Am I the only one who got 2.8.2 on 6/21 but haven't got 2.8.3 yet? Also noticed that my sync4 wasn't updated by 2.8.2, and it's still on a very old version, which is 21136_Product, revision 134.

My 2.8.3 just showed up today, so hopefully yours will get there soon. Also got an email about BlueCruise now being active. Honestly, I'm more excited about the fact that I can now use the bed camera to check cargo while driving. Always thought it was overly limiting to not be able to check the bed while moving as that is one of the most obvious use cases I can imagine for that camera.

Thank you for your reply! I have been able to use the bed camera while moving since I got my truck in 2021/10. If camera was enabled at low speed, it would be turned off when moving faster. However, re-push the camera button would have it always enabled. Does that mean it's possible my truck had 2.8.3 capability since the beginning?

I had a feeling that it was doing an update. When I tried to access ford pass, it wasn't telling me about the most recent version anymore. I don't understand where is it downloading updates from. It seems that's it been happening at a rapid pace. I would not be surprised if another is q up and ready to go.

I have been following your progress since I'm experiencing the same thing with 2.8.1. I am on day 10 or so. Was there something different that you tried this time? Did you reset the APIM as suggested rugedraw?

I'm glad you got yours to go though; Thanks!

They download from Ford's servers. No more OTA's in your queue, but that's not surprising considering you just got one.

Can someone check to see if I have failed downloads? I’m having wi-fi connectivity issues. Thanks!

Incredibly enough, you have 2.6.0 downloading onto your truck as I type this.

I don't see failed downloads, but it does say "Update to start file download" repeatedly for the past few days. If the wi-fi is spotty, turn it off and let it do it on it's own. Wi-Fi is not required for this update and your OTA campaign is going to expire on July 14th. If it does not update by then, you will have to wait who knows how long before it is sent to your truck again.

Thanks that’s what I was looking for. My wi-fi keeps disconnecting and I wasn’t sure it was working.

I edited my post. Read it again. What happens when you to system updates on the touchscreen? Does it let you check for updates?
