Default INSTL_ERR02 - Sync 3

An error code started popping up a few days ago each time I start my 2018 Lariat. I have auto-update enabled, so it looks like it tried to update itself and somehow got hung up. I've manually checked for updates and it says that there are no updates found. After I close the error window, the system functions normally. Any suggestions before I call the 1-800 number? I suppose I can do a factory reset, but would rather not if there is another option to fix it.

I had this error pop up too within the last few days. i think an update when south at some point because my whole system was crashing/restarting every 30 seconds or so. i attempted to scan for an update and it found one, it would get about half way through and the system would restart again, constant restarts!

i solved it by downloading the update via usb and applying that way, the update was successful and it hasn't restarted or threw an error code since.

i was at my wits end. i tried a master reset, removing battery cables, nothing would solve the constant restarts. until the update.
