SYNC 3 not turning off

hi guys!
ive recently updated my sync 3 in my 2016 px2 ford ranger via FORSCAN 2,4 to gain the function of heated seats on the touch screen, i also loaded an asbuilt from the model above mine which has this.

i have ironed out all the DTC’S that came with this along with navigation not working and it thinking its an EV

but i have the issue of it not turning off when the key is cycled off. playing with the values in APIM 7D0 01 01 in relation to master clock lets the unit half turn off but i am then left with the screen on displaying date and time, (not in deep sleep) which i have enabled.
the values i have in 7d0 are 899F-04DA-1352

The factory value is
0A6A 24DA but this leaves me with it not turning off at all.

Navigation Variant: Nav

Manufacturer Year: Pre MY20

Do you have a error message, if so what is it?

Update Method: Official Ford

Ended up playing with Master clock settings. for anyones future reference APIM is the master, problem solved.

Thats not true in many cases. There are many factors on what module is the master clock. The APIM is on a type A. On type B & C the APIM is a slave.
