Unhappy Sync 3 update

Is it important that I take the update instructions to my truck? Unfortunately clicking on view instructions gets me nothing.

Step 3 of 4

Already know how to do this step? Move on to Step 4 >
  1. You will need to follow a set of instructions while in your vehicle on how to install the files in your vehicle.

    SYNC with Navigation: You can view the instructions here.

    SYNC without Navigation: You can view the instructions here.

  2. Take the loaded USB drive and update instructions to your vehicle.

Insert USB drive start truck sit back and wait. Nothing shows on screen while it starts. Everything looks normal. Look at USB drive if it has an LED and see if blinking

Have you downloaded the update onto the flash drive?

If so:

Start truck, insert thumb drive and go. Or let it idle while its loading.

It may take several minutes before you get a notification that the update is loading. Be patient.

Thanks. Somehow I got it updated. My question now is about potting the USB drive back in my PC to update the website. Could I have seen somewhere that this will eventually update itself?

If your hooked up to wifi, it will take care of itself. Give it a week or so, then check the owners site.

Its no big deal if not, you will get all notifications of a new update as released.
