;Gen 3 - Assembly Update - NonNav/NA - 18025 - FRASER

However you managed to install 18025 before March 17, 2018, I'd say there is nothing to worry about.

I have the same problem and I am on version 17276? I would really like to do a clean install on a supported version but can not downgrade or upgrade to this version. The 2.2 downgrade process does not work either, do you know any way to force an upgrade?

I believe what Nickfontenot was trying to say, was he has an older build of 3.0 & wasn't able to install build 18025 over it.
I'm on build 17194 of 3.0 - it's been said that you need to roll back to 2.2/2.3 before installing 3.0 build 18025

Yea it appears Ford has removed the 2.2 files. I posted on the downgrade thread, https://www.f150forum.com/f118/howto...98097/index13/

Hopefully someone can help me downgrade so I can do this upgrade.

Try going over to the thread I linked a few posts above. If that procedure doesn't help maybe the OP can.

I have tried it eight ways from Sunday and can not get past "Your Software is already up to date". I appreciate the help, I tried the file referenced with the same results. I will keep working the 2-3 threads to see if I can find a break through.

When you guys extract it, do you have to create a SyncMyRide folder, move all the SyncMyRide zips into it, and then delete the front part of the filer that says SyncMyRide?

I plug it in, it sees my drive, but the light on the flash drive is not lit, ie the drive isn’t thinking. I’ve done the updates before, not sure what I’m missing...on a mac if it matters.

I updated mine today. My truck was built 3/1 and I took delivery Saturday and updated today.

The upgrade went as expected, but it took quite a while to show "upgrading" after I put in the thumb drive.

My 16 Nav took at least 5 min going from 2.2 to show updating, will not show anything when first inserted.
Took a bit to figure out as I thought nothing was working, but is now at version 3.0.

Anyone have a change log?

^^ This. 5 - 10 minutes will elapse after inserting USB before you see the UPDATING message. If your drive has an led it should be flashing occasionally; mine was.
