (7C is the checksum so ignore it.)
7D0G7G3 00
This equates to…
x = 0000 HEX=DECx0.006+0=Value (degrees) = 0
y = 029A HEX=DECx0.006+0=Value (degrees) = 3.996
z = 0000 HEX=DECx0.006+0=Value (degrees) = 0
My 2019 Nautilus with Sync 3 mounted to the screen at a more laid-back tilt shows these values at…
7D0G7G2 0000 19B7 00B0 (B0 is the checksum so ignore it.)
7D0G7G3 00
This equates to…
x = 0000 HEX=DECx0.006+0=Value (degrees) = 0
y = 19B7 HEX=DECx0.006+0=Value (degrees) = 39.498
z = 0000 HEX=DECx0.006+0=Value (degrees) = 0
Let’s assume that your APIM is in the same orientation but just laid back flat in relation to the vehicle. This would require the value to be changed to reflect the APIM lying horizontal. This does not change the axis definitions, just the values.
I would say that a value of 90 degrees would be what is needed. So, this would be, using the reciprocal of .006…
y = 3A98 HEX=DECx166.666+0=Value (degrees) = 90.00
(90x166.66=14.999.94=HEX 3A98)
(Rounded to 15,000)
Your new value…
7D0G7G2 0000 3A98 00xx (xx is the checksum so ignore it.)
Input this value, let FORScan figure that checksum and write. Make sure the APIM is ignition cycled. See how it works. Remember, the GPS must be working correctly, and clock also.
Here is an informative article on how GNSS INS works.

As a footnote, Sync 4 in a 2021+ F-150 is mounted down in the dash, not to the screens. The mounting of the APIM is rotated to the front on the Z axis, therefore required a change to the Z axis to 180 degrees from 0 degrees on 2020 and older Sync 3 vehicles. The X and Y axis’ are straight, or 0 degrees. This mounting configuration is common to the Sync 4 platforms.
Post a pic of the APIM install in your vehicle to determine the proper positioning of the APIM in relation to the axis’.
