Sync 2-Sync 3 upgrade GPS Nav not accurate when driving

codiehudson · 2 May 2025 13:49

I recently did a sync 2- sync 3 upgrade from a 2016 Ford Focus ST to a 2015 Ford F-150 XLT. I’m having issues with the gps locating right. I did change the as built but I believe there may be a problem with it. I got the antenna off Amazon and sometimes when I start the truck it will use the right location. It’s only when driving it will either dose off or be tracking way ahead of the vehicle.

If any can help that would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried a master reset of sync?

warlock12118 · 2 May 2025 22:10

Where did you get the APIM config from?
You can’t use the one from a Focus in an F150 without making changes, nor can you use your factory AsBuilt APIM config because that’s for an entirely different APIM.

Yes I did a master reset.

codiehudson · 2 May 2025 22:17

I used forscan files and copied my sync 2 as built over to sync 3. And I understand sync 2 config is not the same as sync 3 so any other files they were wrong when comparing I changed. I got my as built from ford website

First mistake was copying anything over from your Sync2 factory AsBuilt at all.
Please export your current APIM config from ForScan so that we can look at it to see what needs to be changed.

I have attached it.

codiehudson · 5 May 2025 15:20

Is that the forscan as built you needed or do I need to export it a different way?
