Unmount the unit and share a picture of its sticker.

Also use an actual good quality USB flash drive, not an SD card reader.

No no, the sticker on the back please…

Ill do it tomorrow, is it repairable or do I find a new one? I knew it was word on when I saw 1 mounting screw missing !!

Yea wrong sticker but that is still not a good sign if it has that date.

Yep, as said before, it’s not looking good…
But we need to see the APIM model…

I am in the same boat buddy. I just got mine from Ebay, and they had to set my VIN on it. It was 350 USD. Or you can get it from China which is 259 USD. I just needed something asap and did an overnight shipping.

Also replacing isn’t that hard it seems, I wish there was a video or something. Mine is a 2018 Lincol Navigator, and it is under the dash, directly under the shift buttons

Thank you for the pictures… Please do not send consecutive messages, put all the information in a single message or use the edit button to add information.

Yep, that confirms what we all knew, it’s MY20.
I know this won’t help you in your current state, but if unsure always let Syn3Updater check…

That APIM is flagged as MY20, should Syn3Updater had checked it would have prevented this.

About options, you can try reviving it by using this as guide → GitHub - bigunclemax/sync3flash: Ford Sync 3 reformat flash tool
It’s not for everyone, but that will be up to you…

Also, since you are NA based you can get in touch with Naviupgrade, he does recoveries as well…

I’m new. It said 1 picture per post.

Since you’ve got it out, Naviupgrade offers a recovery service on his site.

Just did the purchase.!!!

I’ve changed your user’s status, it should not happen again.

Great!, I hope everything works out.

Thanks!!
I bought a 2017 Expedition 3 weeks ago and no clue a new radio was put in.
$200.a lot better then $550.ishhhhh

ANY idea how to get in touch with Navupgrade? No phone numbers. That “contact us”
is useless. I keep getting error message
