Updating APIM Firmware (Calibration Files)

Did you flash all of the files at once? For EU this is necessary.

You loaded the Logo file? 1U5T-14G658-AH

Today update All firmware files and Sync work, calm screen work, 7D0-02-03 block changed to X 6 XX-XX. Still no FM logos. Ho to manualy install only 1U5T-14G658-AH file to be sure logos are installed? Any other ideas?

This is a 2013 Escape that came from the US? If so, the radio will need to be changed to an EU model for DAB support. US radios donā€™t do DAB.

Car is from US radio is EU (i think so). Car came from US with sync 2 installed i bought sync 3 in Poland.

Unless you changed the radio with the Sync 3 upgrade, it acts like it is a US radio. You can find the AHU part number in the Sync APIM IVSU versions screen in the test menu.
Has the ACM and APIM asbuilt been changed to EU configuration?
Do you have the 1U5T-14G658-AH file installed?

Iā€™ve been reading the forums for a long time, and have successfully updated from Sync 3.0 to the latest Sync 3.4 with mods, but apparently flew too close to the sun with this calibration update, and somehow managed to get myself in a situation that I havenā€™t seen before.

I tried to update to:
GB5T-14G376-AA
1U5T-14G374-DA
1U5T-14G375-DA.

The log said the firmware update was successful, but Iā€™m bricked :-(. Confusing messageā€¦

My screen has been black since then. Somehow I flashed the ā€œImage (USB, 8033)ā€ section. I was able to restore everything back to the original version except the Image. Is there a way to recover this, or did curiosity cost me an APIM?

Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!

Hello, Iā€™m trying to figure out which firmware to update my apim to. I have a 14 focus st with sync 3.4 on the 220 firmware

The image file is not applicable in FORScan. This is the Sync application that you load thru USB. Ignore that line entry.

Since you have one of the first versions of Sync 3 APIM, which are quite finicky to upgrade, I would not recommend going any further than below:

3.0 APIM NAV & NON-NAV Unit Firmware (Production Release, 2017-Pre-2018.5, H-Early J Series)
(Originally Found On 2017/Early 2018 Units That Ship with 2 USB Ports on Back)
GB5T-14G376-AA
HB5T-14G374-CA
HB5T-14G375-DA or HB5T-14G375-FA (HB5T-14G375-CA NON-NAV)
GB5T-14G379-AA
HB5T-14G379-BA

Thanks so much. Where can I get those files from? As Iā€™ve noticed that Motorcraft link doesnā€™t work?

Updated fine but changing this from 2 to 6 causes navigation to fault. Leaving it as 2 with latest sync 3.4 works fine. Radio logos work before/after firmware update.

Switching between DAB channels such as DAB National to Local is a bit faster now but not as quick as cars that come pre-loaded with sync 3.4. (2019 Ecosport for example). Master reset also done. (Example try switch between Radio 1 to Capital, used to be 10 second delay, now itā€™s down to 2/3 seconds)

Hello there !
Iā€™m searching for help to update the Apim on my car
I want the calm mode and radio logo.
For the moment, the Sync 3 (Europe with navigation) is on the 3.0 version, I understand that I need to update also the sync (cyanlabs USB key is ready :slight_smile: )

Which firmware must I use to update the apim ?
Thanks !

This is an imported 2017 Mustang, keep in mind that the APIM is 32GB and will not fit the full set of EU maps, unless it is replaced with an EU version APIM.

It was previously changed by the importer most likely. Well, thatā€™s good that itā€™s 64GB so you can just load everything.

Use these files to upgrade the firmware:
GB5T-14G376-AA
HB5T-14G374-CA
HB5T-14G375-FA
GB5T-14G379-AA
HB5T-14G379-BA

Again, thanks for your support ! :pray:

i


need to activate the 7D0-09-xx menus. Center stack menus in the database

You should be able to activate the menus that apply to your vehicle with the present firmware. Your vehicle will not support most of the 7D0-08 and 7D0-09 items.
