Guys, I will be going on vacation on a cruise tomorrow. I will excommunicado for a week. Any VIN check requests will have to wait a bit.

 

Have an AWESOME time!! You deserve it! Thanks for all you do for everyone!

 

Enjoy your cruise!!!! 🍷

 

I can do VIN checks in the meantime. Enjoy your trip!

 

mind checking my truck? Have owned since Nov, don’t think I’ve received a single update

New here. Shocked how many people are in the same situation with OTA updates. I called trying to get info on my trucks updates that seem non existent. Can someone give my VIN a quick check? Appreciate it.

No OTA pending and no OTA in the past 60 days. You are on SYNC version 21233 per PTS so its an indication that you aren't stuck in limbo but you are likely just waiting for some OTA love.

 

Mind checking mine, please?

2022 that I picked up in Oct, but haven’t had a single update.

I am having issues with 2.8.1, says it's pending in my Ford Pass app but won't download to the truck. The check for updates in the truck says there are none. Anyone have any info they can provide? Customer service said ignore it...but it would be nice to know where I really stand on my updates. The app says it sent the update on 1/26/23.
My VIN is 1FTFW1E84MFA81648 is some one could run a VIN check.

 

Below is my post from back in February when I finely was able to get 2.8.1 to load....

I don't believe it, after 4 months I got 2.8.1 to load!

I let the battery get fully charged before the second attempt today. With the battery charger and VOM connected, I started the update. This time while watching the volt meter, when I noticed the battery voltage dropping down to around 12.5V I kicked the battery charger from 10A to 50A setting. Battery voltage came up to about 13.6V. The screen was still showing the "Preparing Updates" spinning circle. Then for the first time I got to the actual update screen with the bar graph on the bottom. I changed the charger back to 10A, and the battery voltage stayed about 12.7V until the update was done.

So 2 years after my truck was built, 22 months since taking delivery, I hope I finely catch up with the updates. Back in October I tried to get this to load over a dozen times, several times with the battery charger connected set at 10A. Note I had the truck into the dealer recently and specifically asked them to test the battery, which they claim it tested good. If my battery is good, there is NO WAY this update can be done without a battery charger. I suspect the update does a load test on the battery before kicking off the update (which I got past by switching the charger to 50A).

More notes, I had the battery charger connected with the hood closed. It is my belief even a 10A battery charger is not enough, I had to kick it up to 50A for a time to make it work (watching battery voltage. Maybe a bit of voodoo magic is needed also.
