SYNC 4 Ford Ranger (Asia/America market) - Need French language pack - Software 23151_PRODUCT

Hi everyone,

I have a Ford Ranger equipped with SYNC 4, currently configured for the
Asia/America market. The only display languages available in the menu
are English and Chinese.

I need to add/switch to French, but it’s not listed as an option in the
system settings.

My current system details (from About SYNC menu):

  • SYNC 4 Software Version: 23151_PRODUCT
  • Revision: 902
  • Manufacturer: Ford Motor Company

Does anyone know:

  1. Which language pack / firmware part number I need to get French added
    on this software version?
  2. Whether I also need to change the region/market code (As-Built) via
    FORScan for the language option to appear?
  3. Any compatibility risks I should be aware of before flashing?

I’d rather avoid bricking the APIM, so any guidance from someone who’s
done this on a similar Ranger (Nextgen/Asia-Pacific market) would be
greatly appreciated. Happy to share more As-Built data or VIN details
(privately) if needed.

Thanks in advance!
