SYNC 1 to SYNC 3 Upgrade now sound is extremely low.

[richardbalagtas]

I upgraded to sync 3 from auto climate 4 inch sync 1 on my ford fusion 2016 hybrid. Everything looks good but the volume on max sounds really low and I didn’t have any volume issues before the install. Is there anything i can change on ACM on forescan to maybe change the output of the volume i read on some other places that the setting is lower on the acm of the sync 3 apim so it can get powered by factory amp. Any info would help. thank you

ACM should be fine, you should be using your factory AB.
The config of the APIM would be one possible issue if it is set to have the Sony DSP, the other possible issue is the firmware/calibration and config of the FCIM.
When I changed out the FCIM on my 2014 SE Hybrid to get rid of the cap touch buttons and dropped in one from a 2016 SE I had to load my factory AB into the FCIM to get the audio to behave correctly.
