No we don’t have Sirius
Ok, thx. I only ask becuse I had the same problem awhile back. It’s been just long enughf that I cant remember exactly how I fixed it. I can say it was one of three things, AsBuilt, Antenna or Master Reset. I am leaning towards the antenna if I remember right as I read through these.
Hi F150 do you think updating calibration software would cause this issue ? I am going to try my sync 3 test unit in my car on the weekend that has software v3.2
Unlikely, but always possible. Let me know how you fair with the new unit.
Hi F150 I have changed over the unit. And unfortunately the same thing happens after 45 minutes of driving it started to spin again. So I’m at a lost 3 apims doing the same thing
Hi F150 i have reformatted the APIM back to 3.2 17237 and loaded 3.2 calibrations on the APIM. Hopefully this will work i will report back by end of the week.
Hi F150 just an update being on 3.2 seems to have solved the issue no spinning. I have just updated up to 3.4 and tried an aftermarket aerial soon as i updated the map spinning has reoccurred on both gps aerials.
There must be something with a 2015 Falcon and CGEA 1.3 hardware/software. Sync 3.3 supports CGEA 1.2 so it still works. I’ll see if there is any information about this…
Thanks for the update.
So weird that a lower version would fix the spinning issue. @F150Chief could it be a Firmware thing?
I think it is a reduction of support for C1CMA/CGEA 1.2 in Sync 3.4. This is mentioned by DanMc85 on his website, but it only affects specific vehicles and I thought it was tied to the newer APIM models.
@rickc
Are all 3 units upgraded to Sync 3.4 and spinning? What are the part numbers for the units?
I have part numbers for the APIMS
1st in the falcon JR3T-14G371-DFB
2nd spare unit - HJ5T-14G370-KDB
3rd - Territory HJ5T-13G371-DCA
I think the issue is the difference in electrical architecture for the vehicle vs. Sync. You could go thru your asbuilt and set any CGEA 1.3 setting to CGEA 1.2. I read this works on the C-Max vehicles with Sync 3.4.
Is this still happening when you install Sync 3.4, or is it all the time?
With these 2 issues present, It might be worth following this test procedure to see if it uncovers anything…
Hi Mate thank you the information it’s a great read through. Unfortunately no matter what sync version you are on this error still keeps coming up.
Hi F150 i have given up and decided to buy a new genuine gps aerial. Even on 3.2 it’s spinning but not as bad when on 3.4 . Looking at PTS i believe U0121 is causing the error which there is nothing that can be done about that due to canbus commands missing.
I agree with your finding. From what I have read this would be a factor…
Just an update i have installed the new genuine gps aerial. Still getting the same map spinning. Just curious what does the internal gyro do ?
Try plugging in an OBD scanner and check for errors on the vehicle
This issue must first be resolved:
I guessed this was deeper than was apparent
